Player Discussion Mitch Marner

[Antropovsky]

1 goal and 3 points in 7 games. His desperation level was that of an exhibition game.

 

[SoVi3t]

Marner has to go. Nothing else to say. Any money spent on him is a complete waste if we want the Cup.

 

[wingman75]

Talk about a depreciated asset. This guy is like the worst investment anyone has ever made.

In game 7 alone, would not go anywhere near the front of the net... had multiple opportunities. And just lets Pasta skate away from him to score the winner, like zero effort to even keep up. Thought he had a great hockey IQ. Most of us could see what was coming there.

I do not want to see him in a Leafs uniform ever again. I don't care what we get in return...

 

[CapspaceKiller]

He's mentally weak and plays a style that doesn't win.

He's the odd man out.

 

[Stephen]

Morgan Reilly is NOT a #1 d man ffs holy crap this team is so poorly constructed

Rielly was regular season daydreaming on that OT goal. Didn't play the puck or have any body positioning on the Bruin and went for a lame stick check with the season over. Nice one Morgan.

 

[likecheese]

Why even gripe about him, he's played his last game as a Leaf.

Marner's gotta go. He contributed nothing of high quality value in that Bruins series and seems to be regressing in mental and physical maturity.

 

[IPS]

This was honest to god a repeat of his disaster vs Montreal in 2021.

My god how f*** do you have any pride wearing that jersey playing like that, what a disgrace.

 

[MarMarSab3]

Hopefully his last game as a leaf

 

[All Mod Cons]

Honestly, that might be it for Mitch.

 

[Nineteen67]

Everytime I thought Marner was mucking it up and attempting to make a play, it turns out it was 19 and not 16.

Nope. Avoiding contact, again. In game 7. It's just not in him.

 

[namttebih]

2 assissts in 16 periods of game 7 hockey. Questions?

He ended his Leafs career with his head back and his patented look to the heavens.

 

[tp71]

I've never seen a Leaf player shrink more in big games. Ever.

 

[thewave]

How does anyone defend that shit.

 

[Tak7]

The lack of offense was largely excused by many due to the great job he & his line had been doing on Pastrnak throughout the series.

Pastrnak blows right by him for the series winner.

I love Mitch. I think his best years are still to come.

I love this team more. Think I'm ready for something different

 

[Leafy Undergrowth]

 

[ITM]

Yep. Looked like Pastrnak was his assignment and it looked like he simply resigned himself to whatever was going to happen was up to Sammy and (hopefully?) Reilly.

It's the habit of effortlessness blessed with enough talent to justify it in the regular season....and that must be a hell of a chemical to turn off.

But here's the reality: He's not going anywhere until 2025. And who knows from there.

 

[PromisedLand]

TRADE THIS OVERPAID TRASH

 

[Phion Keneuf]

Total no show. Waive that NMC. Best for both parties.

 

[saffronleaf]

they need to explore moving marner or, if that is simply not possible, then let him walk when his contract expires

he's more kyle wellwood than patrick kane

 

[MSZ]

Trade him for a bag of golf balls.

 

[Stephen]

Everytime I thought Marner was mucking it up and attempting to make a play, it turns out it was 19 and not 16.

When I saw Marner have the ability to hit Marchand on the boards and didn't, I was like "of course, Mitch is different and doesn't have to do any of the normal chores."

 

[Eternal Leaf]

Fitting end there for the "elite" shutdown winger. Pastrnak OT winner as he flies by Marner.

Joke of a player and should be asked to waive. Got clowned all series long and adds another brutal chapter of mediocrity to his playoff career. I have no idea how anyone can defend him at this point.
