Maple Leafs' Dennis Hildeby: Tending twine Wednesday

Hildeby will defend the cage on the road versus Ottawa on Wednesday, Luke Fox of Sportsnet reports.

Analysis:

Hildeby hasn't appeared in an NHL game since Jan. 19 versus the Wild. Overall, the 24-year-old netminder has posted a 5-6-4 record, 2.90 GAA and one shutout in 19 games for the Leafs. Heading into next season, Hildeby will need to edge out Joseph Woll or Anthony Stolarz (lower body) for a spot on the Opening Night roster.
