16 and 34 could not score 5 v 5 or 5 v 4. Marner with 65 and 47 is a waste of Marner who needs goal scorers to be effective.
Maybe not Soup or Engvall but what about Robertson and Spezza? The other is that 11mil players should make others better. Brown, Kap, Hyman, and AJ were all 20 goals scorers playing with AM. JT made a few grinders into top 6 wingers. Why can’t Marner do the same?

And this my friends, is why so many people think Marner doesn't give a crap about winning. The day after the presser where he said he wouldn't change a thing about his preparation to do better next year, he was reportedly seen golfing. Now he's on vacation smiling like a cheshire cat while Leafs fans still do a slow burn about his effort during the playoffs. He's an immature, petulent, selfish kid. Some posters just gotta admit that he just doesn't care as much as they think he does.

Should he be doing laps around a rink he built by hand or what will make you feel better about his efforts?

He was on vacation. Who cares.

... I remember being super excited when Christian Hanson got an assist in his first professional game.... then I saw the replay and realized he had the puck in the defensive zone and Phil Kessel pretty much stole it from him and went end to end and scored.

But i digress.... has anyone's goal totals been spiked by playing with Marner? We don't know.... but we do know that both Tavares and Matthews were goal scoring machines without Marner. The best passers in the game blow up their linemates stats... like Joe Thornton, see Jonathon cheechoo and devon setoguchi....

We should be able to put 11 million dollar Marner on a line next year with Robertson and Robertson should scored 30 goals.... if Marner is worth his salt.

maybe he doesn't need to post his vacation on social media?

is that even a possibility for millennials? Even if he doesn't get it, he should have someone advising him who does.

Why does this upset you so much?

Imagine being this upset that someone has a life outside of their profession.

His last 2 centres have won the Rocket and had a career high year in goals playing with Marner.

The only time he hasn't produced is in the playoffs with Matthews under Keefe. (his role was different in 2019)

Yes.....his own line might be a great idea. Problem is AM34 may pout again, and Keefe isn't bright enough to think of it.

Yep, it's like he thinks he's a movie star and needs to put up things like this...some would call these filters...and the more insecure individuals like to post such things.

Brayden Point a small guy but so fearless if only Marner could have some of that... why is Point getting paid so little compared to Marner?
 
Contrition? Awareness? Sensitivity? Humility?

As Babs would say, "How's that?"

So you want him to feel sorry for himself in the basement and not do anything until he needs to start working out for the season again?

He could make himself more accountable for what happened during the season and the way it ended. It didn't seem like he took enough responsibility with being a "leader" on this team.

But at this point, who cares what he does. If he wants to post a picture of a tuna sandwich, go for it.

Apparently he cares whether other people care, otherwise why even posts? And then he cares enough to delete it based on how others feel.

I have no problem if he goes on vacation, but why do you think the IG Pic got taken down quickly?

His team's fans are still pissed off about ANOTHER collapse and he's too stupid to keep a low profile while the playoffs are still on.

Just another example of Mitch being self centred and immature. Not exactly helping his cause.
 
Don't you guys see Marner raking in his endorsement $$$ money during the offseason.

Usually in the 3rd period during these playoff game I see him come on during commercials selling Life insurance and other things.





 
Do you say the same about our highest paid player? Or is it just mitch we cant win with?

Matthews makes more, is signed for less tern and has only been marginally better yet escapes almost all criticism.
I see your point, and I don’t think he should get a pass either. I don’t give players passes and both big boys didn’t shown up. I just think trading Marner makes more sense as the media and fans have turned on him more than they have on Matthews. Is it justified? To an extent, but the hate one gets compared to the other is ludicrously different, apart from the basic arguments such as playmaker vs goal scorer and winger vs Center; I also think it’s better to move on from Marner than Matthews, it’s gonna be hard for Marner to win back the fans like he had before the signing, and that has a chance at. I’d love to see us win with both, but I don’t see it happening

He is mocking the Leaf fans by doing this. No real fan wants to see him on the beach. They want to see him on the ice battling for the Cup. It just demonstrates how little respect he has for the fans, the team and himself. He's a self-centered punk. Not only that, isn't he also making a mockery of the system by going away when we're all supposed to avoid travel except for essential purposes. Oh, I guess going south with a few babes is essential for him, after all, it was very difficult for him to suck as badly as he did. His fans will think it's cool.

Kid said he was off social media when asked about the rumor he refused to switch with 88 on the PP. Kid has some growing up to do.
 
No, they did not not. The cup had not happened.
maybe you should look at their cap hits coming off their rfa's , i'll save you the trouble 11.09 for both compared to 14.64 and 13.38

but i'm surprised that you disappeared instead of putting our latest 7 game series loss in ''context''

Steve Dangle put it pretty well. Does an $11 million center need an $11 million winger to produce $11 million in value? Or does the $11 million winger need the $11 million center? And why do we have a back up $11 million center behind them? Ultimately, who is the straw that stirs the drink?
Great. We have Steve f***ing dangle now being cited.
This place has lost it's way.

Not sure what that has to do with what I said. Yes, Matthews and Marner got bigger contracts, because they had shown to be better players at time of signing. Pretty simple.

Zach Hyman is the Leafs that stirs the drink.

Those other guys make too much money to stir their own drinks.
