Mitch Marner must go, John Tavares can stay, reader poll results say
Article content You can stay, John Tavares, but only under certain conditions. Article content Article content And Morgan Rielly, if you wouldn't mind considering waiving your no-move clause in the event that Maple Leafs general manager Brad Treliving asks you to do so. Article content The results of our off-season Leafs poll are in. Article content In having your say following another disappointing end to a Leafs season — this time against the Florida Panthers in Game 7 of the second round of the Stanley Cup playoffs — you think the Leafs and Marner should go their separate ways, Tavares should be retained on a team-friendly contract and Rielly should think about forgoing the final five years on his contract. Article content Article content Change during the summer would include trying to sign impending free agents Sam Bennett and Brad Marchand, though Nikolaj Ehlers would also catch your interest when the market opens on July 1. Article content As for a couple of players who built their respective National Hockey League careers on achieving big-time success with the Chicago Blackhawks, Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane, you would take a pass. Article content We thank you for taking the time to participate. Here are the full results: Article content He brought the team back to a level of respect that was required. (20.44%, 131 votes) Great strides were made, but not enough. (31.05%, 199 votes) He was too stubborn with his allegiance to the core. (33.39%, 214 votes) Glad it's done. He had run his course. (15.12%, 97 votes) Article content Article content Article content Loved it. The team's north-south system is the way to go. (31.78%, 177 votes) Steps were made, but the same result in the playoffs was hard to take. (61.22%, 341 votes) Not much of a difference in points from Sheldon Keefe. Leafs need to get back to more offence next season. (7%, 39 votes) Article content Matt Duchene (16.85%, 91 votes) Brad Marchand (38.89%, 210 votes) Patrick Kane (6.48%, 35 votes) Nikolaj Ehlers (37.78%, 204 votes)

North Bay, Ont., university honours Canadian curling icon Jennifer Jones
Canadian curling legend Jennifer Jones received an honourary degree at a Tuesday morning graduation ceremony at Nipissing University in North Bay. Canadian curling legend Jennifer Jones received an honourary degree at a Tuesday morning graduation ceremony at Nipissing University in North Bay. Widely recognized as the greatest female skip in Canadian history, Jones won a gold medal at the 2014 Olympics in Sochi. She was the first -- and only -- female skip to go through the Olympic games undefeated. She also won six national titles and two world championships. One of those world championship victories came in 2018 in North Bay. Jennifer Jones degree Canadian curling legend Jennifer Jones received an honourary degree at a Tuesday morning graduation ceremony at Nipissing University in North Bay. (Eric Taschner/CTV News) 'When I came to North Bay, the city blew me away with their hospitality,' Jones told reporters before the ceremony. 'It was a highlight of my very long curling career and I always say it's on par with the Olympics and that's because of North Bay.' The university presented her with an honourary doctorate in education. Jones calls the moment 'humbling.' 'I'm very excited to be back and just to receive this honour from the university,' she said. 'To be a part of this community and their legacy is very humbling.' In 2019, TSN named Jones as the greatest Canadian curler in history, following a poll of broadcasters, reporters and top curlers. Earned law degree In addition to her curling success, Jones has had a dynamic and multifaceted career beyond sport. She earned her law degree and practised law before shifting her focus to motivational speaking and television broadcasting. In a brief speech to the graduates, Jones told them to never give up and to enjoy the moment, reminding them they can achieve anything if they set their minds to it. She recalled her dream of wanting to win one Canadian championship and that it would have 'been the most miraculous thing' in her life. Jones told the graduates about sitting down with sports psychologist Cal Botterill, who listened to her explain that she was shy and lacked the confidence to reach her dreams.

(Eric Taschner/CTV News) 'He looked at me straight in the eyes -- and it's a message that I want you to remember on this day -- he said, 'Why not you?'' Jones, who retired from curling last year, said it's important to leave a lasting legacy for the 'future generation.' 'To believe that we had even the smallest of impact to help curling grow in a city that did so much for us in like North Bay,' she said. 'Hopefully, we'll see some future stars come out of the curling program here.' The university is also presenting two others with honourary degrees this week: Juno award-winning singer-songwriter William Prince from Peguis First Nation and Janine Lafrenière, who has dedicated her career to supporting survivors of gender-based violence.
