Roni Hirvonen registers an assist in return from injury, Toronto Marlies earn a point against league-leading Hershey

“It’s a good benchmark for us to see where we’re at and where we need to go.”

– John Gruden

On one hand, this was an excellent result for the Toronto Marlies. They took a point from the league’s best team this season and showed resiliency after trailing twice. The team would have snapped your hand off if you offered them three points against Lehigh and Hershey over the weekend.

On the flip side, the Marlies once more blew a hard-earned third-period lead, again showing an inability to clamp down and close out tight games.
