    Any team willing to give Marner 12 million a year for 8 years need their heads examined. He’s only considered a 12 million player by these guys because the Leafs grossly overpaid him. A 90 point player who tops out at 30 goals a year and disappears in the playoffs is not worth close to 12 million. These guys are delusional. The media loves overrating thier own players.

      Career leafs core playoffs numbers, Willy 43pts and a +1, Matthews 48pts a +2, Tavares 24pts and a -9. Marner is at 50ptd and is a +10. Marner is the easy scapegoat but his numbers are the best. Sure, hes the one to move, at this point hes the easiest, but the truth is they just dont work together, and having 1/3 of your cap tied up in 4 forwards is dumb.

    Assuming Friedman is correct, you can kiss Marner goodbye, which would make a lot of Leaf fans happy. Friege claims Marner's agent Ferris usually walks his players to free agency. The problem with that is, there are some bigger guns heading to UFA status besides Marner. Draisaitl & Rantanen are UFA's in 2025 & I'm not sure how Colorado & Edmonton can fit them in at their much higher aav's. I value both of them ahead of Marner frankly. The Leafs will have a minimum of 27M to spend (or not) with Marner & Tavares off the books in 2025.

Holding them accountable for poor showings is part of the game, & we shouldn't, as fans, be treating them with such reverence, especially when the results of the team's on ice results don't necessarily deserve said reverence. Something needs to change in the locker room, whether its a coach, a trade, whatever, to convince these guys that maximum effort needs to br given every night, no matter what. Kyper is right, not everyone can thrive under the microscope of Toronto's sports media. The players need to decide in my opinion whether or not they can handle it. If not, they should move on.

      Neither perform in the crunch time of a series. They are both problems. And Marner scores most of his points early on the series, when the stakes aren't as high. Where was Marner in Game 7? He's not a problem, yet he has a chance at an empty net after Swayman mishandles the puck, and instead of going to the front of the net so he can put the puck in where he likely would get hit, he goes back behind the net? That's why he's not a playoff player.

    If this were Vegas, Marner and tavares would have been embarrassed by the organization and moved out of the organization. Toronto is too nice, and incompetent. You either want to win a stanley cup or you don't. If you don't get rid of these two, you're telling the fans you don't want to do everything possible to win. That's what you're saying.

    I think the main problem with the four top guys is so much of the team's cap space is invested in those four players who have essentially the same offensive skill set. This will sound like a shot from a Bruins fan living in the GTA but Tavares might be the grittiest of the four. But what does that say about the other three? The Bruins' goaltending is the backbone of their club. We B's fans knew that entering the season with all the UFAs, retirements of Bergie and Krejci and bargain bin FA signings. Are Matthews, Marner, Tavares and Nylander the backbone of the Leafs? Yes or no. And if it's not them, who or what is? If it's not these four elite players, as good a quartet of forwards as you can find in the league, then there's a fundamental flaw in the assessment, construction and balance of their roster and salary cap distribution set up and approved by the management group.
