Recap: Comets crash Marlies back to Earth with a 3-1 victory

The Marlies started this season with back-to-back victories against the Comets. They have since played each other another three times before Sunday, with the Marlies winning twice. On Sunday, the Comets and their goaltender Thatcher Demko turned the tables and shutdown the Marlies, ending their five game winning streak.

The Marlies continued to add new players on ATO contracts this week, the newest being Scott Pooley, a winger who didn’t end up in tonight’s game, and Jesper Lindgren who has been in the Leafs system for two seasons now.

Also dressed, though not playing for the night, was backup goalie Evan Buitenhuis who was signed to an ATO when Garret Sparks was called up to the Maple Leafs because of an injury to Frederik Andersen.
