It's well known by now that Maple Leafs star Mitch Marner isn't easy to deal with, and now an insider has revealed details on his relationship with Sheldon Keefe. Sheldon Keefe was let go by the Maple Leafs after yet another playoff disappointment in 2024, and many see that as the right move for Toronto. While Keefe didn't get the best out of the team, he was also not put in the best position, with insider Elliotte Friedman detailing the tumultuous relationship between Keefe and star winger Mitch Marner. <q>Elliotte Friedman says Sheldon Keefe was extremely careful about how he treated Marner because of how sensitive Marner is. If that's the case, I don't know how Marner thinks he will put up with the pressure of another season in Toronto. I'm so sick of this situation.</q> <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/berezin_goal/status/1801004625409036307'> </a></blockquote></div> If true, this plays right into other stories of Mitch Marner's attitude playing for his hometown Maple Leafs, something that likely won't be tolerated by new coach Craig Berube. Whether or not he'll put up with that or push for a Marner trade is yet to be seen, but regardless, unless Marner's reported attitude issues get fixed, it's safe to say that he'll have to find a new home, this summer or next.
