NHL analyst Nick Alberga responded to Mitch Marner’s recent comments about Toronto fans. Marner was traded to Vegas in July after nine seasons in Toronto. After his departure, Marner said that his family faced safety issues and received death threats after Toronto lost to the Florida Panthers in the second round.On "The Sheet with Jeff Marek," Alberga discussed the long history between Marner and Leafs fans. He said Marner’s contract talks in 2019 created tension, with the player's camp threatening to sign an offer sheet with another team."I think everything you just mentioned stems back to the contract negotiations," Alberga said on Wednesday. "Took every penny, him and his agent, threatened to go play in a different country, in a different league. Threatened to go sign an offer sheet with the Columbus Blue Jackets, like it was thing after thing."According to Alberga, fans never forgot how those negotiations played out. He also questioned Marner’s intentions behind staying in Toronto. Alberga added that Marner had a no-movement clause and chose to remain."The last couple years, he pretty much controlled everything with the no movement clause," Alberga said. "If you hated it so much, Mitch, why did you stay in Toronto?"Mitch Marner's comments on his "address leak" and "threats"After departing the Maple Leafs, Mitch Marner said his address had been leaked, and death threats had been made against him and his family. He claimed that the situation had become so out of control that he had to hire private security for his home for two weeks."I guess my wife's father called me and goes I just want to let you know we've got people sending us screenshots of a guy posting your address online," Marner said on Aug. 28, via TSN."It’s a little tough, obviously. The market’s very passionate, but when your family’s safety comes into question, especially having a new son, I don’t think it’s acceptable."Marner had strong numbers last season. He led the Leafs with 102 points in the regular season and scored 13 points in 13 playoff games.
