Toronto Marlies Thread

Marlies lose 3-2 in OT. Nylander line looked good in OT, but couldn't score and Loov got caught trying to keep the puck in which led to a 3 on 1 rush for the winning goal.
 
Kyle Cicerella
Dineen says Percy still suffering from upper body injury. No specifics but not concussion. Can't give a time line for a return yet

The kid can't stay healthy this year.
 
Doesn't seem like it's this year either ... I remember going to Mississauga to watch him play the year after he was drafted and he was out because of a long injury too ...

Your posting style is similar to a subdued...very subdued version of a former board member who was somewhat of a local celebrity for his....well...eccentricities.

Some of the members think that you're an alt account of his. If you're not actually him, take it as a compliment. He was well liked in his more lucid periods.
 
William Nylander and Connor Brown, 2 reasons to go see the Marlies if your looking for Leafs optimism. Both could make an impact next year with us, hence why I would love to dump Bozak and Lupul.

I'd look really hard into a Lupul for Berglund trade. His 5 on 5 P/60 is in the same range as Holland and Bozak, so it's not like we would be losing anything offensively. He's a possession beast, has shown the ability to put up 40-50 points in a season, is still only 26. His contract is only 2 more years after this at 3.7, so there's some cap savings as well. If he puts it all together with more minutes and better line mates, maybe we have a pretty ideal #2C behind Kadri, even if not as his contract winds down he becomes a pretty valuable trade chip as an in prime #2B or #3A type centre for a good team loading up for a playoff run. Definitely the type of guy that has landed a 1st at deadline day in the past.

As for Bozak, yeah, I'd like to see him go, and preferably to someone who is fooled by his raw offensive totals and thinks he can be a good #2 centre for them. No idea where though, unlike Lupul, there haven't been any reported rumblings about him being shopped to a specific destination.

I wasn't sure that Brown would end up being anything, but you really notice him on the ice. He's very offensively gifted and a better skater than I thought.
