Gilman has been a busy man this summer, including building a roster for the Marlies and the Newfoundland Growlers, who will be the Toronto organization’s new ECHL affiliate from 2018-19 onwards.
Changes have not been limited to the players and staff, however, as Ricoh Coliseum is no more. As of July 11, Coca-Cola and Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment (MLSE) announced a partnership that includes renaming the Marlies arena to Coca-Cola Coliseum.
Signings
The benefit of reliable veterans on the Marlies roster was evident during the entirety of the championship campaign.
