It’ll be the last time the Marlies have to deal with the compact weekend schedule until March, a month that will once again see three consecutive three-in-three weekends.
The upcoming three game schedule begins and ends with a home and home series against Utica, starting off in New York.
Toronto vs. Utica — Friday Dec. 11, 7:00 pm EST in Utica & Sunday, Dec. 13 at 3:00 pm EST in Toronto
The two teams have met once this season in Utica, where the Marlies prevailed 5-4 in the shootout.
Both goaltenders in that game are currently plying their trade in the NHL.
