The Maple Leafs bolstered their defense Wednesday by acquiring Ryan O'Byrne from the Avalanche for a fourth-round draft pick in 2014, according to an ESPN.com report.
O'Byrne has a goal and three assists in 34 games this season for Colorado, which currently owns the worst mark in the NHL.
The Leafs also announced the signing of defenseman Andrew MacWilliam to a two-year entry level contract. MacWilliam, 23, was selected by Toronto in the seventh round of the 2008 draft.
