I think Edmonton winning would make it inevitable that McDavid came to Toronto. He can leave Edmonton feeling he didn't let them down or have unfinished business...but I think the appeal of being the player who brought a cup home after all these years is just too incredible to pass up and I do think he will return regardless.

He would have done something stupid like trade Willy for Karlsson
MM is not playing well at the moment but let’s the trade him….break the core….discussions after the end of the playoffs.

Looks like Marner checked out a little earlier than normal this year.
I don't understand how anyone can defend this anymore. Every spring it's the same thing. The playoffs start and Marner turns into David Copperfield.
His disappearing act makes Penn & Teller look amateurs.
This shouldn't be acceptable anymore. It never should have been in the first place. If these guys can't get the job done when it matters most why are they getting paid so much money.
Why are they even on the team.
It wouldn't be so bad if they at least went down fighting. These guys go out with a whimper every year. I guess the novelty of playing in the NHL wears off after a while and it just becomes like any other job.
It's only hockey, right Mitch?

Every day is a new opportunity, or another example of failure. It's up to Marner to decide how he wants to be remembered.

He's been extremely frustrating to watch because he has all the tools to be his vintage magic Mitch self.
He needs to find another gear in the playoffs, if he doesn't produce some magic this series he has to be the odd man out next year.
Come on Mitch, give me some magic tonight.

It’s too bad these no movement clauses are handed out like water.

In a career of playoff duds this series is a low for Marner. Just brutal.

So sick of seeing him play. Absolutely disappears far too often. Compare him to a gamer like Brayden Point. Smallish players but built completely different.
Let’s hope this is the end of him as a Leaf after this series

Maybe if he put the work in the off-season like Mackinnon or Crosby...or most elite players? He doesn't need to play physical, he doesn't need to go to dirty areas of the ice, doesn't need to train hard in the offseason... gets paid top dollar, gets top endorsement deals...damn life is good. Just need the media to stop being mean.

Every year it's the same thing
Every year more and more people notice it (why it's taken some this long is beyond comprehension though)

The city of Toronto is gonna become Chernobyl level toxic towards this kid after the Leafs season ends. I feel bad for him I do, but that's what the money is for.
