ParticipantFor 9 years marner couldnt get it done in Toronto, couldnt handle the pressure. Had plenty of opportunity to step up when Matthews was injured in the playoffs, but he never did. Also having him getting paid $14m on the leafs wouldnt have gotten the leafs in the playoffs this this year anyway.
Old news.
The female hating pedo that loves to stroke it to marner in here really needs to get a life or go cheer for him in the vegas thread.As usual, wrong. Marner did his job in Toronto better than Matthews, Nylander and Tavares. He handled the pressure until they forced him to leave.
Again, you’re retarded. If Marner was on the Leafs, they 1000% make the playoffs. You’re a complete retard to believe otherwise. They went from 1st in the division to last. The only major difference? No Marner. Accept reality.
The libtard needs to get a clue and pull his head out of the anus of the CBC.

ParticipantMarner is an incredible player. Generational actually. He was, however, not built for the hometown Toronto glare, media attention, and scrutiny. There is nothing wrong with that. It does not change the fact that he is an amazing player. The change in location was necessary for him to reach the level he is at now.
Absolutely incorrect. Marner is a great player but he’s not a generational talent. That’s McDavid. He did better than anybody else in Toronto, more career playoff points than Matthews, Nylander and Tavares. The media and the franchise ran him out of town but the team failed on the ice because it was constructed poorly. He did not have to leave to have this success. The team and the market simply needed to be constructed properly.

ParticipantMitch Marner leads the NHL in playoff scoring and played amazing in two different Game 6s to help eliminate two teams and is now in the Conference Finals?! Unpossible!
I guess it all doesn’t count because his hair wasn’t wet enough or some other retarded excuse.

ParticipantAnaheim is the #1 comeback team in the NHL. Coach Q won’t let these guys quit. Hart has to keep his usual shitty goal against out of the net this game.

ParticipantMitch Marner most definitely did not screen the goalie perfectly for a PP goal. Won’t get a point but that’s normal because it’s Game 6 and it’s unpossible for Marner to play well in a Game 6.

ParticipantMitch Marner definitely did not perfectly set-up Howden for a shorthanded goal because it’s Game 6 and it’s unpossible for Marner to score points in a Game 6.
Brett Howden, who had 9 career playoff goals prior to this year, now has 8 playoff goals since playing with Marner. Funny how that works.

ParticipantMitch Marner definitely did not score a between the legs beauty because it’s Game 6 and it’s unpossible for Marner to score a goal in Game 6.

ParticipantSedins are co-Presidents of the Canucks now with zero experience.
The Vancouver Canucks always want to be like the Leafs. It’s probably why they always lose.

ParticipantI saw a trade proposal. Chi offers #4 pick for Knies
yes or no?Is everybody else getting traded too? If you trade Knies for a player that won’t make an impact for another 2 or 3 years (best case scenario), Matthews and Nylander probably say fuck this team 2 seconds after they find out about the trade.
As I’ve said before, 1st overall doesn’t make this team a Cup winner overnight. Neither does 4th overall. So it’s full rebuild if any good player is traded.
But if Matthews is going for 2nd overall + Misa + an unprotected 2027 1st and Nylander is going for 3rd overall and a 2027 unprotected 1st, yes sure, blow it up, trade Knies and go for it.

ParticipantI just mean for the perception the players have, like AM will see it as making changes to “improve”
whether they do or not on the ice, isnt the point.They fired the coach without asking the players. What kind of perception does that have? They let his best buddy and best playmaker go to Vegas and he leads the playoffs in scoring. How’s that perception look?
Again, the perception still sucks from multiple angles. Chayka has zero success in the NHL and Sundin has zero experience. Shane Doan is gone. Since day one, this franchise has wiped Matthews’ ass in every direction. It’s been good enough to keep him signed but not a winning formula either.
The 1st overall pick is not McDavid. He’s not MacKinnon. He’s not Crosby. Or Ovechkin. The new coach is expected to turn chicken shit into chicken salad? The coaching candidates are either hard asses or rookies. The Leafs have hired both types. Neither worked before and the roster is worse than ever.
Don’t think anything they have done will change the reality and what happens on the ice is what matters. This will still be a lottery team at worst and a 9th placed team at best. The UFA market won’t change this team, the 1st overall pick won’t change this team and the Leafs simply do not have the assets to trade themselves into a better position either.
This pile of shit is what it is and Matthews, if he’s smart, will see the writing on the wall and get the hell out of town. Luckily, it’s also what is best for the franchise so both parties win.
Play out next year. Score 40-50. Miss the playoffs. Trade him with 50% retained at the draft.
