I am really missing all the prospect updates that PPP used to do on a weekly basis. Don't know what is going on over there, but it would be nice to have some of our prospect reports from N.A and Europe. Also more updates on the Growlers and a bit more on the Marlies.

Marlies win 5-2.
Kossila was man of the match. Scored two very nice goals. Bracco had a nice assist on the first goal but was pretty quiet the rest of the game.
I liked Hollowell on the back end. Kid really knows how to jump into the play and has good offensive vision. Also he was paired with Harpur so he gets extra marks for surviving that.
Liljegren wasn't really that noticeable.
Players that should never get called up to the Leafs: Harpur. He's very bad.
Korshkov scored, looked alright. Agostino and Aberg also were good on the night. Aberg scored on a nice tip.

Mason Marchment has been on a tear with the Marlies since returning from his stint with the Leafs. Had a hat trick first game back and been in on most of the other goals since then.
He is making a case for himself to be back on the big team.

Bringing guys up is a confidence booster and it looks like he liked how it was up with the big club. I think he'll be back before the year is, maybe after trade deadline.Highlander said:
A hat trick is definitely nice, but Marchment doesn't seem like a player who is going to make the NHL because of his scoring. If his physical game doesn't show up at the NHL level he's toast.

That's what I like about him, he has the sandpaper and also some scoring skills. We need a guy like him on the team, as the Goat wouldn't hurt a fly.
Marlies this season under Keefe:
10-2-3
Marlies this season under MacLean/Davison:
7-5-0
Marlies this season under Moore:
4-9-1
I'm not an observant Marlies guy so I don't want to blame this all on Moore. There's probably some other factors here as well like Sandin being away for all but 2 games while he was behind the bench. But the Marlies are now in danger of falling out of a playoff spot. They occupy the last spot in their division but have 2 teams right behind them.

Brooks would be another one, he's only played 2 games with Moore. Hopefully they can turn things back around soon.

Forgot about Brooks and didn't even realize how much of a contributor he was with the Marlies, 16 points in 20 games. But yeah, probably a bunch of factors. Lose your best d-man in Sandin, guys like Engvall and Brooks and iffy goaltending, plus the brand new coach isn't as familiar with the team and which buttons he can press etc.

A good article reviewing all of the Marlies so far this season. I found it pretty interesting that he gave Liljegren a slightly higher grade than Sandin. Also backs up a comment I made earlier that Agostino should absolutely get the call the next time a forward goes down. Also jesus Ben Harpur wyd?

Brazeau and Dusczak are already both too good for the ECHL. Given the Marlies struggles, I wonder if they give one or both a longer look.

Haha. Don't know if he'll ever make it with the Leafs but Bracco sure can skate. Seems to be making, a better defensive effort then I remember from before. Scott Pooley has had a really good game and Kilihalme, Liljegren look good on D. 1 period to go, Marlies up 5-2.Zee said:
