"I felt we were pretty flat from the start. [The loss] was more self-inflicted. They played a good game, but at this time of the year, it's more about what we bring to the table."
"If we're not ready to play, it doesn't matter who you play. You just can't allow a team to come out after you like that. I'm disappointed, they should be disappointed, and it's up to them at this point of the year."
The Toronto Marlies experienced a forgettable 6-3 loss against Utica, marked by a flat performance from the start. Despite outshooting the Comets, the Marlies struggled to create scoring opportunities. After a brief moment of competitiveness leading to a tying goal, they failed to maintain momentum. Utica regained control and capitalized on Toronto's mistakes, leading to their victory. The coaching staff is likely to disregard the game footage due to the team's lack of intensity and readiness.
