Toronto Marlies head into All-Star break with a shootout victory over Belleville

The Marlies head into the All-Star break with a 22-16-6 record, good for fourth place in the North Division — i.e. a playoff berth — with 32 games remaining in the 2018-19 regular season.

First Period

Unlike Friday evening, the Marlies took advantage of an early power play to take a 1-0 with just 101 seconds played — Jeremy Bracco’s nice finish came after even better work from Chris Mueller to create the opportunity.

Toronto then doubled their lead at the seven-minute mark on a set break-out play. Calle Rosen sent Dmytro Timashov away down the left, where the diminutive winger flashed a burst of speed to get by Cody Goloubef before teeing up Tom Sestito for a goal in his Marlies debut.
