They both worked and the father admits himself he spent 20hr per week on hockey. Poor is living paycheck to paycheck, renting. Not living in an affluent area like Markham, spending half a work weeks worth of hours every week on hockey and Im sure they owned a house. They might not have been well off but poor they were not.
I'm the last one to support Matthews but I agree from that 5 or 6 second clip there's nothing to cringe at. Nothing awkward between any of those guys in the clip. I'm actually a little bit surprised to see Auston actually trying to pump up the dressing room there. Didn't think he even had that much in him.
Yes Paul worked as a team trainer but it was usually his 407 fee and a little more but then again not every year .. it was a way to move team sponsorship money to him
It depends on da year but lets say minor midget year with Flyers where he was not trainer of team .. this is likely correct figure .. but what he does not disclose is what team gave him to switch from Kings .. all GTHL teams get compensation back from OHL for right to draft players from their team .. because of supposed non profit rules teams must make their books so that there is no profit being made by da GTHL team however much of profit gets paid out in salary for doing org work like for instance booking ice for team or buying team jerseys .. so for a team books perspective it might show a Paul Marner cheque for ???? but what no one sees is cheque going other way for services rendered to org .. there was an investigation into this, including team gthl teams sell for millions (like JT), but it went nowhere .. and this is more than a Mitch thing fyi .. but kids/folks who have 1st round ohl potential all get recruited and every year there are many deals in place .. even occurs in ohl with white envelopes with cash given to kids .. all kids gets da weekly stipend but sometimes more cash shows up in da envelope my friend .. there are thousands of dirty little secrets out there in kids hockey
And Matthews always referring to how they ignore the outside noise is a direct shot at the fan base. This speaks to how a loyal but somewhat noisy fan base that bleeds blue and spends millions to support their team is not just unappreciated by some of the players but is their perceived enemy. The entitlement is astonishing but I think some of these guys are just selfish. It would surprise me if they took the C away from him. They should though.
In case we needed more evidence of how significantly behind his peers he is when it matters.
I could also get points if I passed to Mcdavid
Gotcha .. da world we live in hockey by definition is only for da rich .. i totally get it .. i was fortunate to be able to put 2 boys through da system .. go oilers go
And if was any good Mo would have points, but unfortunately he’s a bigger playoff flop than Vladdy.
There was a clip of Berube's, locker room speech, where he said something like, play for each other. I thought that may have been a shot at the fans.
If Marner sends some into fits for lack of preferred engagement, Barzal will make them miss Marner.
That’s taking it a bit too far. I think, actually I know for certain, he meant let’s play for each other, your brothers, families on the ice….make scarified for your line mates, take the hit….
No for Christ's sakes the Islanders wouldn't make that trade, are you serious?
At what point does the anger turn into apathy? When I heard the comments by Matthews and Nylander on locker clean out day, that's when it happened for me. I don't know either of them, so I want to be careful about judging them based off of what I see on TV, but I find both of them so unlikable, I don't care what happens to the Leafs if they continue to build around them.
