Auston Matthews is sick of answering questions about Mitch Marner

The 2025-26 season hasn't even started yet, and Auston Matthews is already just about fed up with answering reporters questions about his former teammate Mitch Marner.

During a reporter scrum on Monday, the Maple Leafs captain gave media members a deadline on the Marner questions.

The question Matthews was answering was about his pregame routine to stay out on the ice as late as possible, and whether he was going to ask someone new to join him, as he used to be accompanied by Marner. Matthews responded with, "we'll see," and then gave the reporter the two week deadline.
