Mitch Marner - 2015 4th overall

9 points in 2 games in a 9-1 drubbing.  About to win their 15th game in a row.

Does Marner feel bad for shooting tonight?
A mere 4 assists on a night that every shot is going in...
Does he want the Memorial Cup points record broken in 2 games or not? Because it looks like he doesn't.



;D

Slacker. 
 
16 points is the scoring record. 

Marner is up to 53 points in 20 post-season games.  He also has 169 points in 77 games on the season.  Plus his 6 points in 5 games at the World Juniors.

Marner is now the leading scorer in Knights history at the Memorial Cup with his 9 points.  The title was previously held by Max Domi with 8 points (in 12 games).

Whatever happened to that guy?

Jeff Larmer of the Kitchener Rangers in 1982
Guy Rouleau of the Olympiques in 1986

According to https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ed_Chynoweth_Trophy and http://mastercardmemorialcup.ca/history-records/#individual
 
Marner's only competition this year for the MC scoring title appears to be his centre, Christian Dvorak (Arizona, D+2), who currently sits 1 pt back at 8 pts in 2 games and is leading the tournament in goals scored (5). His hat trick against the Wheat Kings weren't just tap-ins off Marner feeds either.
 
Marner with another 4 point night (4 assists) in a 5-2 Knights' win. They play in the final on Sunday. He now has 13 points in 3 games, a 4.33 ppg pace in the Memorial Cup tournament. Not a bad showing against the best players in the CHL.

One thing I'll say about his game, he's selfless almost to a fault. I hope Babcock gets him shooting the puck a little more, as he seems to be able to place it anywhere he wants.

The length of shifts they take is just nuts.

Opposing coaches have said that they have to devote two lines to stopping Tkachuk/Dvorak/Marner because they routinely take 2-3 minute shifts.

Marner is clearly the straw that stirs the drink on that line, as he keeps track of where everyone is pretty much all the time and slings no-look passes at will to break out of zones, or to capitalize on a vulnerable defense. When he gets the puck crossing the red line, the Knights bench stands up to watch.
 
Yeah its interesting about the 2nd assist stats... he definitely creates something and allows dvorak/tkachuk to finish.

This is what I can't get over. This isn't Laine or Matthews beating up Team France or whatever. Marner (and the Knights) are just streamrolling over the best teams in the CHL here.

That's special.
