Kelly Hrudey torches Mitch Marner after terrible performance in Game 4

After the Leafs dropped another uninspired game to the Boston Bruins, Kelly Rhudey and the Sportsnet Panel went off on Mitch Marner's performance and lack of production.

The Leafs are on the precipice of repeating their age-old pattern of losing in the first round of the Stanley Cup playoffs. While they had some brief success last year, beating Tampa Bay in the first round, they have failed to have any meaningful playoff improvements in nearly two decades. However, on paper, the Leafs should be improving, especially with the talent they have up front. However, stars like Mitch Marner have failed to step up when the bright lights are shining their brightest.

Now, Kelly Rhudey and the Sportsnet Panel have taken Mitch Marner over the coals in their recent intermission. Here is what he had to say.


Rhudey didn't stop there. He also mentioned the instance on the bench when Marner, Matthews, and William Nylander all got into a spat which led to Marner throwing his gloves down in a fit.



Despite the ridicule, Marner was able to get his first goal of the post-season in the third period, however, that wasn't likely enough to clear him of his wrongdoings and lack of energy throughout the game.


The Leafs will look to turn it around in what could be their final game of the year in Boston on Tuesday night.
