Mitch Marner blames media and fans for current narrative in Toronto

"I don't. Today, I felt really good about our bench and really good about our team. Again, you give up the late one, and that one really hurts. That has been a trend, right? We have been in tie games and have given one up late. We iced the puck. We had exhausted people out there. That stings after playing such a hard game. I don't sense frustration in particular after this one. The guys knew the challenge we were up against tonight. They know they played a game that very easily could've gone the other way."

"A lot of people on the outside are trying to do that. It's how it goes for us. We know we're doing the right things. We got to ignore what everyone else says. We know we're a great hockey team. We show up every night. I mean, this last four games that we've had leads, we've played some awesome hockey, some great hockey."
