Coming off of a poor defensive performance during Friday’s win in Belleville, Toronto shored things up at the backend; while it came at the expense of creating a whole lot offensively, the Marlies found another way to win against a rested Binghamton team and extended their points streak to 15 games in the process.
First Period
The majority of the Marlies scoring chances arrived in the opening six minutes of the game: Trevor Moore struck the post following a turnover, Kerby Rychel tipped a shot just wide from the point, Miro Aaltonen looked destined to score in tight but was clearly slashed (no call), Chris Mueller was denied by an excellent shot block, and luckless Calle Rosen struck the iron for the umpteenth time this season.
