C Mitchell Marner - London Knights, OHL (2015 Draft)

[Wintersun]

What you're seeing is the Marner that we've had for the past 15+ games. Absolutely phenomenal.

Yeah, I knew he was scoring hat tricks almost every game. So I decided to see for myself if he was the real deal. He is.

 

[1972]

I seriously question anyone who think Crouse is in the same breath as Marner or Strome as a prospect, I see it quite often.

Yeah, those rankings with Crouse at 6 are kind of crazy talk IMO. Like the guy, but he isn't top 10 material this year. Even Ritchie, who IMO is better, almost didn't crack the top 10 last year.

There's the hatrick on the feed from Domi on the PP. 4th hatrick of the year. 7G, 3A in 2 games.

 

[Plastic Joseph]

Canada invite?

 

[David McConnor]

The term 'hat trick' is now obsolete. They are now known as marners.

 

[Get North]

5 points tonight, wow.

 

[Icebreakers]

Whens the last time 3 draft eligible players from the CHL end up with 2ppg+.

Kane, and Garner were both draft eligible.and Tavares was 16 in 06-07 when they all had 2ppg.

Not sure when before

Is that a shot at Strome? Strome has put up 2pts/gm since McDavid went down. I've only seen Strome play a few times. Marner only a few more than that. I prefer Marner, but I don't think it's necessary to attack Strome in support.

No slight at all to Strome. Many people have stated Marner doesn't do it on his own and benefits from who he's playing with..that's total BS. Marner makes everyone he plays with better. That is an impact player. If anything Marner's teammates are benefiting from playing with Marner..not the other way around.

Gotcha! Thanks for clarifying. That makes much more sense, and I totally agree. If the draft were held today and my team had the third pick, Marner would be my guy.

It's between him and Strome for the one draft eligible player they invite to camp every year that they give no actual shot of making the team.

if u watched the subway series game they will give that spot to Crouse. He got pk and bumped up in third period. I believe they are looking for size over skill.

Gold, David McConnor.

Marner is now a serious challenger to Hanifin, and I don't want to be the one to say what could happen if he keeps this pace up.

 

[Wintersun]

Two beautiful assists so far tonight against Kingston.

Has been much more dominant than Crouse from what I've seen. Can't see why Crouse is ahead of him in half the rankings at this point...

I find myself liking him more than Drouin... Am I crazy?

 

[FLYguy3911]

Saw both assists tonight. Unreal. That first one was great. Hard to say he's better than Drouin for me, but he's a great prospect. Top 5 pretty easily for me.

I can't see why Crouse is rated as high as he is. Offensive game seems to be lacking

He's my darkhorse to be picked in the top 5.

I like him. Really solid player.

1 more year of Jr IMO and he will be ready for the show!

 

[IPreferPi]

Strong candidate for the Yotes first rounder this year, especially given his innate chemistry with Domi and Dvorak.

 

[gsharpe]

I haven't logged in in a while and don't post often but I just wanted to say that this was an excellently written article. I don't get to watch these prospects but I feel I have a good understanding of why he wasn't ranked super high early (size) and why he is a quick riser (growth and production).

I'd like some quotes from nhl scouts but I don't know if that's possible .

 

[OttMorrow]

Who do you think is better. Fabrri or Marner?

 

[Wintersun]

Who do you think is better. Fabrri or Marner?

I think Marner is better by a decent margin but that's just me, also a big fabbri fan.

 

[Future]

Who do you think is better. Fabrri or Marner?

Fabbri is more competitive and better defensively. But I'd say Marner is much more talented which is saying something because Fabbri is a very skilled player.

While I think Fabbri will be a very good player, I think Marner could be something special.
