NHL insider Chris Johnston has come up with a theory regarding Mitch Marner's lunch outing, with Craig Berube.
Marner made headlines today after being spotted having lunch with the head coach Craig Berube.

The unexpected meeting raised eyebrows among fans especially considering the trade rumours surrounding Marner. Some fans questioned why the team would arrange a lunch between him and a coach he may not even play for. This speculation forms the basis of Chris Johnston's theory suggesting that there might be more to this encounter than meets the eye.
"The tin foil hat guy wonders if it was all a part of the plan to be in the public so someone snaps the picture."
Hayes, Noodles, O-Dog and @reporterchris discuss the viral image of Mitch Marner and Craig Berube from last week circulating around the internet.
It's very possible that the organization is subtly signaling to fans that Marner remains a part of their plans. This could be a response to reports linking Barry Trotz and his interest in Marner, while dispelling rumours of any pursuit by the Islanders head coach.
I asked Barry Trotz if he'd be interested in acquiring Mitch Marner, with now some $25 million in cap room.
His response is pretty hilarious and he shrugged it off as «just rumors.»
Could this signal a chance for Berube to lead the core four players on a playoff journey? Hopefully Leafs fans can look forward to the team finding their stride under new leadership.
