It is not twisting anything. It is a blunt set of established chronological facts. In May-July 2023, Treliving declared to the media re-signing Matthews and Nylander was a priority. Look up the video. In May 2024, Marner declared he wanted to re-sign in Toronto. Look up the video. In June-July...

Priority wasn't the reason on its own. It was alleged from years before that there had been a grievance that Marner was not treated the same as Matthews & Nylander. The failure to declare him a priority like Treliving had for the other two would add fuel to that alleged grievance. It is a fact...

a) that was sketchy - they didn't seem to have a deal - sounded more like tire kicking trying to find something plausible b) his wife was pregnant, first time parents, both families around to help in Toronto - a move is heck of a thing to undertake under those circumstances (Marner expressed...

No that is not what he said Marner said in May 2024 he loved it in Toronto and wanted to get contract discussions underway. "That'd be a goal. I've expressed my love for this place. Obviously, I've grown up here so we'll start thinking about that (new contract) now and try to figure something...

I don't think Kelly McCrimmon and George McPhee suddenly became stupid hockey people. They did win a Cup recently. McCrimmon cited a number of Marner's team leading playoff stats. He's followed him since Marner was in junior. McCrimmon also basically blamed the Leafs playoff shortcomings on the...

80% of the top 50 UFAs are signed. Most of the top ones gone before the clock struck 12. With the rise in the cap, it was predictable. Looks like they're getting silly fighting over scraps and leftovers now. Saw Steeves signed with the Bruins ...

I think there is some fair reasons to be concerned. If it was something minor and not susceptible to aggravation by an opponent, I think we all would have heard about it. It was an injury bad enough that he could not play at the level he had previously while he tried to play through it. It came...

Isn't that the same CJ who said something very similar to Lebrun-Treliving around June 15, 2024? : https://theleafsnation.com/news/noah-gregor-on-leafs-craig-berube-sometimes-hockey-things-have-to-change Very similar to Treliving-Lebrun as of June 2024 To order it chronologically: As of May...

Yes, 'not responding' is an answer to the question. Ask a lawyer. The whole context of the discussion was about Marner. Treliving (as quoted by Lebrun) "We’ve got to look at every possible way for our team to be better. Mitch controls a lot of this whole thing (with the no-trade). If there’s a...

A) LeBrun spoke with Treliving at length at the combine. For Marner, "All options are on the table" (Trading Marner has to be one of the options) After the conversation, Lebrun speculated that the Leafs would be as active trying to make something happen with a Marner trade as other NHL teams...

Treliving announced he was examining trading Marner a month before they could legally sign a deal with Marner and before they had much time to discuss a contract with his agent due to the firing and hiring of coaches in May 2024 The reports on Vegas were Karlsson, who the Leafs were interested...

What were they going to talk about? Treliving stated to the media he was considering trading Marner a month before July 1, 2024. And apparently, they got close to a deal with Vegas if Friedman is to be believed. Then we know about the Rantanen Canes deal. It has been questionable all along since...

Treliving said. “Mitch controls a lot of this whole thing. If there’s a way to make our team better, we’re going to do it. But we’re certainly not going to make a trade just so we can pound our chest and say, ‘Look, we’re different.'” That set off a media firestorm. Show me a quote where he said...

Around May 5, 2024, after the playoff loss: Athletic: Mitch Marner wants to remain with the Maple Leafs: ‘That’s the goal’ Right after the playoff loss, he states he wants to remain with the Leafs and will start thinking about a contract extension "now" Treliving fires Keefe May 9th Treliving...
