What is Marner upside? Dougie of 92-93 or Giroux as 1C or is he Patrick Kane or St. Louis or Johnny Hockey as a scoring winger?
As a Leafs fan, ofcourse I want Marner to become as good as one of those five and Hanifin is Luke Schenn and Aki Berg 2.0.
Reality is I think both will be great players and since the Leafs already have Morgan and Jake(someone who could be top pairing), and pretty much no top end forwards beside Nylander, it was the right move to pick Marner.
I've never agreed with the comparisons to Kane. Aside from the occasional flash and similar statures, they are nothing alike. I'm a big fan of Kane (recent drama notwithstanding), but Marner is a different kind of beast.
