Let's hope that Matthews and Marner sign their new contracts before July 1, 2019 because it will give the media one less thing to talk about. Plus I'm sure Dubas won't let the same thing happened with them that went down with Nylander.Media has nothing to talk about. Barring major injury this team will be a playoff team for at least 7 years. Regular season means nothing so the media has to make up stories or exaggerate;
Offseason - Tavares
Training Camp to Dec 1 - Nylander
After Dec 1 - Offersheets of Matthews and Marner
Jan - Goaltending and Sparks
Now - Boo-gate
End of the month to Feb - Trade Deadline
Then playoffs
If the leafs don’t win the cup then it will shift back to offer sheets (Matthews and Marner). During that it will be the loss of Gardiner and the mention of Marleaus deal. Then Zaitsevs deal.
After they get signed it will be Babcock on the hot seat for not winning a cup with this talented team.
Then it will be about expansion etc.
They will find something to complain about.
I always thought Shanahan held Kessel responsible for salute gate, because didn't he tell Phaneuf to let all the players know they were not going to salute the fans when they won that game after the 9-2 loss.Imagine if that team used their anger against the opposition instead of the paying customers ? Wow what a concept. Personally looking back it was the beginning of the end for Phil and Djon. Thanks Boys.

You hit it out of the park.
About 50 drunk idiots boo an NHL player and apparently the natural conclusion is to be mad at the other 20,000 people who didn't boo. These are the moments when you remember these guys live in a freaking bubble.
I was there on Monday night and to be honest I didn't even notice it. But I was up in a box and talking so wasn't exactly paying close attention.
Like you and the players I didn't hear much either.I was there on Monday night and to be honest I didn't even notice it. But I was up in a box and talking so wasn't exactly paying close attention.

ExactlyWell, it was pretty obvious on the TV broadcast
