Marlies stage comeback, defeat Crunch 3-2 in overtime

The Marlies played a School Day Game on Wednesday morning. It’s one of those games played for attendance by the students at one of Toronto’s School Boards. This time it was the Toronto District School Board, and they brought over 7,000 screaming students who hoped to see an action-packed game.

The Marlies did not disappoint.

It was a bit too much for Brenden Miller. “It was definitely loud out there. At some points you maybe had to cover your ears.”

Unbeknownst to the kids in attendance, there was news breaking before the game even started: the Marlies fired long time staff member and Assistant Coach Gord Dineen.
