Maple Leafs' playoff hits per 60 up every year since 2020.
One would have to think with Berube and Treliving that's going to continue.

2020: 19.0
2021: 28.0
2022: 36.4
2023: 40.4
2024: 48.9

Brazeau 6'5' 220 lbs forward currently on the Bruins was once a Toronto Marlie.
Skating was his issue. He worked with Underhill and it looks fine now.

Berube is hired as a head coach so his resume as a nhl player is irrelevant. Many great coaches never played one game in the nhl just to make a point. At least he has had a good resume as a coach, unlike when Keefe was hired with no nhl experience, much alike Dubas was hired with no gm experience. Let‘s give him a fair chance to prove one way or another. One thing I’m sure is, even though he’s not an in your face kind of coach, he will not walk back on any criticism he may have on the core players.

IMHO, Marner is the problem, because Marner is totally useless in the playoffs!!
What did the other 4 do. I didn't see much from them either other than 2 good games from Nylander. Marner career wise in the playoffs has been better than the rest. And unlike Nylander can play defence.

Nylander missed 3 games so hard to score when you're not on skates.
Marner had skates on all 7 games and no reports of playing with any injury.

IMHO, it's time to shake things up. Hopefully Marner will remove his no move clause, so the Leafs can trade Marner this off season, and get some value in return, for him!!

Yes, but at least Nylander scores goals in the playoffs, unlike Marner!! Marner just disappears in the playoffs, like "the invisible man."

The Leafs shouldn't care about regular season results, it's playoff results, that matter!!

Nylander 3 goals in 4 games. That's a 62 goal regular season pace and this he did in the playoffs. That was a weak attempt to bash Nylander. Could you tell me in the history of the NHL a player who scores in each and every playoff game he plays in.

Nylander's cap hit this season was under 7 mill.
Marner's cap hit was just under 11 mill.
That's a 4 mill difference so if you're tyring to compare playoff performances between the 2 you gotta factor in Marner has to be 4 mill better just to break even.

I think Marner will play out the season with Toronto not wave his no trade clause , Then he will go to any team HE wants to play for.Not let Toronto send him anywhere

If I were him I'd do the exact same thing. Or better yet. Allow the Leafs to offer him to every team and waive it for the team that offers them the least. Then hit free agency after that.

Who cares now because Nylander's cap hit will be $600k more than Marner's this season and 7 seasons after and soon enough the trade Nylander signs will be popping up at Scotia Bank arena
