Player Discussion Mitch Marner, Part 3758391849

[Sundinisagod]

What's AAV people on here think he wants from us?

13m x 3

Then

17.5 x 8

 

[Confucius]

Your narrow belief is there are only 3 good defensive players in the league?

Regardless the point seems to be Selke worthy players don’t make a lot in the grand scheme of things. Doesn’t seem to be greatly rewarded when you look at past winners

Especially not with wingers.

 

[Confucius]

Especially not with wingers.

Even centers. Cirelli is a finalists yet there were many posts claiming he should not have been in the 4 nations cup. May be the best defensive centre in the entire league all nations. Yet many claimed shouldn’t have been in that tourney.

 

[Antropovsky]

Thankfully he's got a good resume to fall back on when he has his struggles eh

Two cups, 3 finals, 3 art Ross Trophies, 1 Hart and 1 Ted Lindsay...

Yep... I don't think any of us would be mad if Marner mailed it in at 31 after all these accomplishments.

"Marner with only one goal and 7 assists (all but two on the PP), while Nylander, with 20% less ES and PP ice time, has three times as many goals and only one fewer assists (more at ES)."

That was my "statement directly prior". Please tell my what part wasn't true.

Nylander didn't have anywhere close to 20% less ES and PP time.

 

[notDatsyuk]

Nylander didn't have anywhere close to 20% less ES and PP time.

Mea culpa - not sure where those numbers came from.

Marner with only one goal and 7 assists (all but two on the PP), while Nylander, with 5% less ES and slightly less PP ice time, has three times as many goals and only one fewer assists (more at ES).

Corrected, and it still supports my point.

 

[Legion34]

If we keep him I don’t see why we don’t try him at c.

Have Jt on his wing.

Why in the holy hell can he play D and not C?

Right handed. 6 foot. Selke nominated playmaker can’t be our 2c?

Rantanen absolutely torching the Avs right now

Game 7, he scores 2 goals to tie the game. 9 points in his last 3 games.

Turns out he wasn't a product of MacKinnon. Imagine if Marner waived his NTC

 

[IPS]

"Product of Mackinnon" is certainly one of the dumber takes in the last little while

I was just going to say those 2 goals were all him. He’s the reason Dallas has a chance.

Another boxscore watcher take!

Update: 10 points in his last 3 games, including 3 today, to put Dallas up 3-2 against Colorado in Game 7.

Marner's PR team is going to have a tough time spinning this into an argument for Marner being better.

Mitch's contract ceiling is $12Mx8

Full f***ing stop no debate. In a perfect world he's not making what Rantanen makes.

 

[Guided by Veseys]

I doubt he will get a higher aav than Rantanen at this point. Unless it’s a rebuilding team.

Colorado's worst nightmare happening right now.

Wyatt Johnston has a better playoff resume in 3 years than Marner does.

 

[IPS]

Colorados worst nightmare.

There were people earlier in this thread calling Rantanen a $5M player without Mackinnon. No exaggeration, no hyperbole.

 

[Lightsol]

Ain't it funny how the only source for any number other than that is the same Toronto media that bombarded Craig Berube with 6 questions about replacing the goalie after game 5? It's almost like their primary goal is trying to stir up shit...

Rantanen with the hat trick (and 4 point game) to eliminate the Avs

11 points in his last 3 games. Colorado messed up.

Marner blocked this trade for us.

Some narratives got utterly obliterated tonight. They won't eat their crow though.

 

[Nineteen67]

12 million is there for you Mitchy, if you earn it.

Why is he worth Rantanen's money again?

I'm not accepting anymore of these f***ing fairlytales about Marner allegedly being a better player. He deserves less and he should be paid less.

He got 12.5 tax free.
Not the same
