Engvall received a match penalty for the incident during Toronto’s 5-0 victory on Thursday night.
The 26-year-old also scored a power-play goal before receiving the penalty and subsequently was ejected from the game.

In 27 games this season, the former seventh-round pick has four goals and seven points — including two goals in Toronto’s last four games.
The Maple Leafs’ next game comes Saturday night when they welcome the Calgary Flames to Toronto.
