It's actually just his agent Drew Rosenhaus (who does not have a stellar reputation) saying he believes that Brown's legal team has evidence.

Don't believe a single franking word Rosenhaus says.

Everyone; Why does Marner want more than $11M?

Max; because Nylander that's why

- PatC80


so marner really did turn down 11x7? and marner is actually being petty about $1.6M in bonuses he didn't get???

It is actually time to tell lil marner to gtfo of town.

The Leafs have been persistent in pushing both a 7 yr and 8 yr extension at Marner. The $11 mil per offer was made in June and included the $1.6 mil in B bonuses Toronto wouldn’t pay Marner in his entry level contract. 3 yr ext remains the focus.

Incredibly specific.

Let me try to write them here while on a work computer.

3 incidents.

1. While she was staying at his house (as his trainer), walked into bathroom while she was in there, exposed himself, kissed her without permission.

2. At his house, while she was watching a video of a church sermon on a tablet, he stood behind her, ejaculated on her back. No consent -she didn't know he was doing it until she felt a wet spot on her back. She also has some saved emails in which he talks about the incident - they are not nice.

3. She drives him (and another unnamed football player) back to his house after going to a Miami nightclub. She goes in the house to use the bathroom. He pulls her into a bedroom to talk to her. He proceeds to push her face down on the bed and rape her.

Once again, I'll caution that this is her side of the story, but it's not a pleasant read.

Basically, yeah..

I trust what Bobby Mac says, he never speculates and rarely throws out hypotheticals...

Marner turned down Tavares money because he wants Matthews money..

It's crazy, because Marner is not as good as Tavares or Matthews.

dreger says the buckets of $13M ovver shets are imminent.
- Tumbleweed


Dregers a clown...

I was really hoping for an offer sheet on marner that would fetch four 1st rounders... imagine the possibilities if the leafs had 7 1st round picks over the next 4 years to play with. Think we could squeeze larkin out of Detroit? And maybe Jones out of columbus with a handful of 1sts?

Imagine replacing marner with larkin and Jones and keeping a pick + our own? Too bad that's not happening anymore...

This is crazy... let him sit out a year. If the leafs fail this year (1st round exit or worse) dubas may get roasted for not having marner in the lineup... but imo I think he'll be applauded by shanny and other gms for not just caving to a dummy/greedy gm and player. Duby has to look out for the whole team... not to mention the rest of his career. Would another owner rather hire kyle "the guy who caved and cost his team the ability to be competitive in the future" dubas... or kyle "the steadfast negotiator who puts the team first, and isn't just trying to be friends with the players" dubas?

So marner had 25-30points more because of tavares, but nylander didnt have a similar advantage playing with matthews?

Sign marner - trade nylander.
Bye

Seriously, it's been the same crap for the last 3 months.

Except now It's Marner's fault and not his dad or his agent.

P.S. I've missed you.

Why insist keeping him at this point? How’s Marner’s relationship gonna be like with AM after this?

I mean at least explore what you can get for him? You don’t have to do it if you are not getting a serious offer? At least it would send a signal to MM.

Would Buffalo consider Marner plus for Dhalin?

Seriously though, I had to take a break. Summer hockey news/chat sucks, especially with the whole poop-show that's been bubbling away. Still can't wait for training camp though

brutal.

just read through bobby mac and upper decker's tweets.

sounds like BM is speaking for the ~30 year-old grown up in dubas.

upper decker's tweets sounds like gibberish from 50-year old men looking to spend a ~20 year old's money.

Give him the 11.5 @ 5 and move on. Trade Ceci if need be.

Can't wait for training camp as well!

The missing RFA's around the league makes it weird but none of them are on my team so hey... might give us the few extra points we need!

Just wait for when Kotkaninny asks for $16.5m per year - then we'll be laughing at you (frank)s

For what it's worth, that implies he became a true #1 centre so it's actually good news!

You understand you only have one defenseman under contract for next season, right?

That $11.5 per would leave you with $15-20 million in space (depending on the cap) with only 10 forwards and 1 defenseman under contract.

Nah bud, it just means that he hired Darren Ferris to be his (frank)ing agent, and was also adopted by Paul Marner...

Not quite what I was saying but good try. Applaud dubas for not making a critical general manager mistake by overpaying a greedy little sh!t despite the pressure the leafs gm usually has to work under.

No way to know if having an overpaid marner will push us over the top... but I hope he's willing to risk it. Hope fans understand if the season is a failure that it's not because dubas didn't try to get a reasonable deal done. Dubas said himself last year's negotiations were on himself for not pushing to get a deal done sooner with Willie. You have to believe he wouldn't make that mistake again with marner and has even got quite creative in making the space to get him signed (or match an offer sheet) this off season - a la clarkson trade +
