Toronto Maple Leafs forward Mitch Marner was predictably furious after the Florida Panthers took a commanding 3-0 lead midway through the second period of Game 7.

After a scoreless first period, Seth Jones, Anton Lundell and Jonah Gadjovich got on the board for the Panthers. Gadjovich’s goal may have been the breaking point for Marner and company, and the Leafs’ star winger appeared to mouth ‘wake the f— up’ at the bench in frustration.

Marner, for what it’s worth, registered one shot through the opening two periods as the Maple Leafs’ stars produced a listless effort through forty minutes for the second consecutive home game. The 28-year-old submitted the worst game of his career during a 6-1 loss in Game 5 and it’s shaping up to be another brutal loss for Marner and the Maple Leafs, in what could be the winger’s final home game with the club. Marner is a pending unrestricted free agent at the end of the year.

“It’s what you wanna play for,” Marner said following a Game 6 victory on Friday. “Especially when you’re going down 3-2 into an away building, you wanna bring your best and I thought we did.  The job’s only gonna get harder, so can’t be satisfied.  Gotta take care of yourself, take the rest you need and be ready for a hard game.”

At the end of the second period, the Leafs were booed off the ice by the Scotiabank Arena crowd. Marner and Auston Matthews have routinely failed to provide the offensive impact expected of them throughout the series, and this may be the enduring image of his tenure with the club. He has recorded a goal and five points in the second-round series at the time of this filing.

Marner finished the regular season with a career-best 102 points, but it all may be moot as the Leafs once again appear poised to fall short of the conference finals once again.
