He plays in all situations, scored more points and makes other players around him better. Cheers I don't think so. I love Marner and his skill and creativity but a lot of his 94 pts are a result of his line mates. Hyman is an unsung hero and JT potted 47 last year. Defensively AM is far better than Marner. 1
chris.brock Posted September 13, 2019 Report Posted September 13, 2019 I too am kinda pissed, at least very disappointed with Marner. I think he's tarnished his image. He's probably lost a lot of endorsements and far more money than his agent can get him because he now looks like a greedy pig. Point, Laine, Rantanen, Marner, let'em sit for a season, damn em

LostAnotherOne Posted September 13, 2019 Report Posted September 13, 2019 Honestly I don't care what Dubas does as long as you keep Rielly, Matthews, and Marner together for there whole careers in Toronto something is going to happen. I wouldn't want Dubas's job thou. I'm predicting Marner gets 11×5 or 6. He's a winger, but he is so good.

chris.brock Posted September 14, 2019 Report Posted September 14, 2019 (edited) looking back, funny what some guys posted in this thread not too long ago- Marner is gone Marner will be a hab the Leafs roster will get blown up and decimated this summer the Leafs are screwed because of the cap lol Edited September 14, 2019 by chris.brock 1
leaf4 Posted September 14, 2019 Report Posted September 14, 2019 This AAV won't hurt so bad once Seattle buys in and the US broadcasting deal is renegotiated. The cap is expected to rise above 95 million in a few years, which is just in time to re sign Rielly and potentially Freddy if they're going to be adding him for a few more years at that point might not be necessary

John Bacon Posted September 14, 2019 Report Posted September 14, 2019 Interesting. I wonder if he was betting on the Senators... https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/news/u-casino-sues-ottawa-senators-140748215.html

Sorry but I think that the leafs are screwed even if the cap goes up. Reily going to ask for big money too in a year from now. Plus there will be animosity between the players making 7+ million and the players making < than 1 million a year. Its going to be interesting how management keeps the team together this year. Goalie Fredrik Andersen is not the best Leaf, but he is the most important. If he gets hurt, the team’s top backup option is three jumbo bags of flour strapped into pads. Andersen’s going to be looking for a raise in a couple of years and, based on the way Kyle Dubas & Co. have been splashing around cash, he’s unlikely to limit his financial aspiration. This could conceivably work if the salary cap rises steeply, but that’s a basis for prayer rather than planning.

Squid Posted September 16, 2019 Report Posted September 16, 2019 (edited) Yeah it came from one of the sports writers. I don't know who or how good the leafs back up is presently. I just thought it was funny how he described the back up. Edited September 16, 2019 by Squid
AKRISONER Posted September 16, 2019 Report Posted September 16, 2019 lmao, is that what weve come to? The leafs are so damn good now that all writers can critique is that our backup isnt good enough ? 1
Squid Posted September 16, 2019 Report Posted September 16, 2019 It all starts tonight!!! FINALLY!!!!!!

chris.brock Posted September 16, 2019 Report Posted September 16, 2019 (edited) Reilly is under contract until 2022??? So the Leafs upgrade from Sparks to Hutch but now the sky is falling because of weakness in goal??? ? good luck to the scabs if Price gets hurt and Keith Kinkaid has to play I think the scabs are screwed, they only have $4M in cap space left, nothing to spend it on (Gardiner wouldn't even play in Montreal) and the whole team is basically garbage Edited September 16, 2019 by chris.brock
