Another blow to camp Marner.

Hopefully, they'll let Auston rest and heal. The last thing we want is Matthews aggravating some nagging injury from the start.

I don't care if he misses a month of October, he needs to be healthy come playoff times.

Preseason is a double-edged sword. You want your core players to get in game ready shape, yet you don't want to see your core injured due to hack players trying to make an impression.

It's a tough balancing act.

Players obviosuly don't go there hardest in pre-season but with the speed and random nature of hockey, you just never know when you might tweak something.

Hopefully this is just a short term one and he can get up to game speed asap.

I like how people are acting like Matthews is missing an arm after it was already reported to be minor. Like, I think we would all agree these meaningless games meant to get ready for the season do not matter and if he even is a little sore, he should rest and get ready for the season instead of pushing through it for no reason?

Instead some have a massive agenda and want to spin this into something it isn't like he is scared to play in Berube's system because he is asking him to work hard (like he scored 70 goals not trying or getting wacked/hit)

Matthews’ injuries are traditionally a tightly guarded state secret, and there’s logic to that. But they’re also annoying because you don’t know if they’re a) severe b) chronic or c) he’s just getting some down time after camp has been open for a week.

hack players don't take shots at stars anymore.

that's gone with the old days.

now hack players look up to the stars, follow them on social media, and hope to get a signed stick.

when everyone plays for Team Bettman, the idea of a hack player taking a shot at a star is long gone. You don't do that to fellow rich friends.

Captain succumbed to vigorous training camp led by gansta looking Lambert. Mitchie is the next one.

I said Auston injury is bad new for Mitch and you responding with fact about Leafs doing fine without Auston (most of the games are from JT prime years-tell noone) .

fact are indeed fact. great wisdom

You are still confusing Leafs with Mitchy .

Then why do the records differ so much when Marner isn't playing. Surely "PRIME JT" ( :biglaugh: ) who couldn't carry an empty plastic bag should be able to help the team win like he apparently does when Matthews is out. You can twist yourself in a pretzel to try and run from the truth, but the records are telling. Marner isn't as bad as you think he is and Matthews definitely isn't as good as you think he is.

Matthews being out is good news for him because it allows him to greater show his importance to the team. Not that it matters, they will re-sign and overpay him no matter what just like they did for the rest of the core.

He will miss the rest of the preseason, precautionary :sarcasm: Then all of a sudden he is "questionable" for game 1 of the regular season. You know how it goes sometimes. Let's just hope it is indeed nothing serious and not something that lingers.

If he plays poorly this year don’t sweat it, he is injured.

It can be annoying, but from the teams pov there's little to gain from being fully transparent. You don't want to advertise to the future opposition any physical vulnerability.
