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.
«Just try to ignore it...We're just trying to do our job out there and go out and put together a full 60. And, you know, we got a good practice today, a good video session. We've got to get to work tomorrow.»
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.
