Ferris does not say that. Actually, absolutely nothing says that.The "information" (which isn't mine) clearly says non-Leaf players were not used as comparables.

It clearly does.Ferris does not say that. Actually, absolutely nothing says that.
Can’t put that game on him
3A, with 2 nice ones
After a bad first period he picked it up. Was pretty good tonight.
You bet and nobody here can take these nights away from the guy. We all know he is good but man, 30m into JT MM and MR is a pretty large red flag.
It clearly doesn't. Your whole argument was about what Ferris said, but instead of actually looking at what Ferris said, you found an article that says something that Ferris didn't say, and then you have taken the claim in that article that is contrary to Ferris' actual words and twisted it further to suggest something that absolutely nobody has ever said. It's like you're trying to play a bad game of broken telephone when the actual words are right in front of you.It clearly does.
That's not true, of course.The worst part is the A was part of his contract demands last time.
Some of us got to this point years ago.agreed the cap distribution isn't good and when our stars do not perform in the playoffs at a high clip it makes it hard to justify. I think there is common ground between both sides on that. I'll admit at this point I'm torn. Part of me says maybe letting him go and reallocating the money might be good, part of me says letting him go is a big mistake. But we have to try something different if they fail to make an impact in the playoffs this year.

Yes you can always argue both sides, and this place would be so much better if people had a little more respect for differing opinions. In any case, we have now locked in 3 of our "stars" so moving on from Marner is the only major move that can be made. I think they'll resign him though and keep doing what they've been doing, I guess you never know though. We'll see.Fair, but I don’t think there’s anything wrong with wanting to believe in the core as well as a fan. Sometimes optimism is good.
I’ve been guilty of telling the other side they are wrong which I’m going to make an effort to stop doing. But both sides can be validated in their views.
Not sure if you have been in here at all but you can always blame the game on him, even if hes not on the ice when something goes wrong.Can’t put that game on him

I guess you’re still putting together the plus/minus chart from last nightFormer Leafs Defenseman Blames Mitch Marner for Power Play Struggles
View attachment 922371
As Carlo Colaiacovo points out, however, with a wide-open cage, Swayman completely out of position, and the defender not in-line to block the shot, Marner opted to pass it off instead of putting the puck in the wide open cage. While he collected 3 assists in the game to give him a team-high 10 points on the year, it's situations like this that drive the city and its fan base nuts.

With a struggling power play, simplification is of the utmost importance, but the Leafs seem more content with whipping passes around then firing shots towards the net. With the likes of Marner, Auston Matthews, William Nylander, John Tavares, and Morgan Rielly among others, it's unacceptable to have just 3 power play goals to start the year and 10 goals in their last 35 regular season contests, going back to February 27th.
