Part of that is the Growlers had a long road trip that their goalie coach didn't go on, so Peksa spent about 2 weeks with the Marlies not playing, just to have access to coaching
Yeah I thought I remember reading they didn't want to give him culture shock too or something

They played fine. People know comments involving them will generate strong reactions both positive & negative because of our fans and haters. Just ignore it, trolls love to argue and they don't have as much fun when their comments are greeted with silence.
I'm excited for our guys, they are playing the kinds of roles we're hoping they'll be able to play for us in a year or two, in high-level, high-stakes competition.
Team Canada has other guys to be Matthews, Marner, and Nylander. Cowan and Minten's jobs are to win puck battles, finish checks, and play responsible hockey, while chipping in offense when a chance is there.

When I watch Minten he seems to always make the right plays , he is always covering the dman when he pinches .
He is faster than I remember him in the preseason .
Cowen just love his game
He is always involved physically

TOPI his last 10 games is
4G 5A and +10

The points are great, the plus 10 is a real bonus since his defensive play must be better than we expected.
Marlies dominated last night. Cavallian is not good.
Bellows scored again. Interesting

How his defensive game for anyone that has seen? Plus minus doesn’t always tell the whole story. The way he is developing he could be an option next season for bottom pair right side.

Bellows is becoming more and more interesting.
Does Bellows look good or is he just putting up points?
His larger sample size in the NHL says that he is not a great NHL player, but he is still young enough to care about, so I'm just curious how he looks and less about the points.
Steeves has better numbers, Robertson does too, Holmberg is similar, Abruzzess is not far off, so just curious if it is his actual play that people are excited about, he is also older than every single one of those players.
Assuming draft pedigree plays into this as well.

I do not think Bellows is a ahead of the other players you listed but he is getting interesting. His issue always has been his skating.
All those players are kind of at the point where they get promoted or traded because there is not much more they can do in the ahl.
Abruzzese is a free agent this summer I believe because he needs to be on an nhl roster for 40 nhl games, which will not happen with the Leafs. I suspect he will be traded before year end.
Steeves is insurance dependent on what happens next year with the winger depth on the Leafs roster.
Holmberg has one more year to show he can do something but I suspect Minten is ahead of him so unless they deal Kampf, he will remain ahl fodder or have to get a chance elsewhere.
If some of these get moved, Bellows then becomes extra depth. Right now he is behind all those players.
The Marlies did not dominate, they lost 4-2, do you mean to say they GOT dominated?

I read it Marlies were dominated, but I could see it could be interpreted both ways.
