Player Discussion Mitch Marner

[Pavel10]

The level he needs to be at is so much higher and his abilities can't take him there

He's a regular season player through and through.

I hope treliving chooses him as the one to ship out

I keep hearing this. It's a contract year. His contract sucks. The return is going to be minsucle.

I'd deal him for a 1st + B prospect

The typical return for a 1 year rental. I don't want him on this team, invest that in a true goalie or defencemen or 2 wingers/centers who actually play like domi and bertuzzi do

He might be begging Tre to trade him if they lose this series.

 

[1specter]

Outside of the one sequence with the pass and the almost goal, he was garbage again. Please leave

ship him off to some obscure random team and let him rot there

He can go be the gaudreau to some other team. We need our tkachuk

If the 1st is at the draft and a top 10 pick, I don't see why we shouldn't consider it.

 

[Stringer Bell]

Aside from that assist he actually looked worse.

 

[Stephen]

I see it different. He used all his edges just carrying the puck up ice, rather than skate fast.
I saw him play almost every shift between the face off circles, never lower in either end and never closer to the boards.
He is super skilled puck handler, great skater, has in his junior career been a playoff leader but that part of his game has not translated. He appears not to be able or willing to extend himself to playoff level in the NHL.
I have used the word coward, rather poorly, because he is not a coward, but certainly has not performed. AM has figured it out. You can see it.

Marner’s a wimp. We don’t need to c cut around that. This guy plays the most precious game and then you look around at what everyone else is absorbing and dishing out to make plays.

 

[centipede2233]

Marner needs to be traded this summer after his big bonus is given on July 1st. I don’t give a crap about his NMC. if he says he won’t waive, you tell him enjoy your contract year in the press box, that should change his mind

 

[Eternal Leaf]

If they give him 12M+ x 8, the next decade is gone.

Oh well, I'll take the cap space.

JT and Marner destroyed our team. JT has been worth the contract for exactly the first year. Marner has consistently sucked ASS in the playoffs.

Obviously, I agree with this. But I'm hearing constant nonsense "well trade him for a top dman". No, that's not going to happen. For 1 year of Mitch marner.

 

[AuraSphere]

Marner needs to be benched - worst player on the ice 3 games in a row lol

Best u might get back is Seth Jones out of Chicago

 

[GoonieFace]

Maybe we get reverse Marner, sucks early, steps up late…one can hope

 

[saffronleaf]

do not resign marner under any circumstances

he's such a weakling, coward, and loser

 

[ToneDog]

Pay Marner. He will figure it out one year. You know like Stevie Y and OV did. Lol.

 

[sunstersun]

Force him to give up his NTC or let him walk for nothing.

The cap space with no return is better than Marner.

 

[BertCorbeau]

Marner’s a hometown kid living the dream.. I don’t want to give up on him.

But f*** he just isnt a playoff performer

And Domi is showing he can be an effective winger for Matthews

 

[Aashir]

figure what out? He's got it all figured out

He's an elite defensive forward..it's been brought up in this very thread, Keefe said his defence has been elite. If Keefe says so it has to be the case. Doesn't matter that he is supposedly a selke winner but can't read a play and guard the open man, or that he just watches a board battle

also doesn't matter that he can't help the team offensively, or that he can't shoot a puck that isn't 40 feet out

Mitchell Marner, with his Gretzky-IQ already knows everything there is to about playoffs. It's the others fault for not playing the way he wants

 

[Punch Drunk Loov]

This might be frustration talking but a package of futures for Marner might be good enough.

1st round pick from a bad team
B+ Prospect

Leafs retain him down to 8.5M to get an extra 2nd or something

So you have your return of good picks, plus cap to spend

 

[BertCorbeau]

Thing is Marner may just be better in a low pressure market

Could easily see him go Kadri if they trade him

Which would be infuriating

He's actually a stupid player with the dumbest IQ turnovers, puck over the board, and sissy perimeter play in the league.

My god the dude has 11 playoff goals in his CAREER and like half of them are fluky blue line shots.

If this is who he is here, that doesn't help either party sadly

His seasons usually kind of end like this, this is what he’s like in big moments when the moment gets “too big.”
