[Johnston] Brad Treliving on how he manages all of the Mitch Marner rumours: “I’d caution us to not pay too much attention to some of the noise. We can’t react to all of the noise. … Mitch knows how I feel about him as a player.”

I’d be concerned if he listened to r/leafs

Is someone going to spin this into a signal that he’s about to be traded?
He didn’t say he feels good about him as a player at least.
He never said he’s commited to working out a deal…
He apparently *shopped* Willy and throughout the process was still was very clear he’s been working out a deal.
The vibes definitely point to he’s trying to trade Marner.
he did not sound like a GM that wanted to extend or keep Mitch as a top priority. Not even close.
He’s right. Whatever they end up doing they can’t let the “noise” from the media or fans affect them. The FO has all the facts, they know what they’re trying to do. They need to just work and forget about what anybody else is saying.
Kypreos on the radio said today that Berube loves Marner, is excited to coach him, and doesn’t want him traded.
I think they are trying to trade Marner, but I don’t think they’ll be able to. The teams that have the pieces and/or cap space to give up, he wont go to, and the teams he’ll waive for, probably want to get him for their crappy contracts and a mediocre prospect.
Everyone get ready for Marner to stay and be good again. And we’ll see what happens around January.
If you don’t trade him Brad then WE WILL LOSE AND LOSE HIM FOR NOTHING!!!!! TRADE HIM!
This subreddits 5 year long hatred of Marner is so weird
Translation My puppet master Shanhan said I can’t trade Marner
“And I know how he feels about his team mates…I got him to make me a list…”
“We can’t react to all the noise” is a great way to tell the media to back the hell off and let them do their jobs.
the head shambles are in the water in the gta
This kinda came off as Brad slow jerking Mitch’s ego in the media
TLDR:
*”It ain’t that I’m too big to listen to the rumors,*
*it’s just that I’m too damm big to pay attention to ’em that’s the difference”*
Run it back.

I can see Marner hoping for one last hurrah with the Leafs and making a real push in the playoffs and maybe that will change managements mind. I don’t think he actually wants to go despite all the shit he gets.
I think we can all agree Mitch is a great player, but it’s best for the player and the team to move on.
