@SuitablePolitic The US media shredded Matthews all tournament. There are dozens of articles you could find that prove that. Leafs fans and Leafs media have been critical of the team because they lost 8 straight game 7s in the Matthews era, and he’s taken the least criticism of all the stars.
@usher933 I take full accountability. In 2021 I was gripping my beer too tight in my basement and caused Mitch to shoot the puck over the glass multiple times. How could they possibly perform with the pressure of all 0 people in the crowd on their shoulders
@DanPierce53 @AbdulBCRT@CorsiHL Marner shot the puck over the glass more in that series than he shot the puck into the net in 3 years. Some level of fault has to lie there.
@charlesjavelona Other than the obvious difference in size/market of the two countries… Canadian investment is very conservative. Americans are risk takers by nature and their funds reflect that. Even getting a business loan from a big bank in Canada is challenging
@BringBackBabs Rielly was the only one who did the right thing on that play. Gave Nylander an easy outlet and gained the zone with speed. Gave Knies an easy option into the corner to keep possession. Matthews didn’t read the hard rim and Willy just stood there while his man beat him.
@ScriptTrooper@JFreshHockey On one hand it’s believable on the other hand Marner’s camp has used the media to play the victim card since he was a rookie so I have doubts
@JFreshHockey For years Leaf haters made fun of how soft Marner and co are and how they cant win. Now he leaves and it’s actually the fans fault for chasing away a stud. We weren’t the ones firing the puck over the glass in empty buildings. Not only his fault ofc but they accomplished nothing
@Sammy_canada2@CTVKitchener If they had a 90% cut it would still be almost 40% international students. That’s how insane it is. It needs to be 95-98% reduction
