Player Discussion Marner talk - daily repetition version.

[Arzak]

Marner is a smart guy and knows his time in Toronto is coming to an end. He can tough it out and not agree to a trade but who in their right mind would want to stay in a city where he's not wanted?

I hope he isn't listening to his stubborn father again. I'm sure even he sees the writing on the wall.

Smart guy would read a room. That last "gods remark" convinced me it's HOCKEY IQ they praise.

 

[Arzak]

Selke level, no less!

Did anyone mention he can score on PK ?

 

[MCR74]

Trade him for a sack of beans. I don't care. Him and his daddy can go fleece some other team.

 

[kevsh]

Hmm, may be right up Mitch's alley. 3-on-3 so lots of dangles, very little contact, and apparently each team will have a $30M salary cap which means he can get paid Mitch Marner money there too.

 

[IPS]

Well today's comments at the presser certainly don't bode well for Mitch.

 

[Punch Drunk Loov]

By the sounds of the answers he's been asked to provide a list of teams by 5pm EOD

What was said?

All joking aside, that might be a perfect situation for him and Matthews.

 

[Dayjobdave]

The only way Mitch doesn't get moved/cut loose would seem to be if there was a shock deal for one of Auston or Willie, which i seriously doubt is happening.

Brendan could have come to the presser in a bus driver's uniform based on his comments - twice that i heard where he said the pattern is clear and the time for patience is over.

Sounds fake and it should start in 4 months?


edit: Not a single source apart from Steve. Shocker

 

[Jojalu]

I know this is the wrong thread but which media outlet is showing the 10:30 am presser today with Shanny, Tree, and Keith Pelle? I'm out in Calgary so local Toronto stations won't be useful.

EDIT: nevermind, the Leafs Youtube is carrying it LIVE.

Is he hanging out with Bieber at church?

 

[Arzak]

Trade them both to Utah

 

[Jojalu]

Trade them both to Utah

To me Matthews is a keeper.

I actually have zero issue with any of the core. Just not together anymore.

 

[disgruntleddave]

You do rember how horrible they are in overtime, right?

They like to juggle and dick around, not play hockey.

 

[centipede2233]

Has the presser already happened? Link of so?

 

[leafan11]

They don't name the players but they talk about it at +/- 01:14;30 "earthquake trade", bigger than the Hagel+ Fleury trade rumour.

It was for Erik Karlson

 

[Gary Nylund]

By the sounds of the answers he's been asked to provide a list of teams by 5pm EOD

LOL.

 

[BrannigansLaw]

Bye bye Mitch. It’s been a miserable time. Wish you success wherever you end up.

 

[MCR74]

Bye bye Mitch. It’s been a miserable time. Wish you success wherever you end up.

Notice how some of the usual suspects on the main board are now on Marner's side.

Whichever team trades for him better not expect much past April. It's not like Marner will automatically turn on a switch and become a beast in the playoffs.

 

[Mess]

It may not be as hard to trade Mitch Marner as some think.Toronto Maple Leafs GM Brad Treliving is already fielding calls on him according to Sportsnet's Nick Kypreos.​

There is concern around Leafs Nation that it will be difficult to trade Marner because of his no-movement clause and his cap hit, but according to Sportsnet's Nick Kypreos, there are a number of teams already calling about the winger.

"There are already multiple NHL teams that have reached out and shown a keen interest in a three-time all-star player who closes in on 100 points every season," Kypreos wrote in his Toronto Star column. "And that's with the knowledge that his next contract could land him as much as $100 million."

What a shame that Mitchy's the odd man out who's gonna miss out on the 2nd round Toronto Overpayment™.

Same. I meant Bieber and Marner ! Get a rock band instead !

Taking calls isn't the hard part.

I’m not here to single Mitch out, and please don’t read anything into my “ditch that Mitch” shirt I’m wearing, I just grabbed any OL shirt off the floor
