The 2024 Playoffs were a huge disappointment for the Leafs. After an impressive regular season, the team was seen as a top contender in the Eastern Conference. However, they struggled, leading to a heated moment between star players Nylander and Marner.
At the time, no one knew exactly what Nylander said, but there was speculation that he told Marner to "stop crying" and that this wasn't junior hockey anymore. Now, months later, a new behind-the-scenes clip has confirmed what really happened.
In a promotional video for an Amazon documentary series, a clip of the argument is shown, and audio from a microphone reveals Nylander telling Marner, "Shoot it, stop crying, bro," during a tense moment in their series against the Boston Bruins.
Nylander was mic'd up for the game as part of the series, offering a unique behind-the-scenes look at the Leafs' struggles.
Fans will get to see more from Nylander and other NHL stars like Connor McDavid, Quinn Hughes, Gabriel Landeskog, and Jeremy Swayman in the upcoming season.
This clip ends months of speculation, but it could spark new questions for Nylander and Marner from the media. We'll keep following the story as more unfolds from this documentary.
