Now That's A Heated Rivalry
Well folks, there is no mistaking the fact that the Marlies and Abbotsford Heat are in the same division, and will be battling for important points all year. The series started off in a big way with six more meetings still to come. Over 240 penalty minutes, 20 fighting majors and four ejections were handed out in the first two games between the squads this week. Hard to believe from a Flames affiliate that has spent the last few years in the West Division in either Quad City or Omaha, and having Toronto only see them twice a year.
You had to know things were going to get a little rougher in the second game with a few line-up changes on the Heat end of things. This is going to be one heck of a season series between the two teams, and I'd be ordering my tickets right now for the four games that Abbotsford will play in Toronto at Ricoh Coliseum. These two games were as physical as you'll see in the regular season. The first game featured a highlight reel of crunching body checks that would make Grapes himself proud. Then, an old fashioned line brawl in the second game, just for good measure. Don't be fooled, the hockey was pretty good too. That's the kind of intensity you love to see in a regular season game though, as it makes you crave a playoff spot even more.
Marlies out-muscle Heat
"They came out hitting, and we didn't answer them," Heat winger David Van der Gulik said afterward. "We played like boys tonight, and they were a team of men."
In the third period, Marlies defenceman Andy Rogers earned a one-way ticket to the showers after crushing Heat centre Jason Jaffray into the side boards long after the puck had left the vicinity. Rogers was assessed a major penalty for interference and a game misconduct.
In the melee immediately after the hit, Van der Gulik – all five-foot-11, 185 pounds of him – launched himself into the six-foot-five, 225-pound Rogers.
"It was a dirty hit," Van der Gulik explained. "I'm not much, but I tried to knock him over and show him that if you do that, you have to answer to someone."
Abbotsford ices physical lineup, gets revenge with win over Marlies
A Night After Being Outmuscled The Toronto Marlies At Home, The Abbotsford Heat Turned The Tables On Their Guests.
Recent Call-Up J.D. Watt Followed A Fight With His First American Hockey League Goal As The Heat Downed The Marlies 5-3 On Wednesday.
Watt Was A Presence Both Physically And Offensively As The Heat Dressed A More Physical Line-Up To Matching The Marlies' Intensity From Tuesday's Game, Won Toronto 3-1.
Watt, Who Was Called Up Overnight, Dropped The Gloves With Richard Greenop In The First Period Before Scoring To Give The Heat A 2-1 Lead After 20 Minutes.
"I Found Out At 12:30 Last Night," Said Watt Of The Call-Up. "So It Was A Quick Turn-Around. (Heat Coach Jim Playfair) Just Told Me That I Had To Be A Big Part In Tonight's Game And Help These Guys Out.
Watt a bright light for Heat
When J.D. Watt was inserted into the Abbotsford Heat lineup on Wednesday night, he was expected to boost his team's toughness quotient against a pugnacious Toronto Marlies squad.
He did that, and much more.
"It was nice to get the goal, but even better to get the assist and the fight," he said with a grin afterward. "I'm not going to be a goal-scorer in this league, so I've got to stick to my game, and part of that's fighting."
