A disappointing 2017-18 campaign is long gone and the turning of the calendar to October brings a fresh crop of faces from top to bottom

The wait is finally over for the Orlando Solar Bears fans, who have been patiently awaiting the announcement of a new affiliation.

TORONTO, Ont. – Heading into game four of the North Division Final series, the Toronto Marlies were looking to do something they had done once previously, sweep a playoff series. Syracuse, meanwhile, was looking for something -- anything -- to get the momentum on their side.

TORONTO, Ont. – Momentum is a fickle thing in hockey. Momentum in the playoffs is an entirely different beast. Heading into game three Sunday evening, all the momentum was on Toronto's side

TORONTO, ON – The Marlies took game one of the North Division Finals 6-4 and are looking to win both at home. The Crunch are hungry to go home with an even record.

TORONTO, ON – Heading into the first game of the North Division Finals, the lead up to this series has been short for the Toronto Marlies, having completed their first round on Sunday with a win over the Utica Comets

TORONTO, ON – For the sixth time in seven seasons, the Toronto Marlies are heading to the second round of the playoffs. This is the seventh time they have made the second round in their history, and they won four of those series.

The Syracuse Crunch took a 2-0 series lead over the Rochester Americans last night in a high scoring affair at the Onondaga County War Memorial. Both teams struggled defensively or perhaps excelled offensively, but ultimately Syracuse would put themselves within one victory of advancing to the second round of the Calder Cup Playoffs.
