Im not saying marner is similar to gilmour or vice versa. Ive never thought that.
Just saying that the pic may be out of context. I recall one similar pic floating around HB that looked like marner was doing nothing in scrum, but in the full video it shows that he actually did do something.
I cant remember if this is the one or not.Cush posted the video, he started “tied up” but once the fight actually started he let go and went and whined to the ref.
It’s who he is, and it’s who he has always been. Just a full grown spoiled kid.
I agree.
But do we have the full video of what happened? Taking a still photo out of video can certainly change the context.
I seem to recall this when it occurred, the still looks bad, but the video isnt as bad cause I think he gets involved either earlier or later.
Or I could be wrong and thinking of something else.Who gives a rats ass? Marner is a wimp, Gilmour was not. Anyone who thinks otherwise is a flat out lunatic. They aren’t even close to being the same player.
As for Thrun exactly, if he clears waivers he’ll be a no cap hit RFA d man playing for the Marlies, this year is likely nothing more than seeing how he’ll do in their system before they decide if they’re even going to resign him.
I know almost nothing about Thrun, but considering we got him for a $1.3M cap dump attached to a player that brings almost nothing positive to the table, I can’t imagine Thrun is going to make any noticeable impact in the NHL. Hope I’m wrong.
I haven’t been paying much attention to the Leafs lately, are there really Karlsson rumors? Gross, avoid at all costs. Not what we need at all.
Like I’ve said a few times now. They’ve now got a guy who might have to clear waivers but who cares, if he doesn’t he’s no longer a $2K cap hit.
He’s 24, unless he’s something special or some other notable moves are made to clear space he’s not going to be a leaf.
Could be fighting Myers for a spot on the team or is he the next Benoit?
I won’t pretend to know. He’s got the size but he’s only 24, only has a max 60 game year, a total of 118 and no playoff experience, I can see him after Myers spot I guess?
I think I’d rather have the 24 year old playing than being the 7th guy though and I just don’t see him overcoming Benoit or OEL.
Like I said tho, who knows? Not me lol
I did like the Reaves signing but as the game went on, I see that he wasn’t what I thought the player he’d be/was.
Let’s see what Berube can do with Thrun who’s not small. That Leafs D are big men.Think he makes the team or do they risk sending him down? At his age I’d like seeing him get time on the marlies to see if he fits their structure with regular ice time. If he does resign the RFA, if not let him walk.
3rd man in? Look who was on the ice at the time. Kucherov, Point and Stamkos. So Mitch couldn’t handle those bruisers? He probably needed his Depends changed, with the thought of having to fight someone that was the same size as he was. I also remember this year, when Matthew Tkachuk was chasing him around, late in the game, slashing at him. He should have poll axed him across the ankles and that nonsense would have stopped immediately. He just didn’t have the stomach to do what needed to be done. Somewhere, I read that UG/AA mentioned that Marner was a lot like Gilmour in his prime. What a joke! There’s a reason that they called Gilmour “Killer”. That look of intensity and willingness to stick an opponent when necessary is part of what made Gilmour a bonafide star. Marner was never that and never will be that.
Flip Gilmour for Marner in that pic and I have a pretty good feeling Doug wouldn’t just be standing there lol
Because you like it when the Leafs lose.
In regards to the out of context photo, you’re right, Marner should have been the 3rd man in and taken a penalty. That’s what a really smart, all-time great player would have done. He’s such a moron.
Or better yet, he should have chased Point into the locker room and punched him while the medical staff was treating his injury after Rielly threw him into the boards. If he had done that, the Leafs would have at least 5 Cups in a row by now.
The Knights continued to do just fine without him, especially this past year.
I was so damn happy to see him leave London, was hoping the leafs would have grabbed Hanifin instead but Hunter was involved so I wasn’t shocked. I hoped he’d grow up but he didn’t. Still the same little weak assed guy that he was as a kid in junior.
Anyways, I’m done, I’m glad he’s no longer a leaf, I won’t miss him at all, be as good as I felt that he was no longer a Knight just amplified.
That’s a lot of personal attacks, seems like rage. It’s probably all your rage that’s blocking your ability to realize it.
I honestly believe that Roy and Maccelli, along with their Art Ross and Hart trophies, will win the Leafs the Cup. You convinced me.
All you do is cry about what you don’t like, you’re the baby, not me. I’m not upset at all, just making fun of how lame you are.
And yes, I’ll happily take a couple secondary guys over Marner, at least they play full games and do more than handle and pass the puck.
Go cheer on Vegas, you obviously like Marner more than the Leafs.

Wrong and raging about it. Go figure.Not raging at all.
Just calling you what you are.
If you honestly believe this team was fully leaning on a 4th overall pick who never once won a significant award your logic needs some work.
Argument, wrecked.
Oh yeah I’m sure he would have spoken openly about it on the media. Fuck you’re stupid. I said the dressing room specifically for a reason.
Have you ever even played the sport you dense fuck nut?
UG is here with his “Leafs are crashing” pouting again.
The guy is just a Canadian player fan and it’s pretty fucking obvious. Look at Clark and Gilmour on his pic. If Marner was on the team when those two were Mitch would have had his ass beat in the dressing room routinely playing like the whiny ass little pussy that he is.
I’m going to write about Treliving’s first year as GM, and how most of the moves were bad……Reaves was the worst.
To be fair he drafted Cowan and resigned Matthews that year, and even Nylander was resigned very early January 2024, and considering the fact he was tossed in at the last minute before July 1 (1 whole month) that’s not bad at all.
Brad Treliving did a wonderful job of getting rid of a mistake from 2 years ago. Moving Reaves and getting a prospect in return will start to change the culture in the Leafs dressing room. Marner and his mercenary behaviour was the first big step and now Reaves. Reaves had only 1 fight last year. His slow skating and propensity for taking dumb penalties finally signaled the end of his time in Toronto, and it gets another problem child out of the organization. Still there’s a few others that need to be dispatched and a proper first line winger coming in to help the Matthews line. For those who think the sky is falling, I disagree. Sure, one 100 point player off the roster, but significant cap relief can only help. There’s also the option to trade Anthony Stolarz for a great return. Stolarz had a career year and will be looking for a huge raise after this season. With Woll rounding into the number 1 goaltender, a good backup should suffice and allow the team the opportunity to either reacquire draft picks or a top 6 forward or a top 4 defender. The only question is, can Treliving make that deal without egg hitting him in the face. Should be an interesting season coming up.
Yup, and Reaves was a $200K cap hit on the Marlies and Thrun won’t be one at only $1 million. He’s a 24 year old RFA as well. He’s a simple choice for the leafs, if he doesn’t fit their style they don’t resign him, but he’s a 6’ 210lb D man, so I kind of like which way it’s leaning that he will ????
Can’t you guys just all stick to the latest blog?
I swear, compared to the Habs threads, you guys are all over the place!
I don’t know anything, I never will, I see my neurosurgeon again in 10 days and I’m just gonna tell him to cut the rest out ????
