Player Discussion Mitch Marner - On Hiatus

[BrannigansLaw]

Me too and i'm in my 30's.

In my 30s too and I’m wondering if I’ll ever see them win myself. At the rate we’re going we might actually land a man on Mars before we even make it to the finals again.

“At this point, the Marner camp led by veteran agent Darren Ferris is not working on a list of teams. They have no intention as of now of producing such a list. As far as the Marner camp is concerned, the star winger has one more year on his contract with the Leafs and intends to honor it,” LeBrun wrote in his article.

Thanks. To me this just reads that there haven't actually been discussions yet on a trade and that they still need to actually have that conversation, and Ferris is just posturing. Given how sensitive Marner is, I can't imagine that he will force himself to stay here for another year and walk to UFA when so much of the fanbase will hate him and if management wants to trade him as well. Mentally I am not sure he's able to handle those conditions, and I think Mitch will be open to a fresh start for himself as well. If he tries to drag this to UFA and leaves us with nothing he will be hated in his hometown for the rest of his career and onwards.

Well Tavares has been in the League 15 years, that must be what right there means. Who are we waiting on to figure it out?

Leafs management in terms of the uselessness of this core.

I agree with you regarding his legacy. I hope you're right in that he'll do the right thing.

Could you imagine if we progressed from

Leafs cup -> Man on moon -> Full blown living on another planet -> Leafs cup, maybe????

Marners ego is why he needs to be moved

IMHO, it's more his greediness and inability to earn his greedy salary in the playoffs.

And yes, despite NOT being paid in the playoffs, you still need to EARN your salary ALL SEASON LONG !!!

Please quote the exact excerpt.

That link shows Lebrun saying Mitch wont waive and right under it says Saverelli says 5% chance he stays......who is more trustworthy?

Doubt anyone truly knows. The people feeding insiders info are not being helpful nor will they reveal something critical while a contract is unsigned

The change already happened. We have a new suit at the table. We changed culture and identity for chemistry and unity.
Saddle up!

5 on 5, Matthews produced significantly more points with Domi than he did Marner this past season:

Matthews produced 1.61 more goals per 60 minutes with Domi, which is approximately a 101.90% increase compared to when playing with Marner.

Matthews produced 2.18 more points per 60 minutes with Domi, which is approximately a 79.27% increase compared to when playing with Marner.

If Matthews produced this much more with 3 million dollar Domi... just how overpaid is Marner? Or do people expect Domi to get 14 million on his next contract?

Knies-Matthews-Nylander was also better than Knies-Matthews-Marner

 

[Arzak]

Yes, I forgot about Hamilton, another odd duck they got rid of. Boston cares about winning and having their players conform to the team’s identity, if your a wacko your gone………


Mid March? He’ll be begging to be traded by Thanksgiving……….

Torey Krug, another one, tried to squeeze more than the Bruins were willing to pay, and they moved on.
The list never ends. Funny how other teams go through plenty of solid to great players in a search of working combination.

We went the other way.

Yeah, was just laughing about the post right above this one.

Gtfo. Domi assisted on only 5 of Matthews goals all season but don't let that fact get in the way of a good story.

According to Pierre Lebrun, Marner has no intention of submitting a limited trade list and intends to play out the final year of his contract in Toronto.

Treliving's hands may be tied in this case.

Ehh unfortunate, but I get it from Marner's perspective. Home town boy who wants to win here. Probably believes they can do it too. Unfortunately 4 forwards making $10M+ makes it nigh impossible to do so. Especially when one of those players post 3 points in 7 games.

Probably over half the fans want him to move on. Playing here despite not being wanted reminds me of some politicians. Those are some grinders.

If he leaves I am having a Marner jersey burn out for charity. You are welcome to join and burn out your extensive collection of Marner jerseys and make kids smile.

Its going to be a hoot. Sadly I never had one of his jerseys so I will be there for the joyous occasion and snacks.
