Toronto Marlies News Release


The North Division leading Toronto Marlies travel to North York to continue a series of community practices in an effort to connect with minor hockey teams throughout the GTA commencing at 6:30 p.m. on February 26 at Flemingdon Park Arena. A number of minor novice level players will watch Greg Gilbert put his charges through a legitimate pro hockey practice. With 15 minutes remaining in the session, these same players will take to the ice and join the entire Marlies team in interactive and challenging drills aimed at helping young players improve their skills.

The Marlies will leave the ice surface at 7:30 p.m., to participate in a team autograph signing session. This will be the fifth time the Marlies will hold their community practice this season.

The Marlies travel to Syracuse on Friday night to take on the Crunch - AHL affiliate of the Columbus Blue Jackets - with puck drop scheduled for 7:30 p.m. The Marlies return to Ricoh Coliseum for a pair of games next weekend. The Marlies host the Iowa Stars - AHL affiliate of the Dallas Stars - on Saturday, March 1 at 7:00 p.m. and the Hershey Bears - AHL affiliate of the Washington Capitals - on Sunday, March 2 at 4:00 p.m.
