<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>WN88</b></div><div>We're talking about a player who's scored at a 100-point pace the past four seasons while also being the team's best penalty killer, 5-on-5 defensive player, and an integral quarterback on the powerplay and pretty much every aspect of the team's game. Heck, when we're down to 5 d-men in a game, he'll take shifts on defence because he's good at that too.

I've watched just about every single game of the Matthews era. Marner is not nearly as bad as this brain-rot delusional fanbase wants you to believe. Sure, he's had some underwhelming playoff performances relative to the fans' expectations, expectations that were mostly brought on by himself (for being such a good player). But the truth is that the entire team underperforms as well. This fanbase just always needs a scapegoat. Man, there was literally a time when Willy was the most hated guy on the team, and Marner was the fan-favourite.

What I'm trying to say is, Marner won't 'go on a bender.' He's already one of the best players in the entire league, and will be a Maple Leaf for a long, long time.</div></div>

I assume then you are in the shrinking camp of keeping the core together and trying again?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Haymaker26</b></div><div>I've been interested in targeting OEL this offseason, but I don't think replacing Pettersson with him is going to result in a defense that's good enough. Marner is an impact player for sure, but I think the Pens' bottom 6 and defensive flaws need to be addressed, which Marner makes much harder. In this case the bottom 6 isn't better and the defense is worse. And it cost us our top prospect to do it.</div></div>

There is no replacing MP and I admit the defense is clearly worse. I do not think the bottom six is worse though. Trenin is an upgrade over Smith at this point and Kampf is certainly no worse than Acciari. Marner is a 90-100 point winger who has always been counted on to be one of the leaders. In this team he does not have to worry about that and I think the guy would only benefit from getting out of the Toronto media world.

Enjoy watching him waste the rest of Crosbys career, atleast you got one last jab in at the Leafs. Bet you're going to sleep real good tonight knowing you got to make the same joke that's already been told a million times before. You really showed us. It's a shame you're wasting your superior intellect in a Capfriendly forum. Someone of your level should be out making a cure for cancer or something.</div></div>

Dude I was rooting for the Leafs lol. I was simply stating facts… something or someone somewhere is clearly mad at the whole franchise. You don’t screw up this often in game 7s… it’s not normal.
