Mitch Marner slams media before returning from injury

In an interaction with the media last week, Mitch Marner expressed his displeasure with the ongoing discussions surrounding his injury and the inquiries directed at him and his teammates by the media.

Marner's remarks were influenced by his injury sustained in early March, when he resumed with the Toronto Maple Leafs. In the interview, Marner said (via The Hockey News):

"Just like I spoke on before, I mean, I know I've said a lot of times, you guys are not kind to some people sometimes. And stuff gets said about a lot of people during tough stretches or tough moments.

"And obviously, that doesn't define one person. And what Ilya has done from coming back from the start of the season and just really taking us back into a great position, being the backbone of this team. It's been phenomenal and amazing to see."

Mitch Marner has racked up 78 points through 25 goals and 53 assists in 64 games this season.
