Player Discussion Mitch Marner, Continued

[notDatsyuk]

Marner didn't get "a few" Selke votes, he finished 3rd. Come on let's be fair.

Also, anyone with eyes knows he's an excellent PKer. Berube is literally double shifting him some PKs this year, he's our best forward ainec. We don't have to downplay his attributes. He's a stud PKer and one of the best defensive forwards in the game. Stick to wilting in the playoffs and being too fancy at times, that's where reality lives.

How long ago was that? Last year he got 6 out of 970 votes, including 1 first (out of 194). Come on let's be fair.

Way way way back in 2023. Laughable you diminish the first Leaf in 30 years to be a finalist. Fairly boring.

this dude needs to show up in the playoff competitions to get the monkey off his back if you know what I mean?

If Marner were to get more than Nylander amd I were Nylander, I would feel under appreciated and that's weird to say considering they are all overpaid now as is.

That's making the assumption that Marner and Nylander have tracked similarly pointswise for the entire length of their contracts, as opposed to the last two years only.

If you lose your last game in the playoffs nobody cares what happened in the regular season.

Funny how this rule applies to Marner and no one else on this team...

It applied to AM, Willie, JT and even Reilly.

The difference is that, those four mentioned didn't have a group of diehard fans or security to defend them, thus the discussions didn't last long.

Lets trade him for Dahlin. Just for the fun of watching who will be thriving the most in the new environment. Seems like almost the same love hate ratio between fans. The 4 fans of Buffalo and our 4mill.
