Mitch Marner Responds to Toronto Maple Leafs Fans After Being Booed Two Games in a Row
Toronto Maple Leafs fans have not been happy with the team's effort as of late and that extends to superstar forward Mitch Marner who is in a bit of a slump.
Mitch Marner is leading the Toronto Maple Leafs in points this season as he has amassed 60 points in just 45 games.
He is on pace for the best season of his career, although fans don't care right now because the team is in the midst of a three-game losing streak.
Mitch Marner on Toronto Maple Leafs fans
In fact, during this losing streak, Maple Leafs fans have booed the team off of home ice on two separate occasions.
Overall, this has been pretty striking to see, and players like Mitch Marner are being asked about the ordeal.
While speaking to reporters, Marner was actually quite dismissive of the fans, noting that the team has to ignore it and focus on the games.
Tonight, the Maple Leafs are playing against the New Jersey Devils who are one of the better teams in the league.
It is Sheldon Keefe's return to Toronto and after two periods, the Maple Leafs are losing by a score of 2-1.
If they don't get themselves together here, they are going to end up getting booed all over again.
Hopefully, players like Mitch Marner can dig deep and get themselves out of a hole before it is too late.
