Michael Pezzetta on Winning the Calder Cup & Playing in Toronto

Fresh off winning the Calder Cup, Toronto Marlies forward Michael Pezzetta joins Nick Alberga & David Pagnotta to relive an unforgettable championship run. Pezzetta explains why every kid dreams of winning the Stanley Cup—and why capturing the Calder Cup is the next best thing in professional hockey. He reflects on celebrating with family and friends, reveals his championship meal (his mom's lasagna), and shares what it meant to win it all in Toronto.

He also discusses the incredible atmosphere at Coca-Cola Coliseum, why Leafs fans have embraced the Marlies, and why he believes the city will be "absolutely bananas" when the Maple Leafs finally win the Stanley Cup.

Plus, Pezzetta shares stories about John Gruden's leadership, Mark Giordano's influence, Artur Akhtyamov's calm playoff brilliance, Easton Cowan's development, Ben Danford's potential, and offers some advice to fellow Toronto native Darren Raddysh as he prepares to suit up for the Maple Leafs.
