"After the Monsters jumped out to a 2-0 lead at 7:56 of the second period, the Marlies scored five unanswered goals to silence the Monsters' home crowd. Nine different Marlies skaters picked up a point in the win, with forward Bo Groulx leading the way with one goal and two assists."
"Once again, Marlies goaltender Artur Akhtyamov impressed, stopping 32 of 34 shots to improve his postseason record to 5-2-0. The 24-year-old has run with the Marlies' starter role since Game 2 of the North Division semifinals, allowing more than two goals only once in his five starts since Marlies head coach returned the Akhtyamov."
"Easton Cowan put the Marlies on the board with 3:08 to play in the second period, beating Monsters' goaltender Zach Sawchenko five-hole on the power play for his third goal of the playoffs. Speaking this week to TSN's Mark Masters, the 20-year-old said he is trying to use this playoff run to impress whoever is named the next head coach of the Maple Leafs."
"After American Hockey League veterans Marshall Rifai and Alex Nylander both scored to put the Marlies up 3-2, Maple Leafs' 2020 seventh-round draft pick, Ryan Tverberg, gave the Marlies some much-needed insurance. Tverberg finished off a backdoor, no-look pass from captain Logan Shaw to put the Marlies up by two goals with 7:28 to play and record his third goal of the playoffs."
