Overview

• Toronto dressed mostly AHL players and camp invites, while Ottawa iced a near full NHL roster with Jake Sanderson sitting.
• Nick Robertson scored after a two-goal scrimmage the day prior, logged special-teams minutes, and continued his push for an NHL role.
• Calle Jarnkrok struck on the first shot and, with David Kampf, handled heavy minutes as the veterans guided a young group.
• First-rounders Easton Cowan and Danford were held off the scoresheet yet drew positive reviews, with reporting indicating Danford is likely to return to the OHL this season.
• Goalie Artur Akhtyamov turned in a strong 30-minute stint before Vyacheslav Peksa finished, and the chippy game featured Marshall Rifai’s fight after a hit on Ridly Greig.
