Thank god Marner is with JT. Line won't be embarrassed defensively and has good potential on offense. If Cirelli get matched up against Matthews, Marner will get to eat. If they are matched up against Marner, Matthews gets to eat. End of the day the Toronto Maple Leafs get to eat and hopefully move on to round two.

Marner is great defensively, but he's struggled to create offense any closer than 55' from the goalie. Outside of the 3rd goal in a 7-3 blow out. Might be a good idea to stack Nylander, Tavares, Marner on a line...Nylanders speed pushes Tampas defense back.

Appreciate you discussing the stats. Are these stats you posted individual measuremments?
Looking at Natural Hat trick, Marner ranks low in all these individual stats (posted below), while elite players on other team's rank high in these categories. Is there a reason why Marner ranks so low in these stats but other of the leagues best are high?

No but I am trying to clean up my language in case God is listening.

Wow, imagine complaining about him of all people.
He's pot committed at this point I think but who knows.
I hope Marner puts on a performance tonight that has him reconsidering his views.

LMAO. Not only pot committed, seems like he's been all in for years now. I think we'd all love nothing more than to see Marner put on a show tonight, here's hoping!
GLG!!

You hope? Alot of confidence that you have. 10 elimination games and he's been invisible, in fact the oppositions gwg have come from bad plays by Marner. But hey... Apparently I'm committed to "thinking" he's not been good enough. It's not because the stats and highlights show he's been incredibly ineffective in important games.
..... Your two posts are contradicting themselves... You realize that?

I asked you a question about the stats I posted. Which you have decided not to acknowledge. Either you don't know as much you try to lead on about analytics or you know these stats I posted don't support your argument.
Lol... Posting terrible stats of a star player isn't a way to show support.

Lol... Can't explain yourself huh? Or do you think the "I know you are but what am I game" works for adults?

I could explain myself, but it would be a waste of time as intellectual honesty is not your thing and you've proven yourself to not be the type to listen. Oh yeah, reading comprehension not being your strong suit is another reason.

First ignore on HF I’ve ever done, now I get this one man conversation I see from Gary. Love it.
Because not only are your numbers wrong, you took somebody who's primary job is to set other players up for great shots and chances and compared them to specific players who take those shots and chances, based exclusively on underlying metrics that only credit players that take the shots and chances, and completely ignores playmaking.
F OFF YOU HATERS!! BEEN HATING ALL YEAR IN THIS APPRECIATION THREAD AND WHERE DID IT GET YOU

Top plus minus for the playoffs, wasn’t in for a goal. Sometimes conservative offensively, but to play that many minutes and surrender nothing, really solidified fact he deserved to be in Selke conversation. 200 ft playoff player, check!

Impressive!
I just said it in the series MVP thread, I find it odd that after about 180 people have voted for the series MVP, only 1 has voted for Marner. I mean Sammy would get my vote but Rielly with over 100 votes and Marner with just 1 is very strange.

I didn’t vote for him either, have to say Morgs or Sam. That said he had a great series, he and Matthews were their man focus to shut down and they fought through a ton and gave up nothing the other way. They did their jobs and then some.
Mitch had a good game last night if a few players finish on his set ups he has 3 points easily
