Mac Hollowell to make NHL tonight.

A hockey player from Niagara Falls will make his NHL debut with the Toronto Maple Leafs tonight.

Mac Hollowell, who has spent several seasons with the Toronto Marlies, says he's been waiting for this moment since he was a child.

Leafs coach Sheldon Keefe says Hollowell has a good speed and it's time to move him up from the minors.

His debut will be against the New Jersey Devils, who are chasing their 14th consecutive win.

Meanwhile, the Leafs have been plagued with injuries with Morgan Reilly, Jake Muzzin and T.J Brodie on the injured list.
