Marlies 3 vs. Bulldogs 1: Game In Tweets

Marlies 3 vs. Bulldogs 1: Game In Tweets

Tonight in Cobourg, the Marlies defeated the Hamilton Bulldogs 3-1 in the first of two preseason games against their divisional rival. The Marlies battled back after falling behind in the first period; Brad Ross (who also scored in each of the intrasquad scrimmages) tipped home a Jake Gardiner point shot in the second before Greg Scott won the game late in the third with a powerplay goal set up by Nazem Kadri. Greg McKegg sealed the deal with an empty netter.

As for the remark in the pre-game ceremony from the mayor of Cobourg Gill Brocanier, it sounds like his fat joke about Nazem Kadri was more of a shot at the Toronto media than Kadri himself. Speaking on the size of the locker rooms in his city’s new arena, the mayor said something along the lines of “they’re big enough to fit fat beer league players but, according to the Toronto papers, not Nazem Kadri.” In any event, Jonas Siegel’s tweet described the joke as tasteless and the word is that members of Leafs brass in attendance weren’t pleased.

I give this persisting non-story a big “who cares?”

OK, think I've got it. I've ranked about 350 players and excluded a bunch. Is that all I need to do? Sorry, but I am really new at this!

@ingy56 I love it, Rogers TV carries OHL games, so every season I end up seeing every Leafs OHL prospect at least once, and they carry a lot of Marlies games as well.

One good thing with Rogers I guess, I'm on satellite so I have to rely on Sportsnet. They do carry Petes games on Cogeco in town.

No, but almost every day of the weekend, Rogers TV has an OHL game on, so I catch a lot of OHL games that way. Usually different teams. 

@Dangle_My_Berries I sure hope so.

i imagine the internal unrest and disfunction has been weeded out by now. Burke most likely had a meeting with his staff to get everyone on the same page and focused going forward.

Should be interesting to see how all the goaltenders respond to St. Croix (and Gordon and Cronin LOL) 

@Zombie27 I say a tweet a day or so ago from Micheal Grange who has a pretty good handle on all the CBA stuff. He said when things go quiet on both sides that’s a good indicator they are making some progress. No talks have been scheduled yet but maybe one side or the other have indicated they intend to put another offer on the table. I expect we will hear later today or tomorrow that negotiations have resumed .

Hopefully it means they've been told to keep quiet on something meaningful that is brewing...one can only hope...

i want to see Owuya do his thing, i haven't had much of an opportunity to see him play.

Wow, is Paul Ranger ever a well spoken guy. I’m pulling for this player but even if he never makes the big team, he sounds like he’d be a fantastic mentor for all the young Marlies. Here he is after yesterday’s game. http://video.mapleleafs.nhl.com/videocenter/console?catid=446&id=187670&lang=en

@TheCanucksnaphook I remember watching a story on Owuya and how he comes from humble beginnings. Hope the kid turns into something special….didnt take him any time to get adjusted to the north american game, from the moment he arrived he put up sick numbers in the ECHL and shorts stints in the AHL. Also interested to see what Rynnas does this year.

I think he is a big athletic kid.  He is going to push Scrivens for the top spot (which Scrivy will get based on last season)

I think he may carry a fairly big roster for the first part of the season, at least until this NHL mess gets sorted out one way or another.

Is it just me or does it seems like all the players have suddenly gone quiet on twitter? Have not seen a peep in last 48 hrs . I may have missed something but it seems very quiet to me.

I would think they will have to wait and see if the various ECHL teams have room for players too. Unless they sign an exclusive agreement or have one in place that no one knows about.

From the sounds of what he was saying earlier this week he will carry 3 extra forwards, 2 d-men and an extra goalie.

@Burtonboy maybe Fehr has put a muzzle on the PA. Hopefully this means they are working on something concrete…its a stretch…

Nothing about the strike per say or Bettman was there ? I follow a lot of others ,not only the Leafs and a lot were pretty vocal about Bettman. Seems to have gone very quirt on that front . 

Subbury vs Ottawa good game right, catching Leivo, he destroyed some one hard against the boards on the PK

Pure beat down.  The guy looked small and willing but was just overpowered.

the fruits of Burke's drafting are soon to pay off. The kids he has in the system all seem like quality individuals, happy to see them having early success in the season. Can't wait till Rielly, Biggs, Percy and the rest turn pro. Gonna be interesting to see who Eakins decides to keep with the Marlies and who goes to the ECHL.
