Ev g/60
Marner: .8, .7, 1
Rantanen: .8,.8, .7
PP g/60
Marner: 1.3, 2.6, .8
Rantanen 1.2, 2.4, 3.1
Other than the last season, it doesn't really look a lot different.
Nhl.com lists Rantanen at 1.21 g/60 last year, and Marner at 0.96
Year prior, Rantanen at 1.13, and Marner at 0.98
And if I bring up Rantanen's post season this year, things start to look embarrassing...
I mean, it appears more than anything that people can just spin things however they wish to support whatever narrative they want.
Let's try it this way...
When it comes to REAL points, advantage Rantanen (he was ppg two seasons in a row... I'm being consistent with the Nylander/Pastrnak threads).
When it comes to p/60, advantage Marner.
When it comes to g/60, advantage Rantanen (and I was told in all the Matthews threads that goals are FAR more important than points).
It's pretty silly to make the case that Marner deserves more than Rantanen. It takes a whole series of outrageous stat mining to try and make that case.
And I can't wait to see a comparison where the LEAF player has more REAL points, and much lower stats like even strength p/60. I flat out guarantee that, in those cases, everyone will cite just the REAL points. Not the stat mined ones. I absolutely guarantee it.
