|---|---|---|
| Jan. 6, 2026 | Rifai was assigned to AHL Toronto on Tuesday, per the NHL media site. - The Maple Leafs activated Brandon Carlo (foot) from injured reserve in a corresponding move. Rifai has two assists in five minor-league outings this season. | None |
| Jan. 5, 2026 | Rifai was recalled from AHL Toronto on Monday. - Rifai's promotion comes as Jake McCabe suffered an undisclosed injury against the Islanders on Saturday. Still, even if McCabe does miss time, the 27-year-old Rifai is far from a lock to step into the lineup, as he'll need to edge out the likes of Philippe Myers for playing time. | None |
| Dec. 28, 2025 | Rifai (wrist) was placed on waivers Sunday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports. - Rifai suffered a wrist injury during the preseason that required surgery in late September. Assuming he clears waivers, he will report to AHL Toronto. | None |
| Dec. 18, 2025 | Rifai (wrist) was reassigned to AHL Toronto on a conditioning assignment Thursday. - Rifai has yet to get into a game this year, but would appear to be progressing with his stint in the minors. The Marlies play against AHL Belleville on Saturday and Sunday, so it's possible that Rifai will be recalled ahead of the Maple Leafs' clash with Pittsburgh on Tuesday. | None |
| Dec. 12, 2025 | Rifai (wrist) could make his season debut Saturday against the Oilers, Lance Hornby of The Toronto Sun reports Friday. - Rifai is currently on long-term injured reserve, as he underwent wrist surgery during training camp. The 27-year-old blueliner played a pair of games with the Maple Leafs during the 2023-24 campaign, but otherwise he has been a career minor leaguer. The Maple Leafs are really hurting on the blue line and they may be forced to use Rifai, if Oliver Ekman-Larsson (lower body) is unable to play. | None |
| Oct. 6, 2025 | Rifai (wrist) landed on long-term injured reserve Monday, per PuckPedia. - Rifai was injured in late September during preseason play and underwent wrist surgery as a result. The 27-year-old seemingly will not be ready to return any time soon, and he'll likely be reassigned to AHL Toronto once he's fully healthy. | None |
| Sept. 26, 2025 | Rifai will undergo wrist surgery and will be out of action for an undisclosed period, Lance Hornby of The Toronto Sun reports Friday. - Rifai was injured during Thursday's preseason game versus Montreal.

| March 2, 2025 | Rifai was sent to AHL Toronto on Sunday, PuckPedia reports. - Rifai was recalled by the Maple Leafs on Friday, but he didn't make his NHL season debut during his stint with the club.

| Feb. 28, 2025 | Rifai was recalled from AHL Toronto on Friday. - Rifai hasn't yet made an appearance in the NHL this season, but he'll rejoin the Maple Leafs after Max Pacioretty (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve.

| Jan. 15, 2025 | Rifai was reassigned to AHL Toronto on Wednesday. - Rifai hasn't appeared in a game for the Maple Leafs yet in 2024-25, but he has been up with the NHL squad on occasion to provide depth. He has two goals, four points and 24 PIM in 26 appearances in the AHL this season. | None |
| Jan. 6, 2025 | Rifai was elevated from AHL Toronto on Monday. - Rifai's promotion comes as Jake McCabe (upper body) was placed on injured reserve in a corresponding move. Even with his promotion, the 26-year-old Rifai is far from a lock to suit up against the Flyers on Tuesday, as Conor Timmins likely has the inside track for a spot in the lineup. | None |
| Jan. 3, 2025 | Rifai was reassigned to AHL Toronto on Friday. - Rifai has been a healthy scratch in all seven games he has been recalled for by the Maple Leafs. Rafai had two goals and two assists in 24 AHL games before his recall. | None |
| Dec. 31, 2024 | Rifai was recalled by the Maple Leafs on Tuesday. - Rifai spent the past few weeks with AHL Toronto, but he'll rejoin the NHL club ahead of Tuesday's game against the Islanders since Oliver Ekman-Larsson (illness) and Pontus Holmberg (illness) have been ruled out. Rifai made just two appearances for the Maple Leafs last year and hasn't yet appeared in the NHL this season, so he'll likely serve as an additional depth option while the club is shorthanded. | None |
| Dec. 12, 2024 | Rifai was reassigned to AHL Toronto on Thursday. - Rifai has yet to play in the NHL this season and has been a healthy scratch in all five contests in which he was recalled.

He will be an option for Monday's game against Chicago but could be a healthy scratch. | None |
| Oct. 6, 2024 | Rifai was put on waivers Sunday, according to Chris Johnston of The Athletic. - Rifai supplied two goals and 19 points in 57 contests for AHL Toronto during the 2023-24 regular season. He could see playing time with the Maple Leafs in 2024-25, assuming he doesn't get claimed by another team. | None |
| Sept. 5, 2024 | Rifai signed a two-year, $1.55 million contract extension with the Maple Leafs on Thursday. - Rifai made his NHL debut in 2023-24, playing a pair of regular-season games with the Maple Leafs. The 26-year-old defenseman spent most of the season with AHL Toronto, scoring twice while adding 17 assists in 57 contests. He exploded in the playoffs with three goals and an assist in four games. Rafai is currently a depth defenseman in the Maple Leafs' organization, and he would need an injury or two to crack the lineup. | None |
| April 2, 2024 | Rifai was reassigned to AHL Toronto on Tuesday. - Rifai was a healthy scratch for Monday's win over Florida after being promoted to the big club earlier in the day. He's gone pointless through two top-level appearances this year. | None |
