Marner is the better player, overall.

Aho scores a few more goals, but Marner will get you more points and controls the entire game most nights. Electric player, who keeps other teams on their heels as they fear what magic truck he'll perform next.
Magic truck vs the professor :laugh:

Went with Aho, Aho is already the best player in his team, a really really smart player with no big weaknesses to his game.

Marner is a skilled and creative player too and has a great future ahead of him but to me Sebastian is better.

Aho is literally carrying the Hurricanes, Marner is behind the HUGE shadow of Matthews in a rather comfortably role. Aho is way, way better AINEC.

Carrying them to what exactly? A lottery pick?

Marner has been carrying the Leafs for the past 2 months (you'd know if you weren't talking out of your ass).

Matthews has also been hurt quite a bit this year FYI.

Despite Marner being ice cold for so long, he still has more points.

Right, it's Marner's fault that Carolina doesn't know how to draft or sign good forwards.

What kind of logic is this? Aho doesn't even have more points despite playing 2 more minutes per game this year and despite him missing 5 more games than Mitch, he has still played 50 more minutes (so nearly an entire game). He also gets 40 more seconds of PP time per game and has played nearly 30 more minutes on the PP than Mitch this year.

He also had the worse rookie year, so there's no argument to be had there.

There is no actual argument to be made for him being better, Marner was drafted higher and has performed at a higher level at every step of the way.

Carrying the Hurricanes where exactly? Because Marner has nearly led the NHL in points since January on the 3rd in the Conference Leafs, while Matthews is injured. Aho is a nice player, don't get me wrong, but he's no Marner.

Some pretty absurd opinions in this thread lol.

Both excellent young players, most tangible evidence gives the edge to Marner.
