Will Mitch Marner become star?

[MJ65]

Marner was not a star as he was a super star this afternoon

 

[DarkKnight]

you guys always think anything positive said about non-leaf player is attack on a leaf player

No.

 

[stickty111]

It really isn't loool it's offense, he's been sheltered as **** this season so it's not even a discussion for me. Provorov is probably the only dman I'd take over him in hindsight even if I couldn't make the trade now

Hanifin was never in the question for the Leafs and for good reason. Hanifin isnt good and Canes fans seem to agree. Aside from Marner, Leafs liked Werenski, Provorov and Rantanen.
Interesting the players Hunter liked are doing well.
Almost like Hunter is good at analyzing talent.

Is there proof of that ?

 

[Garthinater]

Voted star earlier today. Mitch came through lol

Werenski was one of the players the Leafs brought to their combine place of some sort. Menzinger mentioned it.
If Marner got taken, Leafs would have moved down for one of the d man, provorov or Werenski.
Basically Leafs were not interested in Strome or Hanifin, and its looking like the correct decision.

 

[Beyonder91]

He is still leading the team in assists and 3rd in scoring despite having a shooting percentage of 4.47% (LOL).

 

[lifelonghockeyfan]

Well he was today. But so was Carrick and Bozak. I think Marner has a bright future. He may never be an all star as such but good but 25 goal, 65 point guy.

 

[diceman934]

Strome will be a star, he just needs some time, he was going to easily win the AHL point title this season. Strome may end up the better player, who knows.

Not a hope in hell will he be better. His feet are not that great. As skating is going to hold him back.

In today's league, that classifies as a star.

 

[david999]

Marner was great today, but Babcock only played him 13 minutes.

not satisfied with a 4 pt game from mitch and a 8~1 win?

 

[stickty111]

Bill Peters at this point needs to scratch Hanifin. He was minus 3 and horrible. Not a satisfying performance by "im good because I lead my team in ice time"
Looks like Canes made a huge mistake picking Hanifin.

Both are good picks. Marner is also!

Listen, listen. The team won. But why didn't player "X" or player "Z" get (insert valued asset here).
Blasphemy. Disrespect right there.

 

[The List Of Jericho]

Great game, could have easily gotten 5 or 6 points

 

[LeafFever]

Can you imagine the freaking out on this board right now if Strome was taken? He'd be hailed a bust. Marner got 61 points last year and everyone is freaking out.
I don't agree he'll be a star at all. Just too slow. Second line C.

I dunno, hard to say, he was about to light up the AHL in points at age 20, he is gifted scorer.

the AHL is a different league. nothing Strome has done in his career is as impressive as 60 points in the NHL and there's no indication he'll be anywhere near as good as Marner

There's a YT vid from the Blue Jackets, was Kekkolainen (sp?) fieiding a call from the Leafs at the draft, offering our 4th for CBJ's 8th and all their 2nd rounders. The thought was they'd be picking one of Werenski or Provorov if they made that deal.
