Marner Predictions - What Happens Now

[Arzak]

I have heard this theory more than once.

I don't think anyone can prove it, but I am quite certain that we post among player agents, players or their family and staff. It has to be, the extent and who we don't know.

It's a hockey centric site sheltered from X drama and anonymous so it makes sense for Jr's and players cutting their teeth wanting to see what the raw fan level perception is of them is, if only for curiosities sake.

Journalists mine these forums for talking points. Lots of people bring up interesting things here. I remember a bunch of us talking about the Leafs problems leading to a lost generation of Leafs fans and within 48hrs I think Dregger was talking about that. Seen a lot of that.

It seems more likely than the alternative. It would be weirder if none of them were here.

I also think that it applies twice for people talking hockey for a living.

Not to mention I had a similar experience watching Dangle podcast post postseason. No evidence, but it felt like they were re-hashing what was discussed here close to verbatim.

What is 3 points in 7 playoff games? Amazing or horrible for a player making 10.9M and asking for more next year. Just curious. How about a 16 goal/82 game pace across 57 playoff games? Amazing or horrible?

Leading the team in points?

TRADE MARNER

Just getting in my daily rep, like this savage.

God bless you, good Sir.

Could Mitch sponge off this savage? I've read somewhere that he sponges stuff.

Also #untradable

 

[HamiltonNHL]

Would be very interesting to see what Marner can do without Matthews for an extended period of time.

yes please. He should lead the third line to see his independent value.

 

[GoonieFace]

Leading the team in points?

Same number of points Lybushkin got in the playoffs?

actually true. I have big changes to reflect this reality.

TRADE MARNER DITCH MITCH

Just getting in my daily rep, like this savage.

 

[Arzak]

Why does Marner have these defenders and no one else does? These people have to be paid or literally Paul, right?

I mean people like players but these few posters are on another level I have never seen for anyone else.

It is more prevalent in contract years.

I think that we'll hear about it from Paul in his book once Mitch hangs them. It's the combination of his PR team and Mitch Marners style of hockey, kill momentum in order to improve your possession metrics, and give away pucks to the opposition goalie with 0% chance for rebound or scoring. They don't call him advanced stat darling for nothing.

There will be a documentary about his expected goals per 60 and his PR team one day.

A simple calculation shows you, the Leafs already paid Mitch buttloads millions of $$$. They don't owe him any other favors.

Sit him till he waves, and recoup what you can.

Edit:
Technically Leafs owe him $750,000 for the upcoming season, out of $65,418,000 RFA contract. Enough?

 

[notDatsyuk]

Leading the team in points?

Third in 5v5 points per 60 and tied for third in ES points.

How? @Dekes For Days

Auto like lie about Mitch that makes him look less pathetic? Strange from someone talking about facts being facts.

1​	Auston Matthews	26​	F	5​	1​	3​	4​
2​	Max Domi	28​	F	7​	1​	3​	4​
3​	Tyler Bertuzzi	28​	F	7​	1​	3​	4​
4​	William Nylander	27​	F	4​	3​	0​	3​
5​	Matthew Knies	21​	F	7​	2​	1​	3​
6​	Mitchell Marner	26​	F	7​	1​	2​	3​

Mitch wasn't leading anything with his 3 points. Solid 6th place.

Surely you are smarter than this post.

He referenced his career at the end of his post.

Marner is leading the team in points over the timeframe of his career.

This is not rocket science.

Your chart also has him tied for 4th in points with Nylander and Knies.

Third in 5v5 points per 60 and tied for third in ES points.

Neat.

Same number of points Lybushkin got in the playoffs?

Read above.

He gets attacked unfairly.

He deserves a lot of blame, but it is ridiculous now.

These people have to be paid or literally Paul, right?

40 IQ level post, it is such a lazy and pointless thing to say.

"Leading the team in points"

There's some facts.

 

[A1LeafNation]

We already have a #1RW and he is paid a lot.

We don't need our #2RW making over 10m.

 

[Maple Leaf]

I dont care who was cryin or what nylander says win some rounds

 

[BraveCanadian]

Congrats to the 16.5% of us who correctly predicted he would start the season with the team and with an A.

Sorry irrational haters.

 

[rumman]

Or a Joe Strummer bio movie.

Leave Joe alone, if the Leafs had half his passion they’d win the cup every year…….

 

[rumman]

Nylander has them as well.

Most of Leaf Nation has a serious man crush on the likes of 34, 16, and 88. It’s nit a good situation imo, they’re great hockey players, but the adoration is disturbing……

 

[RunItBackAgain]

Nylander has them as well.

It’s quite different and you know it.

 

[HamiltonNHL]

probably against NHLPA.

Why? Teams carry 13 forwards all the time. Not saying that would be a good idea or not just saying I don’t think that would be an issue

They’re like Gods man. Cmon you know it’s true.

People just hate Marner for no reason, it's crazy because he is such an amazing playoff performer and people here can only say things like "his music taste is bad, his dog looks stupid, why doesn't he use his full first name"

Yeah Marner just gets hate for no reason, has nothing to do with him being awful in the playoffs and having one of the biggest contracts in the league.

 

[HamiltonNHL]

Can we all agree he didn’t live up to his last contract ?

And he needs a pay cut ?
