cored seven goals in 60 games in a leadership role."Nick's played some good minutes for us," said Abbotsford head coach Troy Ward. "The things that we saw today are really a product of how he played in the ECHL. Here's a guy who was a go-to guy …holding the fort down a lot. (The Grizzlies) were really disappointed that they didn't have him in their first round when they got beat."Despite the offensive outburst, the six-foot-five defenceman — who had never previously scored twice in a game, dating back to his major junior career — has no illusions of what is required of him."I play a simple, shutdown role with Testy (J.P. Testwuide) as my D partner," said Tuzzolino. "Our job is to give time so (our offensive defencemen) can go out and do their jobs."Max Reinhart, playing his first AHL game, also scored twice for Abbotsford (42-26-8), with David Eddy also scoring the first goal of his professional career. Hugh Jessiman assisted on both of Reinhart's goals."My two wingers were making passes right on the tape, which in junior you don't always get," said Reinhart, who's junior team the Kootenay Ice were eliminated from the Western Hockey League playoffs."The guys are a lot stronger (than in junior) but having said that if you find open space, your teammates are going to find you."Leland Irving played well enough to win, stopping 18 shots in his first game since March 30. He missed five games while awaiting the birth of his daughter."A win elevates anybody's spirits," said Ward. "But at the end of the day what was most important is that he got 60-plus minutes and has a feel for the puck again. We'll look at the tape — there's some plays that he probably wants back."Abbotsford had already clinched the Western Conference's fourth spot and will play the Milwaukee Admirals in the first round of the Calder Cup playoffs. The Heat are on a seven-game winning streak and will need that momentum against a team that they have beat just once in four tries this season."We've had our struggles in Milwaukee this year," said Ward. "They've got really good stick skills. (But) it didn't matter to us as what team (we drew.) When we're playing our best hockey right now, you might as well play your best."Matt Frattin scored twice for the visiting Marlies (44-24-8). Philippe Dupuis and Carter Ashton also scored, while Nazem Kadri had two assists.Toronto finished second and will take on the Rochester Americans in the first round. The Marlies beat the Americans seven times in 10 games during the season.Rynnas made 21 saves in the loss.Abbotsford opened the scoring 9:37 into the first. Hugh Jessiman's shot from the top of the face-off circle was stopped by Rynnas but Reinhart was there to bury the rebound.Resident tough guy Pierre-Luc Letourneau-Leblond showed a balance of power and skill to set up the Heat's second goal. The seventh-year pro brushed off a Toronto defender and though his first centring pass was blocked, he corralled it and fed Eddy in front of the net with a perfect pass.Eddy, playing just his fourth AHL game, fired a wrist sh
