4 years forward O-Dog is still bang on. Siegal doesn't know anything. Can O-Dog find his way to Leafs management under professional scouting?
I finally figured it out. If you’re a former player, media is the best job to get into rather than management. Because if you’re wrong, you can still have a media job. If you’re wrong in management, you’re Peter Chiarelli.

D 17 Well, you are right, I think Marner’s market value is around the 8.5-9.5 million dollar range realistically, but the thing is, lots of players this summer are demanding huge salaries. For example, Boeser wants 10 million per year at 8 years and Laine wants 15 million per year at 8 years. Players who aren’t as good as Mitch are demanding such high amounts, therefore we should not be surprised Marner wants the absolute maximum as well.

FFS look at who he was playing with! Nino who just isn't a first line forward in a play-off team and Williams who is fucking old as shit and it shows. Those two doubled their points just by playing with Aho. Aho goes against the opposition's top line day after day and pretty much outplays them every time. Aho's hockey IQ is off the charts.

I get that centermen probably plays the most vital role in the offence of a team but give me a break. How often do you see a winger with that much playmaking ability instead of just being a sniper being fed pucks? Yes there are a lot of other wingers that put up similar numbers, if not more, and finish plays more but that will happen for marner as we see him grow.

O'Neill is definitely right about Point. A 2 way Selke level center who scored 41 goals and 92 points? All day over Marner who is a winger who is poor defensively. Also Siegel saying Leon and Nylander had the same stats? Leon was coming off a 77 pt season and 16 pts in 13 playoff games. Nylander had a career high of 61 pts then. Such a dumb point. Obviously Draisatl's 9 pts in 37 games as a teenager is gonna bring down his career PPG when hes merely played 2 full seasons.

He was the best player on the leafs last season, hes a player that drove that Tavares line all season and ofcourse tavares helps him a ton aswell but as a person who watched that line all 82 games there is no doubt that marner drove it all season long. People also seem to not notice that hes the best 2way forward on the team, his defensive play this season atleast deserved a selki nomination and I can definetly see heart and selki trophy nominations in his future. As much as I dont think he deserves the same money as Matthew's there is no question that so far he is the most consistent, hard working and constantly improving player on the team and aside from kucherov and scheiffele I take him over any of the players they mentioned any day of the week.

@@gordonbgraham yeah I admittedly dont watch every Tampa game but I know and have seen what point did last year and I agree that it's very close and hes a guy that I shouldn't have left out but hes put up less points than marner on an even richer offensive team , granted both play the pk and are very good two way players but point did not look godly until this season even thought the prior was also really good at 66 points but from the beginning of marners career you saw the elite playmaking ability that maybe 5 players in the entire league have ontop of everything else he does. So yeah it's very very close and obviously points a third round pick but I still think I take marner considering it's very very close I just think marners ceiling in terms of special skill is just a bit higher, I think that if people are calling point the next Bergeron which is a bit much if you ask me then I'd say marner is comparable (if not potentially even better) to that of datsyuk.

@@mikestevens3582 I mean I think the comparison is very accurate based on their size, the fact that both are amazing 2 way wings while having the ability to step into center, both are shifty and really offensively creative and highly skilled players. I mean they even call mitch the magician ;) I think you will agree more and more as marners career goes on
is it bad that most of us come here to get as triggered as O-dog about everything that comes out of O-dog? "Point is better than Kuch" had to pause there and laugh that one out

It's a lot closer now than it was two years ago eh?
if the player isn’t going to the leafs and money doesn’t matter wtf is the point of this? it’s like saying if you had your own team would you rather have marner or McDaViD aNd CrOsBy
Now like.... they Would fight irl
The guy in the middle doesn’t lie well.
