ParticipantAnd Nylander’s “stop bitching bro” the year prior.
Two years of this nonsense, that’s how long Bitch Marner was jerking everyone around.
Good riddance.
Plan the parade, 2026. Book it.

ParticipantI dont know who he meant with that. AM has to look in the Mirror as well, but its going to be interesting to see how this plays out.
i wouldnt say good riddance, more like it was time to try a different approach. in the NHL the playoffs are a very different game and you cant play soft dipsy doodling hockey like Mitch does. it works a bit but good teams squish you like bug in the important games

ParticipantNo, he clearly wasn’t as he had more career playoff points than everybody on the team, including Tavares who is 7 years older.

Must be why Marner was involved in winning 3 games against Florida. Funny because Kucherov, McDavid and Matthews each had 1 or less goal vs. Florida. But Marner’s the one who can’t play well in the playoffs though…

Marner also had 1 goal against Florida
Also 1 assist total games 4-7not that it matters since Mitch was not going to re-sign any way, but for 14 mil or whatever people think it would have taken, its not worth it.
For a PP guy, he went 29 playoff games in a row without scoring a PP goal.Bye Mitch

Also 1 assist total games 4-7More than Kucherov, same as Matthews and McDavid. In on 3 GWG goals vs. Florida though.

For a PP guy, he went 29 playoff games in a row without scoring a PP goal.He is worth every penny. He’s a PP playmaker. Not his fault Matthews can’t hit the side of a barn in the playoffs. Also not his fault that Matthews didn’t bench himself during the 4 Nations (or after) to heal for the playoffs. But it’s always easier to blame Mitch for the faults of others. It’s the retard Leafs fan way.
Bye Mitch
Bye Leafs chances at winning a Cup.

Participantman, there is some sour grape in here.
Mitch is a good player and did the same thing Sundin did when he left. -Did not allow the team to trade him for assets at the trade deadline.
Yeah, both players had NTC or NMC in their contracts but still they could of waived it.July 9, 2025 at 8:18 am #15688gravyface
ParticipantBitch Marner cancels his charity golf tournament for “uncertain summer plans”, but yet Hyman’s still running his with a broken wrist, even though he can’t play.
Fuck Marner. Good riddance.

No marner isnt the only one who cant play well in games 5 – 7, but we’re stuck with matthews and marner was an FA…and HE DIDNT WANT TO STAY.So he left.

ParticipantBye Mitch
Bye Leafs chances at winning a Cup.[/quote]
The leafs chances of winning a cup with marner were already low, so whats the difference.
In fact the past 9 years proved, the leafs COULDNT win a cup with how this team was made up.Its really simple

Not sure who he was referencing, but I hope it was about himself as well, matthews has been a disappointment in the playoffs as much as mitch

Yeah, for sure, but he was also hurt all of last year.
The Marner Saga is over thankfully, and we can move on.

What was Matthews reason the previous years?
Marner isnt solely responsible for the leafs failings, not at all. He simply had to go due to cap and that they have too many similarly soft players making over $10m
We already overpaid matthews (twice) and couldnt afford to overpay marner again.Marner will be missed in the reg season and games 1-4 in the playoffs for sure, specially once matthews goes down again for another injury.
But it was time for a change.
Hopefully the 2nd/3rd/4th liners we replaced him with, improve our depth and depth scoring. -
