Player Discussion Mitch Marner, Continued

[thewave]

But don’t forget about playoffs

You know the playoff where he is our leading scorer, finishes ever playoff in the plus,
He doesn’t compare to nylander in the playoffs who shows up for every game and finishes each playoff in the minus

Oh I forgot to mention most of marners points are secondary assists

Did I get all that right

Playoffs Shmlayoff pay offs. Christmas present contract incoming. 14m?

Pretty damn good passer

 

[Mentat]

Can´t wait for the PO, where the other team clogs up the passing lanes and his muffin of a shot shines the brightest. Not.
PROVE ME WRONG, Mitch!

 

[Racer88]

Pretty damn good passer

Pretty good goal scorers to finish off the passes

 

[DarkKnight]

Rarified air there. His vision is ridiculous.

 

[Gallagbi]

I know this is meant to highlight Marner, but holy shit is McDavid on another level than anyone else in this league

 

[DarkKnight]

Interesting comments from Berube on why a forward, Marner, leads the team in ice time. Only forward in league to do so.

Craig Berube on Mitch Marner leading the Leafs in ice time as a forward: "He has a great engine, and I don't see him get too gassed or lose much energy very often"

Ahead of Wednesday’s game, head coach Craig Berube discussed Jake McCabe’s absence, Fraser Minten’s hockey IQ, strong goaltending through 24 games, and Mitch Marner’s team-leading TOI. What happened with Jake McCabe, who is out again tonight? Berube: Just not feeling right. He’s not feeling well...

Spotted at Mitch’s house:

 

[Stringer Bell]

Let's see how he performs in the playoffs.

 

[DarkKnight]

Marner now on a 118 point pace now, and a defensive juggernaut.

should have won the selke when Bergeron won it last

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Mitch acted a bit more like Gilmour tonight, starting a scrum to go along with all his assists.



Probably helped knowing Knies was right there to back him up. Dougie had Wendel too.

 

[BraveCanadian]

Amazing third period by Marner tonight.

He also had this one against Minnesota. He’s def been mixing it up a little more this season.

 

[ACC1224]

It’s been a rough go for his detractors. Hate to see it. Unfortunately looks like he’s reached another level.

 

[Jacquestrapless]

whatever is necessary

 

[DarkKnight]

He's in the Selke conversation again if he keeps it up. And that ain't fanboying. His defensive detail and improved board work, looks good everywhere on the ice.

Still too much on the perimeter. That scrum he was in was like 200 feet from the net.

He's been really effective on the wall, it's the last piece to his game.

 

[The Podium]

This fan base is so bipolar

Not in this thread, firmly entrenched

There is a point at which Hart trophy references are going to start being made. Has there been a better player in the NHL this season?
