Don't they play the same system as the Marlies? I thought I read the systems are exactly the same to keep it easy for guys coming up?

I freely admit I don't follow the AHL at all, but just a quick look at the Marlies season, I see that McIntyre faced an average of 30 shots against per game over 48 games, so that alone seems like a better stat than what the Leafs were doing. Marlies aren't wildly outshot every game so they must be doing something right.

As a boy Shanahan?s parents would let him figure things out for himself, as parents do with their youngest children. ?I wasn?t over-coached,? is the way he puts it. ?When I fell, no one picked me up. I picked myself up.?
...
?I?m interested in people,? Shanahan says, in a dark blue suit with a white shirt. ?I like to have dinner with interesting people. I?m curious about people. There were teammates who didn?t want to go to dinner with me because the dinners were three hours. I don?t have dinner; I dine. I never understood NHL players that had room service.
?To me, I?ve always recognized when I?m in a good place, and it?s probably something that helped me as a player, and helped dictate the style that I played. I didn?t want to leave any stones unturned. I take sides, I have opinions. It?s not a safe way to live.?

Joe S. said:So on primetime yesterday they seemed to be making a big deal that neither Nonis nor Shanahan live in Toronto. Nonis lives in New Hampshire and Shanahan in Manhattan.
Should we care about this? Is this odd?
This does seem a little weird to me - but maybe this is normal now? I'm not sure what to make of this.

Nonis will be taking up full-time residence in Toronto, something he has never done before. His wife and teenage son live in New Hampshire. They won?t be moving here.

Well done.

Not to mention that where they live makes not one whit of difference in today's world.
