Marner and Rielly Address Exchange They Had at Practice
During practice yesterday, Morgan Rielly took a high shot during the powerplay practice that hit Mitch Marner and didn't seem to be a fan of it. Marner immediately shot the puck around the boards and the two shared a heated exchange after the play.
After practice, Marner and Rielly addressed the incident, saying that it was nothing and neither was really mad.
"We're not getting into that, are we? There's nothing. I'm joking with him all day," Marner insisted. "Nothing happened. It was fine. We were joking and having fun with each other, that's what we do."
