You know, judging by the takes I’ve seen on this site, I feel your whole team should be of Mitch Marner:
Quoting: pharrow
Marner is the most overpaid and worthless player in the league by a wide margin. His dad and agent had some nice marketing strategies that helped him get that 11 million dollar deal when he doesn’t even belong in the NHL. He gets carried so heavily by Matthews. He can’t score a goal to save his life and only earns assists which is the most meaningless stat in the sport since all he does is throw the puck in a random area for his teammates to do the work. You want to talk about defensive play, he doesn’t hit or block shots, he brings nothing. The Leafs are going to have a hard winning anything and no team is going to want to take on his contract. Paying 11 million for an AHLer. Good god.
Quoting: Gordon_Bombay
I’d much rather trade Marner than any other player on the Leafs this offseason. The guy is a waste of space on the ice. He doesn’t give any effort and kills any momentum the team generates. Funny thing is, no one complains since he’s a local boy. In all honesty, he is a pure product of his linemates and doesn’t have any individual ability. In London, he rode on Tkachuk and Dvorak’s coattails and now he’s riding on Matthews. Yet he still had the courage to ask for 11 Million. SMH.
Quoting: ChiHawk
The Leafs are going to have a very hard time getting anything more than a 4th for Marner, even then, they will need to add a significant sweetener because no one wants that contract. Marner’s stats and advanced analytics away from Matthews are horrendous, he is barely a replacement level player. Just a pure product of playing alongside elite centres. He is the biggest cap dump in the NHL and it’s not even close. No one knows what Kyle Dubas was thinking when he gave out that contract, but that is a big reason why they will never get anywhere in the playoffs.
Shutdown them and their defense can't do much. Even worse without Muzzin now.
Hopefully CBJ has enough left in the tank to finish it up tonight
CBJ Hawks and the Habs... it would make things interesting on all sides.... Penguins Hawks Leafs Oilers going for the 1st overall.... my question is could the Wild argue that this s technically the playoffs?
