Today the Toronto Marlies played a School Day Game, which started at 11:00AM, against the Syracuse Crunch. It started off normally, but those of us in the press box quickly noticed someone was missing from both the official score-sheets, and the player’s bench.
It was determined what happened not long after: the Maple Leafs organization had severed ties with Gord Dineen, previous head coach, and current, until today, assistant coach of the Toronto Marlies.
Maple Leafs Assistant General Manager Kyle Dubas was at the game and made himself available to media who attended the post-game press scrum to ask about tis development.
