00:00Did you see the golden muzzy last night giving Mitch Marner the business during the game

00:09when he was on the bench crying and then I tweeted him he just scored the game winner

00:15in overtime and the golden muzzy giving the just absolute high heat to the Toronto Leaf

00:25you know because he's in Toronto and they're very critical of the Leafs up there every

00:30player gets just just butchered by the media they just crucify these guys meanwhile the

00:36guy scores the biggest goal of his life yeah I think that he's kind of the guy that they've

00:44taken like center hit on now in Toronto like yeah because I think he's a is he a free agent

00:51after next year I believe summer of 25 that's right so I think he's after this season or

00:58maybe one more season he's got so he's gonna be up for some money and he hasn't really

01:03played great over the last year year and a half but he played pretty well last night

01:09in this Canada overtime win over Sweden I thought he was noticeable on a few things

01:14he was really noticeable on the game-winning goal in overtime

01:25he's looking to see who's got some help Morris he went to the bench

01:29Crosby delayed and sets up Marner full stride into the zone Mitch Marner scores!

01:34Mitch Marner! An overtime winner for Team Canada!

01:44I actually think Pangor does a better job as an analyst to be honest with you I think he's

01:50really solid but there you go Marner with the winner it was a great game I mean I don't know

01:56how many times we can say it and how many different ways he is a free agent this summer by the way

02:02after this season Marner's of unrestricted free agent I'll take him in Pittsburgh if they don't

02:07hey Dubas is there he knows Marner from his Toronto days so start rebuilding the

02:14Penguins with double M that would be a great guy to do it with to be honest with you I believe in

02:21him you know what the problem is is that playing in Toronto is the pressure is so bad it is so

02:27awful that who would want to be in that powder keg I'd rather yeah excuse me play in Pittsburgh

02:32to be honest with you all right you can play on Long Island too if he wants you come to the

02:38horse track why would anybody want to pay that pay the taxes in the housing on Long Island

02:44why the hell would Marner want to be in Long Island? Who wants to deal with that traffic?

02:47And all that horse cable everywhere everywhere you walk there's horse cable horse track John

02:55Cooper said after the game Sidney Crosby will go down as the greatest player ever for Canada I had

03:01no idea about this stat until I saw it last night after the game Canada has won 26 straight games

03:09across all competitions when Crosby is in the lineup dating back to the 2010 Olympics now this

03:17is a lot of Olympics and World Cups and other things you heard Crosby yesterday we played him

03:22or two days ago it's been a while since he's played for Canada but they have now won 26 times

03:28when he's been on the ice ridiculous. That ends on Saturday by the way.

03:34Well there's no denying his brilliance one of the things I thought that was cool was did you

03:45see when Lemieux did the starting lineups in the Canadian locker room and he said Sid the Kid they

03:50still call him that like the guy's an old man now and they still call him Sid the Kid.
