Yes, the Marlies started the final series for the Calder Cup last night, but unfortunately lost 3-1\. [Ben Scrivens](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/111745/ben-scrivens?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) stopped 39 of 41 shots, and, by most accounts, was Toronto's best player.

Over at the Leafs Nation, [Andrey Osadchenko has a preview](http://theleafsnation.com/2012/6/1/calder-cup-finals-toronto-marlies-norfolk-admirals-series-preview?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) of the series, just in case you're not sure what to expect from the Norfolk Admirals. They're a very, very good team.

Jeffler [has a recap of the game at Marlies HQ](http://marlieshq.com/2012/06/01/marlies-lose-game-1-of-calder-cup-finals/?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), as well as a few notes. Also, here's the [post-game reaction from Dallas Eakins](http://video.mapleleafs.nhl.com/videocenter/console?catid=446&id=180232&lang=en&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) via the Marlies website.
