Insider leaks new details on Nylander's bench altercation with Marner

On Saturday night, the Toronto Maple Leafs suffered a 3-1 loss to the Boston Bruins, placing them at a 3-1 series deficit and on the verge of elimination. However, it was an incident on the Maple Leafs bench that stole the spotlight.

During the second period of the game, cameras captured a heated exchange between William Nylander and Mitch Marner. Following Marner's display of frustration by angrily throwing his gloves, Nylander was seen admonishing him, telling him to "stop f******* crying."





While the team downplayed the incident, NHL Insider Chris Johnston of Sportsnet revealed an intriguing detail. Nylander was wearing a microphone during the altercation, adding an unexpected dimension to the situation.



Johnston speculated whether Nylander was aware of the recording or if his frustration had reached a point where he didn't care. Whether the audio of the exchange will ever be made public remains uncertain, but it adds an intriguing aspect to the incident.
