Game Review: Toronto Marlies 4 vs. WBS Penguins 2

Back in December, Toronto trailed 3-0 early in the third period against the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins before scoring three shorthanded goals to tie the game and win in a shootout.

While the Marlies were horribly outplayed in that game, this encounter was a whole different story.

Matt Murray, arguably the best goaltending prospect in the AHL right now, stole the show in the opening period. He had to be sharp 45 seconds in as Brendan Leipsic showcased his stickhandling and speed to create a chance cutting from right to left across the goal.

Toronto were guilty of a few giveaways, with David Kolomatis the first guilty party, but Antoine Bibeau came to his rescue with a smart save as WBS players swarmed the net.
