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?
