Anyone still crying, bitching, and moaning about a guy who hasn’t worn a leafs jersey for over a year is nothing more than a whiny little bitch.
You’re literally the reason leafs nation looks bad.
Cheers.
Anyone still have severe Marner Derangement Syndrome? Anyone still retardedly blaming Marner for the failures of the Leafs while he leads the playoffs in scoring, entering the Stanley Cup Final while the Leafs were a lottery team without him?
No retard. The reason Leafs Nation looks bad is because of dumbass retards like you of which there are far too many. Complete dumb shit retards who ran Marner out of town only to have him prove you all wrong. That’s what makes Leafs Nation look retarded and bad. Took a kid who wanted so badly to play for the Leafs, to win with the Leafs and used him as a scapegoat only to fall flat on your face as soon as he left to succeed somewhere else.
No different than Larry Murphy, Nazem Kadri, Alex Steen, Phil Kessel and a long, long list of other players thrown to the curb by Leafs Nation (and management) only to watch them win a Cup somewhere else while Leafs fans bury their dumbass heads in the sand trying to create another excuse why it’s not the Leafs fault for their own fuck ups.
Another bunch of turkeys voting for Thanksgiving.
1 even strength point in 4 games against Colorado (a real team) missing the best D in the world for 2 games. Carter Hart was MVP of that series and stole the first 2 games even though some knob gobbler said Hart would be the reason Vegas does not win the cup. Carry on.
Your dumbass was wrong. Again. It took you a lot of terrible sentences but in the end that’s what your garbage post amounts to; you were wrong again.
Marner leads the playoffs in scoring. He scores at 5v5, he scores on the PP and he scores shorthanded. Speaking of shorthanded (like your IQ), pretty sure Colorado had 0 PP goals vs Vegas. Makar did play in 2 games and Marner helped shut down that PP. Of course, your retarded ass won’t give him credit for it because you’re still coping with the fact that the Leafs absolutely fucked up again and are now one of the worst teams in the NHL without Marner.
Hart has played better than he has all year. Good for him. But Colorado could barely generate shots making his life a lot easier. Blackwood stood on his head and Vegas would have blown them out had he not made some amazing saves. Colorado had 21 shots in an elimination game. Vegas’ defense, which Marner is a key part of, sometimes leading the entire team in ice time (yes, even more than the D), just strangled them into being able to generate nothing.
Colorado looked like the Leafs and Vegas looked like Boston and Marner proved to your dumbass, again, that he wasn’t the problem.
Don’t know if they can beat Carolina because they’re a very strong team, playing a very tough style but if Marner can lead the playoffs in scoring into the Cup Final, it’s proven more than enough that the Leafs were the problem, not him.
Cope harder dumbass bitch.

I think the vast majority of Leaf fans want to move on and would like nothing better than to not talk about Marner actually.
Most of what you are classifying as whining, bitching and moaning is them responding to the constant media talking about Toronto and Marner. Should they just not reply – sure but I assume it’s hard to read and hear it non-stop and not respond.
It’s the media and here specifically the one unhinged retard who is convinced everything and everyone else was the problem in Toronto for 9 years and Marner was never even 1% of the playoff failures.
Vegas may very well win the cup and Marner very well may win the Conn Smythe but neither of those things will erase the 9 years of Marner in Toronto nor the way he left Toronto.
Still to play a real team this year.
Swept the best team in the NHL.
Mitch Marner is the leading scorer in the playoffs and is in the Stanley Cup Final.

Marner played in Toronto for 10 years. The team never advanced past the second round. He disappeared in big games, or elimination games. Is it all his fault? No, there’s lots of blame to go around. Toronto is a real inhospitable place to play, if you’re not successful. Marner often played scared. Not just from the opposition, but the press core. It was time for the Leafs to move on from him. It should have happened the year they could still trade him, before his no movement clause kicked in. It’s obvious that he had resentment for the press and many in the fanbase. It was a no win situation for him, with all of the pressure of the massive fanbase and accompanying media. Toronto isn’t a place to play for the faint of heart. You can be lionized as a conquering hero when you’re winning. If you aren’t able to win because of a mental block, see Larry Murphy, etc, you can fall from grace quickly. Marner gave the impression that he couldn’t take the pressure. In Vegas, he can walk down the street and no one would recognize him. In Toronto, they hijack your car. It’s part of the curse, to play in Toronto. Some players thrived in that environment. Marner could not, long term. He had to go, and thanks to his previous contract wrangling the fans never forgave him. Good luck to him in Vegas.
Wrong.
Marner was always the #1 point producer in the playoffs in Toronto. More than Matthews. More than Nylander. More than Tavares. He scored big goals and big assists in high pressure elimination games for the London Knights, for Team Canada and now for Vegas. The outlier, the disaster of a franchise is Toronto, not Marner.
When Tavares was signed, retard fans debated how many Cups he would win by time his contract expired. Reality is, he showed up and ruined the team with his insane contract and defensive ineptitude. Marner, year one away from the Leafs, already has taken his team to the Cup Final and leads the playoffs in scoring. The Leafs had 3 offensive core players and instead of adding that money to the defense, they thought they could win every playoff game 5-4. They were wrong. But when they were wrong, they blamed Marner despite being the only reason Tavares and Matthews scored 40-50-60 goals. When he’s not playing with them, those guys drop off offensively, Matthews having one of his worst years ever as soon as Marner wasn’t there feeding him.
The “pressure” in Toronto exists because the market always needs a scapegoat. Heaven forbid they should blame the people actually responsible; management. They blamed Marner through the media (that owns the team) and the retard fans bought that narrative hook, line and sinker. They beLeafed it. They cheered it. And now, to this day, they won’t believe their lying eyes, creating every excuse in the book why it’s still Marner’s fault or why he’s getting lucky somewhere else.
The problem was never Marner. The problem was always a weak ass team built around him. In Vegas, he has a defense that can defend. Depth players that hit and defend. Core players that play two-way hockey, even when they aren’t scoring goals. Eichel and Hertl had 1 goal between them for most of the playoffs. But unlike guys like Nylander and Tavares, they played defense. They kept the games within reach. Vegas didn’t even have goaltending most of the season despite allowing very few shots. Carter Hart has been making the saves he needs to make but the team is holding a team like Colorado to 21 shots in an elimination game.
So many idiots, a lot of them on here, thought Torts was going to destroy Marner. Hiring Torts was the best thing Vegas could have ever done. The Leafs had half a dozen chances to hire Torts and always refused. Torts’ players love him. They run through walls for him. The Leafs hired coaches that did the opposite. Coaches that had the wrong game plan and the wrong motivational tactics.
Line by line, point by point, the reason why the Leafs did not succeed with Marner is because they refused to acknowledge what the real problems with the team were and it wasn’t Marner.

Please let this be the end of the ridiculous Habs luck. They had no business beating Tampa in game 7 when Tampa’s best player was a no-show and their best Dman was injured. A quick whistle ended Buffalo’s season in game 7, now they are being outplayed up and down the ice and somehow are dragging Carolina into overtime games.
The truth is, the east is not what it was, even 3 or 4 years ago. The Habs have managed to fluke their way past mediocre competition.
