Mitch Marner or Johnny Gaudreau

[Tkachuky]

4 years ago when Gaudreau had 64 points in his D+4 when Marner got 69 in his D+3 last year?

So Chucky > Marner right? Since Chucky is PPG in his D+3.

Math is pretty simple. What’s larger 4 years or 14 months?

What's larger 6 seasons or 3?

That’s the only argument you guys have. Age.

for now...

I wonder what team you’re a fan of?

What did I say that was false?

 

[ER89]

Gaudreau pretty easily. All it takes is watching them play for 5 minutes and the skill levels are obvious.

It's a good thing cgy fans aren't as daft as you.

I'd rather mitch but Johnny is sick. Contracts obv jg takes it if mitch gets more than 8.

Saying it’s not even close now?? Take off those blue tinted glasses, Gadreau is close to Marner as they come.

I really enjoy reporting your posts. There’s nothing wrong with being a homer. There is something wrong with being a newly made hater troll account like yours

Again ignoring what I said and jumping to the conclusion I’m a troll?? Why not answer my question?

Gaudreau is far better. Smarter, more tenacious, and isnt a passenger on his own line. Marner leaves much to be desired and soon will be massively overpaid... call me when Marner completes a season at ppg

Had a hat trick tonight. Wasn't a fake one like Marner's either.

I just wish Gaudreau had some creativity though. Such a boring player.

Oh man better brag up that empty netter! What a goal it was! That put Johnny over the top for sure.

Not sure if you're sarcastic or not, but as far as empty-netters go, that was a good one.

While reading this thread I am wondering whether the Leafs fans are nudists or something? Because they sure do like to show their ass.

I simply don’t think that Marner produces at the level Gaudreau has if they swap places.

You're only going to have to wait 3 months for that.

This is always the test for me. Both these guys are great, but swap them and JG produces more in both situations imo.

Marner is the better defensive player though.

Yeah that second goal he had was textbook boring.

He's a tough player to watch unless you've had some caffeine.

Gudreau is a good one.

Marner is better.

I really wish some people would actually watch Marner before criticizing him. Calling him a passenger on his own line just proves how ignorant your knowledge of Marner is.
Oh.....and get ready for that phone call real soon.

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

Gudreau is a good one.

Marner is better.

Gaudreau has points on 39.0% of Flames goals. Marner has points on 35.7% of Leafs goals. Gaudreau has a point on 73.9% of all flames goals scored when he is on the ice, Marner only 71.4%. That tells you who is more important to their teams and who has more offensive support.

Also helping Gaudreau's case: he's got more goals and points than Marner despite carrying a much more sustainable on ice shooting percentage and having less offensive support.

Marner is definitely not a passenger on his line - he drives the play as much or more than Tavares. With the puck on his stick he is every bit of a play driver that Gaudreau is.

Lol.......what?
Ok. First off it was an empty net goal. Second of all that Nudist joke was just bad. Good try tho I guess, thanks for coming out. Maybe next time.

Meaner has one less point in one less game played while playing less minutes and much less pp time.
Gaudreau is an awesome awesome player but Marner in my opinion marner is better.

I feel like you've actually never see Mitch Marner play.

Is Gaudreau smarter and more tenacious? Since entering the league, the only forwards with more takeaways than Mitch Marner are Mark Stone and Connor McDavid. No forward has more giveaways than Johnny Gaudreau during this span, and he leads that category by a country mile. Marner hits and blocks shots much more often as well, and by "much more often" I mean he actually does those things.

Marner is pretty obviously driving his line, all you have to do is watch the games. Or just notice that he's on pace to finish about 20 points ahead of Tavares. Just look at the goals JT is scoring this year. Tap-ins on the crease, coming from Marner. Marner doesn't get phantom assists, they're virtually all primary points. If someone has the stats for this, send me the link.

Marner would have to score at the worst pace of his career from here on out to finish under a PPG. But it's true he has yet to record a point-per-game season at age 21. For comparison, Gaudreau was coming off 3 consecutive PPG seasons at Boston College at this age (although he wouldn't do it in the NHL until age 24).
