The Marlies are currently taking on the Hamilton Bulldogs, in a match-up that has more than bragging rights at stake. Toronto may currently lead the AHL North Division, but only two points separate them from their local rivals.

Marlies winger Tyler Biggs decided to give his team an early boost by getting stuck into Scott Zurevinski early in the first period. It’s pretty obvious to me who won, but I admit I’m pretty biased at times, so I’ll let you decide for yourself:

Mike Kostka sent the puck from center ice into the empty net as Bren Scrivens went to play the puck. Admirals won the game 1-0. Here’s what Marlies coach Dallas Eakins said after the game:

“I saw it and it’s a real interesting one for the referees. The puck comes out, the puck’s rimmed in, there’s a guy that’s offside by about eight to 10 feet, the puck hits the stanchion, but now he is onside and it goes in your net. It’s a fairly grey area. Once again, something that I’ve never seen. I’m sure the referees have never seen anything like that either.”

Who cares about the grey area. Shame on you Ben Scrivens!
