Toronto Marlies reached the conference finals after winning their third winner-takes-all game of the postseason. The team has relied on young players including Ben Danford, Easton Cowan, Jacob Quillan, Noah Chadwick, and Landon Sim. Despite often being outshot and spending time in their own end, they won key series moments, including a 4-0 home shutout loss in Game 3 against Cleveland with a 30-16 shot deficit. Cleveland outclassed Toronto over three games, yet Toronto responded by digging in. Artur Akhtyamov has taken over the net, playing 11 playoff games versus Dennis Hildeby’s three, while Hildeby’s AHL save percentage was .898 in the regular season.
