Player Discussion Mitch Marner, Continued

[GoonieFace]

NHL also stole an obvious assist from him near the end of the 99 point season, so really, he did hit 100.

Yeah, no he didn’t.

Can't believe we still have to endure this purposely obtuse debate. Yes, yes, yes.

2024-25 103.6 pace

2023-24 101 pace

2022-23 101 pace

2021-22 110.4 pace

2020-21 99.9 pace

And as we know, pace is based on games played.
Games not played have no pace.

And the missed assist that would have given him 100 points, had me wondering if we reviewed all games for all players could there be some milestones met and some milestones erroneously given?

1,000 points ... probably secured as 4 assists probably have not likely to have been given Prop.

1,000 points ... Spezza missed 5 assists in 1248 games? Probably not?

Remember when Tavares played a full season with the Little m?
47 goals.

This year with marner, the "3rd. line center" Tavares is close to PPG.

This year marner and Tavares again look like gold.

Tavares scored 12 more even strength goals that year than his previous high. It's a pretty astounding anomaly.

 

[arso40]

Marner yes, Nylander no.

(Nylander was close enough that I'd consider him a 100 point player but saying he paced that would be a lie.)

We have 1 100 point player it’s our number 1 Center

 

[arso40]

The annoying thing is Leafs management actually sat him for games down the stretch, it wasn't his choice, he was almost all but guaranteed to hit 100 one of those seasons.

If he wanted to play they wouldnt stop him mm and am have the keys to this team

We have 1 100 point player it’s our number 1 Center

I’m glad you find it funny acc but what I’m saying is facts your using fancy made up stats nobody gets in the books with expected points only actual points he has zero 100 point seasons hopefully he gets through this year we’re probably the only team that even has these debates about pace rather than results

 

[Dekes For Days]

Yeah, no he didn’t.

Well he was one of the last 3 players to touch the puck for at least 100 of his team's goals, but you can call it whatever you want. Either way, it shows how silly the distinction is.

 

[Antropovsky]

Marner has 9 points 5 on 5, 2 goals 7 assists, Curiously Connor McDavid also has 9, 5 on 5 points, 3 goals 6 assists
I guess they are in the same 5 on 5 boat. Pastranuk has 9 points both tkachuks have 9 points, Barkov has 9. Just a boatload of guys with 9

Plenty of big name players not doing much better really
Mackinnon 11 points 1 and 10
Draisaityl 11 points

5v5 points per 60:

Barkov is 6th
M.Tkatchuk is 25th
B.Tkatchuk is 57
C.Mcdavid is 62
Mackinnon is 89
Marner is 114th
Pastrnak is 126

Mcdavid was injured but hes picking up (are injury excuses only allowed for postseason Marner)? Pastrnak led his next teammate by 43 points last year, he lacks the high end linemates that the rest have. Note that Marner wasnt able to produce a single point 5v5, or even a shot on goal.. in the 5 games with Tavares and Matthews off his line.

Something to keep an eye on. Hopefully when Matthews comes back, Marner and him are kept apart.

 

[notdoneyet]

His point pace shouldn't be up for debate regardless. Playoff point pace vs players making similar money is more interesting and important.

I haven't worked it out but I think if you normalized everything both MM and WN are both around 9-10m players.

For example. If we had AM and nobody else of worth and we could get MM in free agency. I would offer him 10m and may even outbid to 10.5m, maybe even go the full 11m if desperate.

When we got MM signed to 10.9m I was expecting to see 120pts seasons and that never happened

Just to be sure at 11.5 for nylander you are expecting 125 points or he isn’t worth his contract
And as an aside
At 13.25 matthews should be around what 150 points a season or he isn’t worth his contract

We know your disdain for marner but you just can’t cherry pick one contract and not the others to justify this obsession
