The American Hockey League announced today that Toronto Marlies defenceman Joseph Duszak was named to the Second Team of the 2021-22 AHL All-Star Team.

Duszak, 24, has recorded 51 points (7 goals, 44 assists) in 60 games, setting career-highs in both categories. He currently leads all defencemen in assists (44) and points (51) in the Eastern Conference. Duszak registered a nine-game point streak (3-8-11), matching the longest point streak set by a Toronto defenceman. He has the second most assists (67) by a defenceman in Marlies franchise history.
