Prospect Info: Marner at the top of OHL scoring race.

[Christ]

11 more to tie

Challenge is to score 11 in 3 games...London is killing everyone at this point.

At 100% potential, how do Marner, Matthews and Nylander rank?

All 3 are better than everybody. You can take that to the bank.

 

[Stand Witness]

Pretty cool moment that you won't be able to find anywhere.

The faceoff before Marners shorthanded goal he winked at a disabled man along the boards and then went up to him along the boards before puck drop and acknowledged him.

About 20 seconds later he scored.

Stuff like that isn't recorded and really shows a players character.

No doubt we have a group of highly talented players coming up...who also happen to be great human beings

Among themselves I mean hahaha.

Mike Babcock would be proud.

 

[WTFMAN99]

Mike Babcock would be proud.

Yeah, great culture we're forming with Babcock, Shanny, and Lou at the helm.

I don't see us taking anyone with character issues. Clearly the Nylander rumours were false

 

[Jeypic]

Among themselves I mean hahaha.

Itll be a nice friendly competition for them to have... Especially considering where they're at with their respective development paths.

At 100% potential, how do Marner, Matthews and Nylander rank?

My honest opinion

1) Matthews - Franchise "C"
2) Marner - Franchise "W"
3) Nylander - potential 1st / 2nd line "C / W"

 

[MJ65]

Knights top line with 101 points in these playoffs with just 15 games

 

[Tonka]

My honest opinion

1) Matthews - Franchise "C"
2) Marner - Franchise "W"
3) Nylander - potential 1st / 2nd line "C / W"

I think Nylander is the Franchise W or C compared to Marner. Marner is awesome, but I just think Nylander is a much more developed player and will be the better scorer.

 

[WilliamNylander]

Still can't believe we got a player like Marner at 4

He's easily a top two pick in a lot of other drafts

 

[Kurisu]

scary thing. Marner family home got caught fire before the game.

I have Matthews, Marner, Nylander.

Marner just hasn't gotten his chance to show it in the NHL.

But they're a trio anyway. All core members. The three amigos. The three tenors. Goodfellas.

wtf?

I hope everyone stays safe, as well as their home. And that there was no foul play involved. I hope this doesn't rattle him, either.

 

[Stephen]

You guys are sleeping on Nylander. With everything he's done there is no reason he can't be a high end 1st line C/W. He reminds me of a Backstrom/Kane type player. And so far he's exceeded all expectations. Having him on a 2nd line means he's going to eat a lot of teams alive. Now imagine Stamkos with AM, and Marner with William. Jesus...

Nylander is like precision European engineering. Everything is so refined and high end and he just performs all the time. It's almost like we're getting greedy, but to assume we can get two forwards ahead of him, that's something special.

That's crazy. Hope they're ok.

 

[Pi]

I can't wait till the puck drops next season. I want to see MNM in action next year. There is 0% chance of Marner in the OHL again and idiots at the Toronto Star who think Matthews will be in the AHL are also out to lunch.

 

[Auston Matthews]

Wow... I hope the damages are not too bad for the Marner home.

No wonder he looked a little bit off his game today.

I also hope no jealous/insane fans are responsible for that

 

[MJ65]

I think Nylander is the Franchise W or C compared to Marner. Marner is awesome, but I just think Nylander is a much more developed player and will be the better scorer.

I hope you are right and per your opinion if he is better than Marner then in few years this team is going to be real contender in few years, as I am sure that Marner is a elite winger

 

[Stand Witness]

Actually saw the Marner family at the game today. They were in the same section as me. Constantly had to talk with fans which I kinda feel bad for them. I'd assume it is offside to talk to a players parents unless they start up the conversation no? Must be really annoying.

Saw a Coyotes scout leaving the game with about 3 minutes left. Would have loved to sit beside him and try and ask a couple questions during intermission. Although back to my other point would this be offside as well?

The Winter Soldier has finally gone too far.

 

[Gabriel426]

Willie will be great, he got the quiet swagger and seems to be willing to work.
Marner is The flashiest of the three
Matthews is just a rock.

What an amazing core to have.

Wonder if they will ever play together as one line?

Nylander-Matthews-Marner

All three of them will be stars for the Maple Leafs for the next decade.

We may have 3 new Sundins

 

[Willie Oree]

At 100% potential, how do Marner, Matthews and Nylander rank?

I got Matthews, Nylander and Marner.

Much of which I'm basing on what scouts say about them.
