Mitch Marner blunder results in Sabres shorthanded goal
Maple Leafs franchise winger Mitch Marner is without a doubt one of the best defensive players on the team. We see his body of work game in and game out on the penalty kill. However, there was a play on Saturday that he probably wishes he could have back.
During the second period of the Leafs' game against Buffalo on Hockey Night in Canada, the Leafs found themselves on the power play in a 1-1 game. With the puck on Marner's stick, the hope was that the Leafs would push play into the offensive zone and score the go-ahead goal. Unfortunately, Sabres forward Tage Thompson had other plans.
Marner's blooper reel just got a little worse tonight. That's a tough look.
A lot of fans dislike the drop-back "slingshot" move on the power play. I can't imagine too many people are going to be happy watching it fail miserably here in the form of a Buffalo shorty.
