2006 first round pick, Jiri Tlusty made his Marlies debut last night, scoring won goal in a 6-5 victory. If he stays with the Marlies or is sent to the OHL Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds, remains to be seen. The Greyhounds would love to have him, but I'm pretty sure Tlusty would rather stay with Marlies. $60 a week to play in the 'O' or a $62,500 yearly salary with the Marlies. It is a rare occurrence to see an 18 year old in the AHL. An argument to having his stay in the AHL, is that Tlusty played in the Elite League in Europe against men, so he's use to playing against larger, strong men.
