If anyone else has talked themselves into having an interest in the Marlies, they are playing St Johns tonight at 6pm and it is live on Rogers TV.

Look like Loov is still practicing the ol open ice hit: For Scherbak, who took a huge open-ice hit from Viktor Loov, it was his first game back after missing six with a foot injury. He came back briefly in the second, but then headed to the dressing room for good ?
Nylander with the overtime goal and 3 assists in last nights wild 9-8 win over the Bulldogs. Bibeau gave up 8 goals in 2 periods. Pretty clear he doesn't give a damn about tracking.
That puts Nylander 2nd in AHL scoring, 1 point behind the leader and he has 2 games in hand. 19 points in 14 games. That would put him on pace to score 100 if he plays a full season (which he won't because of the WJC).

Just ok.

I had written him off at the beginning of the season. The fact that the Leafs cut him as early as they did in training camp makes me think that they likely did too. But yeah, the way he's started at least gives me a slight glimmer of hope for him. I don't think that he'll ever be an impact player in the NHL in any way, but yeah I think you're right they need to at least see what he can do in the NHL sometime this season.

Not just the overall product, but the way/when they were scored. 3 of Nylander's 4 points came in the 5 goals to tie/win the game. They count just as much as points scored early in the game, but that Nylander led the charge with a goal and two primary assists is really nice to see.

I see Ryan Strome only has 2 assists in 4 games there after being sent down.

I think playing with Nylander has certainly helped him.

I can't see it happening, but man if they ever considered trading him I'd be all over that.

That's certainly a factor. For Panik too. Looking at Leivo's game-by-game stats, his points have been all over the place. For instance, 7 points in his first 8 games sounds pretty good, but 6 of them came in just 2 games. So he was shutout in 5 of 8. He'll probably need to show a bit more consistency in that regard.

Wow, that was looking like a pretty solid lead at 8-4. Nylander with a beauty finish to end the game.
