Ryan Tverberg and Dennis Hildeby did just that. - Author: Species - Tags: From The Branches, Toronto Marlies If you're going to snap a losing streak, you should do it with a bang, and that's what the Marlies did last night defeating the Senators 8-0 with Dennis Hildeby getting the shutout. Half of those eight goals are attributed to Ryan Tverberg, who scored the first three in a row on power plays. #1 > BERGER BLAST 🔥 [pic.twitter.com/1Qa3pYsM1X](https://t.co/1Qa3pYsM1X?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > > — Toronto Marlies (@TorontoMarlies) [January 13, 2024](https://twitter.com/TorontoMarlies/status/1745992081468784760?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) #2 > HARD WORK PAYS OFF 💪 [pic.twitter.com/Pwd6WIDgve](https://t.co/Pwd6WIDgve?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > > — Toronto Marlies (@TorontoMarlies) [January 13, 2024](https://twitter.com/TorontoMarlies/status/1745995717745754590?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) #3 > 1ST PRO HAT TRICK FOR RYAN TVERBERG 🔥 [pic.twitter.com/mE7plxVZmD](https://t.co/mE7plxVZmD?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > > — Toronto Marlies (@TorontoMarlies) [January 13, 2024](https://twitter.com/TorontoMarlies/status/1745999763672056092?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) That gets Tverberg up to 18 points in 17 games, he was out for injury for a time. To refresh your memory, you can read up on him here from our Top 25 Under 25 in the summer where we ranked him at #17, which was up five spots from the previous summer. [2023 T25U25: Ryan Tverberg is 17thRyan Tverberg has undergone a huge rise in status as a prospect since he was drafted, and his ranking history continues to reflect this improvement. As he enters his first full professional season, will that improvement be enough to make him a future contributor at the NHL level?![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/34/01/3401a938-f468-4c02-a227-9bc4cc09bad4/content/images/size/w256h256/format/png/2023/04/pension-plan-min.svg)PPP LeafsCatch-67![](https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1618044733300-9472054094ee?crop=entropy&cs=tinysrgb&fit=max&fm=jpg&ixid=M3wxMTc3M3wwfDF8c2VhcmNofDh8fHN0b2NrfGVufDB8fHx8MTY5MjAwOTk3Nnww&ixlib=rb-4.0.3&q=80&w=2000content/images/size/w1200)](https://www.pensionplanpuppets.com/2023-top-25-under-25-ryan-tverberg-is-17th/) You won't be surprised a game with this kind of a rout caused things got a little out of hand from the officials and at the end of the second period it blew up. > Senators Bokondji Imama taking a cheap shot at Hildeby after the end of the period starts a riot.

William Villeneuve said he is looking forward to it saying "Belleville is always a fun game and rivalry and we're going to go down there on Sunday and try to keep stacking those wins." And that's the final home game for the Marlies until February while the keys to the rink are turned over out the annual Toronto International Boat Show which starts next Friday. The Marlies won't go far to start, as noted the first game is a rematch over in Belleville, but once actually on the trip, they'll go all the way south to Carolina and then work their way north through six different teams in the US over the two weeks. The Leafs aren't going anywhere this weekend but will be playing back-to-back games here in Toronto with the Avalanche in town tonight and the Red Wings in town tomorrow. We'll have our preview of tonight's game out later this morning.
