Marlies Talk

Sorry to sound ignorant but I dont follow the marlies closely.  Who are Colbourne's linemates? And if Frattin and Kadri return to the marlies would they make up a line  Frattin-Colbourne-Kadri?  How would a power play unit with Gardiner-Blacker look?

I'd say that's exactly what the power play could look like when the Leafs get healthy and that's looking pretty good for the Marlies if you ask me. I don't mind the notion of playing the heck out of Gardiner and Blacker together in pretty much every situation.
 
Marlies move to 3-1 on the season with a 4-0 win over Lake Erie today. Rynnas in his first game gets the SO facing 21 shots.  Crabb 2 g,1 a, D'amigo with 1g, 2 a and Colborne with another assist to keep his point streak intact.

Is there a broadcast schedule for the marlies yet? The one on the site, as of 2 days ago was not updated.

The right-hand side of this schedule indicates if a game is being broadcasted:

http://www.marlies.ca/schedule/index.asp

Although I'm not sure if that's 100% correct, as that's considerably less games on TV than there was last year. Wasn't able to find anything else though. Although it doesn't look like CBC is showing any games this season.

There was an article on the AHL website a couple weeks ago indicating that a broadcast deal had been struck with Sportsnet. It did mention the Marlies-Bulldogs outdoor game and the All Star Game, but nothing on any regular season dates.

I seem to remember them picking up the playoffs too, although I could be wrong.
 
Picking up the playoffs would be a switch from Sportsnet. They've carried the All-Star Game for several years.

Here's the link, no mention of the playoffs.

Joe Colborne scored the OT winner and assited on 2 others today, bringing his total to 10 pts (4G, 6A) in 10 games.

10 points in 5 games, actually. Currently tied for the AHL scoring lead.

Henny was saying the other day that his game has changed for the better also. He is using his size to go aggressively to the front of the net and it's obviously paying off. He may end up being a pretty sure bet to be a call up soon enough, especially at the rate the injuries are going on the big club.

More good news, nice to hear.

Keith Aulie at the bottom of the team with no points -5?

Sent down AHL Blues?

I haven't seen a whole game. Just bits and pieces. Anyone with any insight?

All good news on the Colborne front, though, I think I'd prefer to see him stick with the Marlies and dominate the AHL for the entire season. While it's nice that he's using his size and strength to his advantage, the more he's at a level where he's clearly successful with it, the more it will begin to become instinctual, and that's what I'd really like to see from him.

I agree, I wasn't stating what I'd like to see, as I see it much like you do. I was only stating what I think would happen if the center ice men continue to go down to injury. I believe Burke see's it this way also, but they may end up having no choice, as he would clearly be the best center to bring up into the top 6, if there was another injury at center ice.
