Toronto Marlies GM Laurence Gilman: “My biggest task is not to screw it up. It is a well-run ship… This is very much like a National Hockey League team with the way that it is operated”

His full remarks below.

On transitioning into the GM role and what he’s learned about the organization so far

How nice is it to jump back into managing a hockey team after some time away?

Gilman: It’s incredibly satisfying to be back and involved with an American Hockey League team, and particularly satisfying to be involved with this one, which is run like a finely-tuned machine. To have the ability to come in to the Toronto Marlies after they won the Calder Cup is a tremendous thing for someone in my position.
