The Toronto Maple Leafs best players, Auston Matthews and Mitch Marner, need to be better. Simple as that.
The Toronto Maple Leafs have not had a good start to their season, and despite some bright spots throughout the lineup, there are clearly some red flags at the top of the Leafs lineup.
William Nylander is having a Hart-Trophy caliber season, and John Tavares is having a strong start to his year, despite being 33 years old.
But the other two members of the Toronto Maple Leafs “core four”, those being the aforementioned Matthews and Marner, need to step it up.
