<p>The spotlight was shining bright on Mitch Marner and the rest of the NHL All-Stars in Florida this past weekend, but the AHL also got their All-Star festivities underway with their skills competition on Sunday night.</p>
<p>The Marlies are well-represented at the AHL&#8217;s All-Star event, with netminder Joseph Woll, defenseman Noel Hoefenmayer, and captain Logan Shaw taking part. Hoefenmayer is having a fantastic season for the Marlies playing on an AHL contract, and he had a solid showing in the hardest shot event when he clocked in at 99.2 mph with his second attempt, but it was Joseph Woll who stole the show as he has so many times this season.</p>
<p>In his first appearance of the evening, Woll stopped eight of ten attempts in the rapid-fire event, tying Bruins prospect Brandon Bussi for the top score. He was just getting started, however, and didn&#8217;t allow a goal on three attempts in the Pass and Score Challenge before stopping four of five attempts in the breakaway relay.</p>

<p>Woll played a big part in the Eastern Conference coming away victorious on Sunday night and was named the event&#8217;s top goaltender for his efforts. It was a continuation of what has been a spectacular season for Woll thus far, coming off a 25-save performance in a 4-1 win over Laval on Friday that brought his record to 13-1-0 to go along with a 2.36 GAA and .930 SV%.</p>

<p>Matt Murray&#8217;s progress from an ankle injury that sidelined him just prior to the NHL All-Star break remains unclear, and if he is unable to play when the Leafs return to action against Columbus on Friday, Woll will be the one backing up Ilya Samsonov. The clubs will face off again on Saturday night, so if Murray is indeed unavailable, we could see Woll make his first NHL start since December of 2021.</p>
<p>Woll performed admirably in his first NHL stint, going 3-1-0 with a 2.76 GAA and .911 SV% in four appearances, and he has certainly proven worthy of another opportunity with his play in the AHL this season. Murray&#8217;s injury could end up being a blessing in disguise if it allows the Leafs to get another look at Woll against NHL competition before he loses his waiver-exempt status next season.</p>
<h1><strong>Ty Voit | W | Sarnia (OHL)</strong></h1>
<p>Voit came out of the gate incredibly hot, putting up video game numbers for Sarnia while leading the OHL scoring race throughout the entire first half of the season. Voit has since &#8220;slowed down&#8221; with <em>only</em><em> </em>11 points in his last ten games, and he has been overtaken in his chase for the league&#8217;s scoring title by Islanders prospect Matthew Maggio as well as Oilers prospect Matvei Petrov.</p>
<p>The Sting have relied on Voit to be their primary offensive driver for much of the last two seasons. Last year, he led the club in scoring with 26 goals and 54 assists, putting him 21 points clear of his team&#8217;s next highest-scoring player. This year, his 71 points currently have him ahead of Sarnia&#8217;s second-leading scorer by 19 points. The organization has made some significant additions to their roster over the last several weeks, however, with the additions of Ducks prospect Sasha Pastujov and Blue Jackets prospect Luca Del Bel Belluz helping to lighten some of the offensive load that Voit has been shouldering.</p>
<p>It would stand to reason that Voit would be even more productive with some added offensive firepower around him, but his rate of production has actually decreased following each of those additions. Voit recorded 32 points in 18 games (1.77 ppg) prior to Pastujov entering Sarnia&#8217;s lineup, 26 points in the next 17 games (1.53 ppg) before Del Bel Belluz was acquired, and after going pointless in Sunday&#8217;s loss to Ottawa, has 13 points in 11 games (1.18 ppg) since Del Bel Belluz joined the club.</p>
<p>Comparatively, Pastujov has put up 16 goals and 31 assists in just 25 games (1.88 ppg) with the Sting, while Del Bel Belluz has also outscored Voit with 14 points in the 11 games since he was acquired. It is worth noting that Voit has still been charged with driving his own line, playing on different units than Pastujov and Del Bel Belluz at even strength for the most part, but after being the Sting&#8217;s driving force for over a year, he has taken a bit of a backseat to the club&#8217;s recent additions.</p>
<p>Voit did have a big outing on Friday as the Sting destroyed the Soo Greyhounds by a score of 12-1. Voit and Del Bel Belluz actually had dueling three-goal, one-assist performances in the blowout win. Despite slowing down as the season has worn on, the Leafs&#8217; 2021 fifth-rounder has been a revelation, already with 71 points through just 46 games.</p>

<p>He will almost certainly be in contention for the OHL&#8217;s scoring title until the very end of the season, but the real challenge for Voit will come next year when his sublime offensive skills will be put to the test at the AHL level against bigger, stronger, smarter, and more skillful competition.</p>
<h1><strong>Brandon Lisowsky | W | Saskatoon (WHL)</strong></h1>
<p>Drafted by the Leafs in the seventh round of last summer&#8217;s draft, Lisowsky is putting together an impressive season for the Saskatoon Blades in the WHL. He has been particularly hot as of late, scoring five goals while going without a point just once in his last eight games, and now has 26 goals to go along with 23 assists in 45 games.</p>
<p>Lauded for his shot and pure goalscoring upside in his draft year, Lisowsky has kept up and even improved his impressive goal production this year while also becoming a more efficient playmaker. Make no mistake; he is still very much a shoot-first player, but he has looked to distribute to teammates rather than settling for low-percentage shots more often this season, and it has helped to make him into a more dynamic threat with the puck on his stick.</p>

<p>Lisowksy doesn&#8217;t just dish the puck off and let his linemates do the rest. He moves around the offensive zone with purpose, hunting space off of passes, either to draw defenders and open up space for his teammates or to get himself into a prime shooting area. His shot is already NHL quality, so an improved ability to get into positions to utilize it has been an encouraging development.</p>

<li>Fraser Minten has hit a bit of a cold patch, being held off the scoresheet in each of Kamloops&#8217; last four games.

<li>Roni Hirvonen continued his strong second half with a two-goal performance in a 4-1 win over Tappara on Saturday, bringing him to 13 goals and 11 assists in 46 games.
