Mark's "Rant" in the video regarding Burkie's thoughts on Marner and Nylander seemed pretty flawless in my opinion. Great passion and analysis within that video. Good job guys!
Not taking sides, but Burke's comments are honest and something to think about. Marner is probably being roasted unfairly for the recent playoff run and people forget he is a playmaker and also plays shorthanded. Nylander rarely back checks and doesn't play a full 60 all the time. So...interersting . Finally, the real issue is the need to get rid of Tavares's huge contract and that's another year and that's just the way it goes. Great post as always boys!

You are beyond delusional. I don’t know what some of you fans are watching. Marner is soft, weak and frail. He’s becoming more predictable and has become stagnant in his creativity. 2 assists in 7 playoff games.
Much respect for Burkie, but I think he’s wrong. In my eyes, Nylander is to Toronto what Pasternak is to Boston.

Doesn’t matter though, leaf’s are loaded with no movement clauses and cap issues.
Said it the day it happened. Still saying it. Biggest mistake was giving 11m X 7 to JT. 30 other teams could have used him. Toronto did not need him. They had their core. The Shan NO Plan isn't working.
We've witnessed Mr. Burkes judgment as a GM up close and ah, yeah. Moving on, "giving it one more try to see what the team can do" has a bit of a familiar ring to it", no? But, but it can be true that coaches do have a shelf life before players start turning them out, and some of these guys were in the minors with Sheldon. So it will be interesting to see if a new bench boss will help. The only problem is Sheldon had a really good record. It seems he was doing his best with what he had? So then it becomes a GM issue. Should any player be untouchable for the right price? Who on the team was not tradeable for Tkachuk when he was leaving Calgary, if he would have considered coming of course.
I kinda agree. I wouldn’t get rid of both of the kids. The man out is JT or keep JT and hope he will take a short contract, He is amazing. But you really should keep your future young kids.
Trade the best playoff performer you have. Brilliant idea. I'm thinking that's why he now works for the women's league
Can you imagine the Leafs had Tyler Seguin and Dougie Hamikton instead of Kessel in the Phaneuf years? Thats the 1st round picks Burkie traded away for Kessel. Nylander has been the only one of the core 4 who has showed up in the playoffs in the last few years. If Nylander didnt miss those first few playoff games this season it would have been a different series. Burkie had his chance to run the Leafs and they were horrible.
Trade both.

I hate to agree with Burkie but ..... Tree will not want a repeat of his Calgary experience. I prefer a good defensive player, that is not 88 and signed for 8 years brings back more than signed for 1 year ......if I can't keep both one must go

They can keep both. Wtf are you on. They have 10 defenseman signed and you only need 6 and 3 goalies and you only need 2. They have 11 forwards signed and only need 1 more to fill the roster. It's a 23 man roster and they have signed 24 players. Hey can send players to the minors to make cap space.
Regardless of what you think about Burkey, he’s smarter than every single one of us in this chat when it comes to hockey and roster construction. Not that everything he says is right, but his opinion is probably better than most.
You guys keep on saying Marner only had one bad postseason ….. fellas get your facts straight from Marner every postseason he has been soft .. Marner needs to go
Marner isn't built for the playoffs and disappears almost every postseason. It's too physical for him.
Burke is wrong with this one. When it's game 6 or 7 in the playoffs, Marner folds like a cheap suit.
I would not trade either of the two
i said to trade nylander years back and so did burke this isnt new , but leaf fans dont get it , you cant replace marners defence complete 2 way player

You can find defensive two ways guys for 1/4 the cost of Marner contract. Marner doesn't score, he plays perimeter hockey which leads to turnovers and he has a shitty attitude. He's open about how his goal is to make as much money as possible. I was onboard trading Nylander last season and the year prior but he's signed now and what message does it send that we have to trade Nylander after signing him long term so we can accommodate some guy who over half the fanbase wants gone anyway?
4:10, yep he's all that until when it matters.
New contract for Marner and wait for Tavares contract to end seems to be the way Leafs have decided to go?
I didn’t know Burkie is the Leafs new GM lmao
I dont think you should trade either of them...wait out JT and dont resign him.
Stay the course. Shanny is a genius!!!
Leafs should wait for the JT contract to expire before they decide to move on from Marner
Marner IS offesively BETTER offensively the Nylander. He is not a liability. He has Hockey IQ that is insane. Nylander has a GREAT contract year but before that he was not skating fast or back checking. He was a cherry picker. Keep Both. Matthews is a PURE scorer. Marner is a magician as far as passing and scoring when he needs to. Nylander drives the play BUT no way is he going to be a consistent 40 goal scorer.
Anyone listening to Brian Burke and parroting his stupid comments shouldn't leave their house. Its the most moronic and uninformed comment in the off season.
I would honestly trade Nylander instead of Marner. Mariner will eventually figure it out and Nylander will get back more in a trade. Mariner will end up being better in the long run. I believe that with all my heart 💙

@@akumasdeception yes that’s true. I’m hoping this is a wake-up call for him and with the new coach he finally grows a pair.
But they can't keep the team as is???? 8 yrs 1 playoff win 20 yrs 1 playoff win. 1967 58 yrs no cup 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️. Let Marner walk for nothing wtf 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️🤯🤯🤯🤬🤬🤬
Has he not destroyed enough teams? He needs to come here Toronto and try to destroy us as well. Don’t you go home? They’re Berkey.
When are you so called insiders. Going to realize they can't trade Marner. They can't break up the band. If anything will give Marner the bag and not resign Tavares at a hideous 11 million.
I don't like the way Nylander plays. While offensively talented, he lacks denfensive work ethic. I am tired of seeing him floating around without moving his legs, reaching in with his stick, and avoiding physical contact. Marner has killed penalties most of his career. It is terrifying to watch Wee Willie glide around without any urgency on the PK.
Marner should get traded. The Leafs need to end the soft culture in which Marner is a leader and promoter of.

He literally gave Matthews 69 goals name on player who can do that. Moronic people always talk but should never be heard.

@@honkingantalope You’re slow and delusional. Matthews career high in goals was with Domi. Marner was injured and even when Marner came back he was put on the second line. In the couple of games when Domi was injured, Marner was back with Matthews and the scoring stopped. You Marner fanboys never learn.

You guys and all of leafnation need to stop drinking the kool-aid.. You guys see this team do so well in the regular season.. Then cant perform in the playoffs cause they are soft.. You rightfully demand change.. But then your are all with running it back.. What!! Youce tried new coaches.. You've traded abd changed Dmen.. Bottom 6 guys.. Goalies.. Gms.. But nothing has workee! But you guys are unwilling to make the big trade you need to do. Yall just keep putting on band-aid fixes and hope for home town discount contracts and bargain bin shopping
