Toronto Marlies’ winning streak halted in Laval
Toronto Marlies vs. Laval RocketThe Toronto Marlies three-game winning streak came to a disappointing end on the road in Laval on Friday night.
The ice surface certainly wasn’t conducive to crisp, incisive passing as the game progressed, but the Marlies simply didn’t generate enough offensively to come out on the right side of what was a tightly-contested matchup.
First Period
There was no scoring in the first period and just 11 recorded shots, seven of which came off Marlie sticks.
The Marlies put themselves on the back foot early by taking a penalty inside the opening minute and needed Eamon McAdam to come up with a good stop on a breakaway opportunity for Laval.
