The Toronto Maple Leafs AHL farm team, the Toronto Marlies, are off to a great start to their season. This is a group that has the chance to do something special and should capture the Calder Cup, the trophy awarded to the American Hockey League (AHL) playoff champions.
The Toronto Marlies are fighting to maintain their position near or at the top of the North Division in the AHL. While the season is still young, the group has set the tone for how the season should unfold. A great deal of the credit needs to go to management.
