Can’t believe this is your Saturday night panel.

So bad.

So the normal panel minus Elliot?

You don’t have to fight just because you wear the C.

I don’t want any of our players being paid over 3M to fight.

It’s stupidity.

A captain’s priority: do whatever it takes to motivate the team

Second concern: point production and defence

A captain has to lead a team, not just worry about themselves

And as much as I like JT I question him as a captain in a place like Toronto. Maybe in a smaller market he’d be fine, but that willingness to essentially do what Gio just did is missing and is necessary in Toronto
- Dozzer

All players should have each others back. Not just grab somebody in a scrum like JT & Bo only do. Both also in after game interviews are so pathetic without any fire in their speak.

Yeah it’s brutal.

Elliot at least gives us rumours.

But this is god awful.

No personality. All Bieksa has is his hair.

I’m not saying he fails there, but on the ice he does.

Btw if you’re going to continue just trying to (frank) with others I’ll start (frank)ing with you. Cheers.

If you caught the leafs against Boston you’d probably see why I’m saying this better.

Oh boy.

I’m sorry but you or I don’t know poop about a captain.

But fighting because you are a captain is silly.

You are reaching.

AM is the most legal shooter in the league. He should have a better balanced roster around him. Marner if no NMC would be my goner but Willy is too convenient to be it.

Idk & not being a Leaf hater but something has to change.

That's the only thing he's good at. I don't mind the offseason video's he does with some players in their hometowns, either.

But he should never have a platform to give his opinions, because they're terrible.

Bam! This team has been missing this for years! This is what wins playoffs! That said, we can’t expect the oldest guy in the league to be the one doing it. But good on em.

edmonton should be the canary in the coal mine🤦🏿‍♂️

Go away.

Wait until the Nucks PDO crashes. You’ll be wanting changes for the nucks.

The best part about the Gio fight was when Joshua told the linesmen "no" when they were going to intervene, then he got hit four seconds later by a right that would have dropped 90% of the league.

For me a captain sets a high standard & leads a team. Nothing is good enough if the crest isn’t why they play. Points mean squat & as much as I hate the Bruins & even VGK both teams play team 200’ hockey & all that comes with that or you aren’t wanted.

I just want some personality.

TNT is great.

At the end of the day we all have opinions and they aren’t right or wrong.

But it’s TV and it’s entertainment.

Its sucks, but if it was possible, I agree. Marner is the guy I'd trade out.

On top of him being the guy that would get the biggest return in a trade, he already makes more on his current deal than he should make on his next deal.

Now, all that could change if Marner decides he wants to be an excellent teammate and take less to help the team, seeing as how he got overpaid by millions on his last deal.
