did they say and it started with us? Because if they didn't I don't want to hear it. shut up.
honestly like i would want him to break down specifically what is better, and what we're missing if he believes that so much. I took a nap. i can be up all night Paul.
Cowan and just wait till they are UFA.
By then Knies will be a killer in the league.

You're probably a young kid who never saw pippen play. He was one of the best defensive players in the league. He beat you on both sides of the court. Mitch marner is no pippen.
Did he? I have to listen for context. Truthfully there were passengers tho, but you don’t say that to the media. Bobby McMann did f*** all this playoffs, had high hopes for him to at least contribute one goal

A lot of people look at game 6 to prove what the team could have been capable of and feel we simply laid an egg.
What I saw in game 6 was a florida team that didn't push 10% as hard as they could. We managed a couple goals against a conservative Florida team.
The moment this game started and florida wasn't just sitting back, I knew in my heart we'd lose unless we got fortunate and got a lead early on a bounce or whatever.
Sure, we laid an egg, but more than that, florida was just so much better of a team than we were. This game was always Florida's to win or lose.

First off all I’m not a Marner fan, I’m a Maple Leafs fan, go continue to be a crying puss somewhere else.

The problem with Maurice is he’s an asshole and can’t not be patronizing. So we don’t need his breakdown and we don’t need him to chime in. Begone with him!

unfortunately never once in 9 years has one of these guys ever taken responisbilty for their own play. tanev was our best player this series by far and hes the only one who took any personal responsibilty..and he shouldnt have. sad state of affairs.
"Go on to be an outstanding player elsewhere"
Are you drinking your own marner kool aid buddy? Have you been paying attention for past 9 years? You think a change of scenery is gonna teach him how to play this game at the highest level when the games are tight? He's not capable . If you were a leafs fan first and foremost - you wouldn't want someone like that back at a massive cap hit
It's crazy that he sucks so much and is the leading scorer for the team in the playoffs...
My guess is I think a lot of people in hockey think this market is overly critical of the organization.
But the truth is, it’s been since 67 since we’ve won anything. So ya we are going to be critical because why is it taking this long to build a winner?
secondary assists and powerplay touches that anyone can do. We've seen it all year

Get rid of every single non-accountable guy.
Just so we're clear - Marner and Matthews are top of that list.
Not on that list: Tavares, Knies.
Just listen to the interviews after tough losses, and you will have your answer.
If they say "we" and not "me / I" . . . then good bye.
Simple!

Who said I want him back? If anything I’ve been one of the only people from the beginning of the season who’s been consistent in saying there’s not a shot in hell he comes back. The relationship between the player and the franchise has been fractured for years. Anyone who thought there was going to be any amicable resigning here was probably delusional. I haven’t for a second thought or believed Marner would resign here. I’m surprised they didn’t trade him in 2023. I fully thought he was gone after that series.
And yes Marner’s a good player, he will find his footing with another team. Him and Matthews don’t work well together. But I think with another group, Marner can and probably will figure it out it.
2 more A2 than Nylander, and a few less EVP... but that is good, I am glad our PP will get worse, it was a strong point.
I think they wanted to - but Shanahan didn't agree with the move and canned Dubas for the thought.
He forced this core to run it back again and again
