🕵️♂️ Transcript:
when we all talked about that Tampa game for three weeks and then the SEC and then the second night was the one in Columbus where they went down there and got absolutely smoked 6’2 or 61 yeah it wasn’t good but uh yeah it’s like you look at the schedule for December it’s just it’s it just doesn’t stop so interesting to see how they handle it I’m interesting to hear uh Craig buuy on Morgan Riley why did you pick this clip he got asked about him and he gave a sort of you know a synopsis of what he’s been like this year for them so I just thought it be good point to talk about Riley so play I think he’s played really well for us I think you know he’s taken some of the I think you know he’s used to really getting up in the play and he still does and he’s I think he’s picking his spots really well with that and um uh defending well um you know he’s he’s done a good job for us in my opinion interesting that he mentioned about him getting up in the play do you think he asked him when he took over to not do it as much probably yeah I imagine so like because they started him with tanv so maybe they were thinking I don’t know maybe play a more of a defensive role but to me like when he said that about his decision making that when Morgan Riley is at his best his the decision making could be his most his best sort of attribute in terms of when to jump up when not to when not to go using his feet like he’s really good at but like what would you how would you assess his season this year you know it’s it’s not like I would say give him the Jimmy VC treatment and say vanilla because it’s just expectations are high for him right so for me it’s not that he’s been bad and I’ve said this about other good players in the past when they’ve struggled but it’s the absence of great that makes it noteworthy he makes a lot of money to be there Number One D and he’s hasn’t made a ton of mistakes he’s been fine totally fine but just we haven’t seen that top end where he’s great for them and a Difference Maker and it was more noticeable when he was in years past because everybody was so much worse than him you think that’s what it was he just stood out as the best of and now there’s so much depth and he doesn’t have to over push or gamble MH and now it’s kind of pushed pushed him down in terms of standing out so much and now he’s one of he’s not the guy yeah he’s one of guys so who’s who he’s one of yeah who’s the most valuable defenseman in the first 20 games Chris tanv when was the last time you ever picked another defenseman more valuable than Morgan Riley the last 10 years yeah it’s great question yeah it’s not really happened has it muzin had a little run there no never never he had he had to have been your number one guy or else the team was struggling MH he difference now sorry he’s just down almost two minutes per game this year from last year yeah he’s down for two minutes I don’t hate that neither do I he’s going to end up with 50 points right 45 50 points which is fine yeah but ites it’s doesn’t need to be 70 right now doesn’t need to be the guy with all the weight on his shoulders yeah so Leaf’s very good quarter of his season right yes and Morgan can’t make enough noise to get on Team Canada like if I would have told you the Leafs would have been at the top of the Atlantic after the quarter Mark and I told you that Morgan Riley was not going to be one of six seven Canadians on Team Canada would you said I don’t know he’d almost have to be wouldn’t he I feel like your point is less about Morgan Riley and how he’s played this year and more about in the past you feel like he was overvalued overused overrated even over needed yeah and he felt it over leaned on over leaned on over is he is he a Norris kind of guy well he’s a good defenseman but he’s and he might one day have a career year where he could maybe get some votes for the Norris but he’s not Norris material and now he’s amongst a group with some good depth and we’ll see how how good as the season progresses but he’s not needed and counted on every game to do what he thought he needed to do in years past so how has that affected the way he’s played in your opinion has he played the same level he’s been at in the past and it’s just less noticeable it’s less noticeable but he’s been basically the same player for you um no he’s he’s not as flashy he he doesn’t stand out as much yeah and they’re winning this this will go this will go a lot farther for the Toronto Maple Leafs this Morgan Riley than the one that we’ve seen in the past yeah so if you’re if we’re talking about what’s best for the team then this is the Morgan Riley I want if we want to talk about how does Morgan looked like he’s worth seven and a half million every night now you’re kind of pushing the envelope on what he’s capable of doing or not capable of doing he was so good against Tampa in the series they W like that he was their MVP I mean he that was a tremendous run for him so you know I do hope that he has more flashes of that not just he’s got He’s got potential to get to those that that spot again maybe we’ll see how matchups go too because barui now knows that one of his one of the best shut down pairs in the league is tan of in McKay well that should open Morgan for more of the top end stuff right we’ll see yeah now I wonder you know in the past we’ve talked about the Leafs adding a dman yeah you know interesting to see who Morgan plays with in playoffs his D partner plan for Nashville you think so oh that’s your Shen is still coming if you look behind you that Jersey that has a two on it you know I don’t mind is I I think Morgan is is doing everything he’s supposed to right now and that’s help his team win and ites it may come at a cost of not standing out as much as maybe he’d like to being flashy enough to make a team Canada but at this point of his career doesn’t care about Team Canada compared to what’s at stake for the Toronto Maple Leafs this guy to me is like he’s the perfect Leaf I mean do you ever hear him complain you know they’re going to five forwards they go to oel or they go to rasma sandine or whoever it is on the power play never once you see him gripe or pout or drag his lip or bad body language like he just plays I I appreciate that yeah um and I never really thought he was a team Canada canidate yeah it was ambitious thought they got Canada’s got a lot of good defenseman boys a lot of good defenseman a tough nut to crack it is that blue line anyways we should go for a verse okay when we come back two times Stanley Cup champion not just one two Christopher steeg M will join us more real KIPP and borne after the break the Toronto Maple Leafs may be taking a new approach to salary management which could directly impact Mitch marner’s contract negotiations during Kyle DUIs tenure as general manager the team didn’t hesitate to spend heavily and this trend began with a six-year extension signed by Marner in 2019 at the time marner’s $10.9 million annual cap hit set the market for Superstar Wingers surpassing comparable players like Miko Ronan of the Colorado Avalanche who signed a 6-year deal with a $9.25 million annual cap hit now however times seem to be changing tsn’s Pier LeBron recently reported that the Maple Leafs have implemented an internal salary cap aiming to ensure no player earns more than Captain Austin Matthews who signed a 4-year extension worth $13.25 million per season in August 2023 the team’s primary concern revolves around marner’s agent Darren Ferris who according to LeBron might push for a percentage of the total salary cap instead of a amount this could result in marner’s cap hit exceeding Matthew’s $13.25 million conflicting with a Leaf’s new Financial strategy Ferris is known for driving negotiations to the Limit often taking his clients to free agency this raises fears that discussions between Marner and the Leafs could drag on until July 1st giving Marner and his Camp all the leverage in negotiations another complicating factor is the rising market LeBron noted that Miko Ronin believes he could secure $14 million per season as a free agent this Sparks the question could Marner demand even more and would Ferris take that gamble knowing the Leafs might opt to move on and sign another player Marner has made it clear on multiple occasions that Toronto is where he wants to be as a local player with deep ties to the city he’s expressed his desire to spend his entire career wearing the blue and white of the leaves however staying with the team may require him to accept less than market value especially if the front office remains committed to its new salary structure such a sacrifice could be vital for for the team’s Collective success and to avoid Financial issues that have plagued the recent past while negotiations are still in the early stages it’s evident that marner’s future with the Leafs is at stake Maple Leafs fans may need to prepare for the possibility of significant changes but they can also trust in the players commitment to the city and the franchise to find a compromise the Maple Leaf’s decision to implement an internal salary cap reflects a broader shift in their team building philosophy after years of prioritizing top-end Talent with Hefty contracts the organization appeared determined to strike a balance between Superstar contracts and depth throughout the roster this strategy aims to avoid the pitfalls of past Seasons where a lack of financial flexibility often left the team vulnerable in critical playoff moments for Mitch Marner this shift creates a unique Challenge on one hand his value to the Leafs is undeniable a consistent top scorer and Elite playmaker Marner has been instrumental in driving the team’s offense on the other hand his ability to command a salary that rivals or exceeds Austin Matthews could put the Leafs in a difficult position especially with a potential need to strengthen other areas of the roster as the 2023 to 24 season progresses the Leafs must weigh the potential consequences of sticking to their cap philosophy losing a homegrown Talent like Marner would undoubtedly sting for fans and the organization alike however allowing one player to dictate financial terms beyond the team structure could hinder long-term success and force painful sacrifices elsewhere adding to the complexity is the looming free agency of William nander if the Leafs are to stick to their internal salary cap they may also face challenges in retaining neander who could command a significant raise balancing contracts for both Marner and neander within the new framework could prove to be the ultimate test for Toronto’s management team another Factor at play is the team’s ultimate goal winning the Stanley Cup while star players like Marner and Matthews are crucial history has shown that depth and balanced rosters often Prevail in the postseason if the Leafs fail to manage their finances effectively they risk falling short of building a championship caliber team even with Elite Talent for Marner the decision to stay with the Leafs might come down to more than just dollars his connection to the city the fans and his teammates could be deciding factors if he prioritizes Legacy and loyalty over maximizing earnings there’s a strong possibility that he’ll work with a team to find a deal that benefits both parties negotiations will also test Darren Ferris known for his Hardline tactics in securing lucrative deals for his clients while pushing for top dollar is a expected Ferris may need to weigh the risks of alienating the Leaf’s management and fan base a prolonged stalemate could damage marner’s relationship with the team
