- Toronto Marlies forward Bobby McMann is the prospect of the week. He has 21 goals in 29 games and 18 in his past 17 games. Can you really be more red-hot than Bobby McMann is? The 26-year-old is yet another testament to the amount of depth Toronto has assembled via the NCAA undrafted free-agent market.
