Nice drive to the net in OT that set up the winner. The Leafs need to be doing much more of this.

This guy has never shown any emotion or intensity whatsoever throughout his career. Watch him with the media, he's the most neutral guy ever. He just doesn't have the competitive spirit that most captains usually have.
I agree and the wise move would be to move the C to someone else.

A superstar player decides he wants to come play for you and you give up no assets to get him. How many teams are going to say ‘no’?

I agree. I’d have traded Marner before his NMC kicked in. By that time they should’ve known what he was. Most of us did. Also agree they should’ve fired Keefe. That was nonsensical to me.

Not dealing Marner was a huge mistake.

The Leafs at least make the playoffs every year.
Worst Captain ever? Kyle Okposo, former Capt. Of the rudderless Sabres years says hi.

2 career playoffs series wins in a 15 season career at 11M per year. Never been close to winning a cup.If this is not the worst price per performance ratio ever, I don't know what is. I looked up the definition of loser in Merriam-Webster and it had 2 words. John Tavares.
And let me guess... one of the synonyms had 3 words? The Winter Soldier?!

And who do you replace him with?

Matthews? If he's the 'de-facto' leader outside of Tavares,the team is still f***ed. "He's the best player on the team!" So? Being a star scoring center doesn't make you a leader.

Marner? Lol.

Nylander? Questioned all the time about his dedication and work ethic.

Reilly? Maybe.

The captain should have been Muzzin in all honesty. But then he got destroyed and that was that.
