Toronto Marlies lit up for seven in loss to Utica

Aside from the opening two minutes, this was not a competitive hockey game. The Comets dominated the Marlies and were able to take their foot off the gas with over a period left to play.

First Period

Toronto began brightly, striking a post through Egor Korshkov at 1:40 on the clock, but it only served as a wake-up call for the Comets, who feasted on a plethora of turnovers and missed assignments to build a 2-0 led with under eight minutes played.

Wacey Hamilton scored on a breakaway before Reid Boucher, left all alone between the hash-marks, had Woll fishing the puck out of his net for a second time inside four minutes.
