I am so excited about this guy's game, that is a phenomenal start as a pro, kid is very composed.

Its early, but since the playoffs last year he seems to have found another gear.

Nice to be able to develop a top goalie prospect that will make the team in a year or two. Gives the Leafs some future options with Reimer a part of a trade package. I feel something in the air with Edmonton by the way.

Apparently Leivo is playing LW for the Marlies? Clearly this is preparation for a blockbuster trade involving Lupul.

Am I the only one whom feels a "big trade" is in the air? Perhaps Carlyle for Eakins?LOL

Thanks for the lesson in Engrish. Reminds me of my favorite book, Horton Hires a W_____
You fill in the blanks.

Who's on First? I don't know. He plays third?one of the best skits of all time.

What the Marlies outscored 8-1 in the last 2 games, starting to look like the parent club.

Is it assumed that Percy being sent down today is purely a cap savings move, and that he'll be recalled in a few days?

I don't think that can be assumed, no.

It's definitely a possibility - some of the media types are speculating the same thing - but, I'm not sure there's enough cap savings in it to be worthwhile. My guess is they just decided he needs more seasoning. I imagine we'll see a corresponding move in the next couple days.

His play in the last two games was deteriorating, better to let him develop a bit more there or Randy will ruin the lad.

what happened to Marlies updates, its like they are playing on the moon this year, we used to have such a great prospect and Marlies update section. I don't even know where to look for this information, used to be regular weekly blogs on everything.
It like were living in a vacum and that vacum unfortunately is a Dyson

Thanks Andy thats appreciated, but we used to get a lot more blogs on the prospects/Marlies for independants, not the spoon fed team site.
Marlies lines tonight, per @KyleTheReporter:
Booth Carrick Brown
Broll McMillan Frattin
Bodie Findlay Abbott
Devane Watling Biggs
Loov Nilsson
Finn Holzer
MacWilliam Mikkelson
McKegg, Percy, and Granberg are all apparently out with injuries. No word on their seriousness yet, maybe post-game. But with McKegg hurt, Smith up with the Leafs, and Kontiola being a bust and then leaving the team, the Marlies centre depth if god-awful. Big reason for their lack of success probably.
