Paul hendrick has to be the nicest guy in the world. Spoke with everyone that came up to him for as long as they wanted to.

So Marner's going to get a poop ton of assists.

Can we give them a name like the M&M line?

I'm just hoping we can come out with a best case scenario and they turn into a Toews/Kane. That would be faaaaantastic.

Marner has an idea of what to expect and how to move forward, and that’s what he focus’ on

focuses* Why I haven't been hired yet to be an editor on this site is beyond me.

I play at the MC Centre every once in a while. It's such a female dog to find parking because there are so many people just lingering about hoping to see players...

If the line is Matthews, Nylander and Marner one day, then it'll be the MNM line
- TheMussel

Perfect one day hope we'll have a TNT line. Preferably for the 3rd or 4th. Blowing everyone up with hits and creating an easy path for the talent to shine. Boom!


Kinda sad I use to think about this crap in the past the more I really think about it

I'm not so sure that the mindset of him having to bulk-up by preseason is such a great plan. Lindros was bull-on-ice and look what happened to him, sure i guess the weight helps, but if it's not functional strength in the legs and core, it might actually effect his game negatively especially if it's just randomly put on his body.

Like it's already been said, this kid knows he's small, and that didnt stop him in the OHL, it's not like every team has a Zdeno Chara just looking to plaster him.... Honestly the Leafs will have too many weapons, to just hone in on him... I feel if he's gonna over ripen on the knights again this season, and since the only thing that kept him out was his size, he'll focus on strength training most of all, leading his totals to decline from last year, and God only knows what hub-bub that'll cause in TO.

Just let the kid play, he's ready.... Unless the leafs don't intend to attempt to make the playoffs... then whats the point of Matthews playing now anyway????

Leafs development camp should make the circle game active at all times among teammates. It'll teach them to keep their heads up.
