Alex Steeves scores twice, Artur Akhtyamov stops 31 of 33 as Toronto Marlies beat Belleville in OT

“We weren’t very good for the first 20 minutes. They beat us to all the loose pucks and won the pucks. But I really did like our intensity after that. We made a few mistakes, but I loved how we responded to them. We got some huge momentum swings from our goaltender with some really big saves.”

Artur Akhtyamov received a raucous reception when he entered the Toronto Marlies‘ locker room after this 3-2 overtime win over Belleville. The rookie netminder made several tremendous saves to steal the team a much-needed victory.
