Mack bumps into him walking into the locker room, Mitch goes flying into the garbage can, McDavid says "what were the odds of that?? For more crazy odds/parlays head on over to BetMGM"Would love to see video of Marner training with Mackinnon and Marner.
Can't disagree here, there's a lot of short memories in Toronto.90% of fans will be thrilled. The rest will be grumpy.
Oneill on Overdrive saying the things Ive been saying about Marner:
- Marner being treated like a pee wee hockey player. All these players coming out to "support him".
- Doesnt like how Marner doesnt acknowledge that they need to win and talks as if people are out to get him. Oneill indicates that its Toronto and if you lose it happens, but "nobody is out to get you" Oneill.
- Training in the offseason to get bigger and faster is standard for all players
Win is not the priority…….cash is and always be the priorityThey never mention the word win. Makes me think that’s not the top priority.
And he will end up with 96 points making it 8 years of not getting 100 points………….cue the excusesThere is such an obvious outcome to this. He is going to be pacing for 120 points by the end of November and the Leafs will sign him to a positively monstrous contract. 90% of fans will be thrilled. The rest will be grumpy.
It would be an interesting sociological experiment to see if fans would love these guys if they won one Cup and then never reached that level again as Leafs.And he will end up with 96 points making it 8 years of not getting 100 points………….cue the excuses
The answer is yes, forever love. The 4 Conference final teams of the last 30 years all achieved sainthood. A Finals appearance would be immortal status. A Cup win.. that'sIt would be an interesting sociological experiment to see if fans would love these guys if they won one Cup and then never reached that level again as Leafs.
But Marner is never going to be "that guy".. no matter how much he is paid.. all his life, he's been given the best pathway, he's never had to dig hard for his success, and it shows during playoffs.. this is nit a player that can lead, instead, a wonderful accessory piece to an established core..The answer is yes, forever love. The 4 Conference final teams of the last 30 years all achieved sainthood. A Finals appearance would be immortal status. A Cup win.. that'sMarnerGod level forever.
It's a straightforward scale.
