Joseph Woll Is Progressing on the Road to Recovery<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n1st Period<\/h3>\n\n\n\n This game started the same way that most of the games have started on this losing streak, with the Marlies carrying the play and getting the bulk of the scoring chances but not being able to capitalize on their chances. By my calculations the good scoring chances were 8-4 for Toronto but neither Hildeby nor Kevin Mandolese let one get by them. The shots in the period were 13-9 Toronto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The game was also relatively clean to that point with no indication of what was to follow. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
2nd Period<\/h3>\n\n\n\n The Marlies got on the board at 2:49 of the second when a \u201cseeing eye\u201d shot from the point by Marshall Rfai found its way past about six bodies in front of Mandolese into the net. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dylan Gambrell would make it 2-0 Marlies at the 11-minute mark on the power play. Keiffer Bellows\u2019 shot from the half-boards to the left of Mandolese was deflected by Kyle Clifford. Mandolese managed to stop it but the deflection prevented him from controlling the rebound. The puck dropped into the crease to Mandolese\u2019s right and Gambrell tapped it in the open net. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Josiah Slavin would make it three-zip Toronto at 17:41 when he tipped a William Villeneuve shot past Mandolese with Zach Solow creating havoc, and a screen, in front of the Belleville goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As the score grew for Toronto the game began getting rougher. There were five roughing penalties called in the period and fighting majors between Max Lajoie and Brennan Saulnier with 11 seconds left in the period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then, as the teams were skating off to end the second all hell broke loose as Bokondji Imama gave Hildeby a poke with the blade of his stick as they were passing each other. Clifford immediately jumped Imama and they both dropped their gloves. When the dust had cleared both Imama and Clifford were ejected from the game and nine penalties were called including three majors and four misconducts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
3rd Period<\/h3>\n\n\n\n The 3rd period started with the Marlies on a five-minute power play as a result of Imama getting called for spearing Hildeby.\u00a0All of the other calls at the end of the second balanced out.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
