Player Discussion Mitch Marner, Continued

[arso40]

Those are fun stats to look at but part of the problem has been finding any sort of half decent LW to play with JT/Nylander. Its why their xGF% and shot differential is waaaay better than the final product. No finish or jam on their LW.

Just give them a Patches/McMann on the LW and poof....they are above 70% this year.

These guys ignore roster alignment and look at pure stats mar we gets first dibs on all the players clearly playing with the captain even though he was perfectly fine with jt

1 goal in 11 games. Needs to start creating his own offence.

Last scored Dec. 7 vs Dubas, 8 games ago. 1 goal in last 12 games and 1 goal in first 11 games of the season. 8 goals in November.

Doesn't scream Hart Trophy or $13m to me.

 

[DarkKnight]

He has 14 points in the last 11 games. Sheesh.

Mitch is very limited if he doesn't have a scorer with him. 30 goals player at best. So thats like what a 7m player. Around here though they say MM made Matthews. I dont

Marner's always been a very good regular season player. LOL Hart Trophy though, he's nowhere near that good. Now $13m, that's another story and I'm sure someone would pay him that much, I just hope it's not us.

Mitch has been really good. Give him credit. Has played very well especially with Matthews being absent so much.

I still think we need to wait with the contract until playoffs, unless it’s a discount.

That has been my position since the season started. I also do not like paying a player who is a career 25 goal scorer, and has a reputation of disappearing in playoff games 5-7, $13mx8. He has also sucked in his last 12 playoff games.

He’s still getting the wrong kind of points. He needs the ones that would be considered ‘creating offense’.

Mitch Haters are pathetic

Dear jebus, some of you people are obsessed with using small sample sizes to make your points. Why don't you just go back a few years and look at the numbers to see the long term trends. I'm not going to do the work for you. Also note that Marners ALWAYS plays against the Crobys etc.

it’s more of recent samples that seem to be the issue. Years past are just that, years past. They are not really much more of an indicator then current event because current events are happening right now and that’s what people are concerned about

 

[Racer88]

The only problem I had with Marner last night is the camera shotthey showed of him still sitting on the bench after the game was over. He was looking at an IPad and obviously Didn’t like what he saw because he then threw it over his shoulder over his right shoulder, no doubt breaking it.
Definitely has no respect for other people’s property

I saw that as well. His attitude is shit post game, on the bench etc. Then he does the stupid dances on ice? Like what does he think he is a wolf trying to coax a dog to come play. It's so contrived. I hate it all based on the lack of authenticity alone. Good regular season player, spoiled brat and least likable star Leaf of all times.
