"After consecutive defeats, the Toronto Marlies produced one of their best 60-minute performances this season to brush aside the Belleville Senators. While Jacob Quillan will rightly receive the headlines for his performance and production, this 6-1 victory was an excellent team effort. First Period From the outset, the Marlies drove the pace of the game, albeit without generating a whole lot of high-danger scoring chances throughout the opening frame. It took until the eight-minute mark for Toronto to really threaten offensively. The puck was worked back to Noah Chadwick atop the circles, where the rookie defenseman ripped a slapshot. The puck thudded off the underside of the crossbar and bounced straight out, with Hunter Shepard beaten."
""Good for [Quillan] to get rewarded. He continues to grow and get better as a player. He came back with some confidence, and it showed. All four lines were great, but it's a pretty special night for him to get four points." - John Gruden on Quillan"
The Toronto Marlies rebounded from consecutive losses with a dominant 6-1 win over the Belleville Senators, anchored by Jacob Quillan's multi-goal night. Quillan returned with confidence and finished with four points, while all four lines contributed effectively. Early chances included a Noah Chadwick slapshot that hit the crossbar and a Bo Groulx breakaway that nearly scored. Belleville’s netminder, Artur Akhtyamov, made several key saves including stops on Olle Lycksell and Arthur Kaliyev. The fourth line generated strong late-period momentum, and Michael Pezzetta ignited a rush down the right wing.
