Colin Greening of the Marlies battles Albany defenceman Vojtech Mozik for position in front of the Devils net in Game 3. He failed to make the rookie-loaded Maple Leafs out of training camp, but kept his head up and reported dutifully to the AHL’s Toronto Marlies. “I’m a professional hockey player,” said Greening. The 31-year-old Greening didn’t sulk when sent to the minors, instead quickly embedding himself as a leader with the Marlies. Greening saw first-hand what the Marlies had to offer the Leafs when he finished the season in Toronto last year, and he’s seeing it again this year.
