gold star for USAHOF

36. Mitch Marner

36. Mitch Marner

Drafted Fourth Overall in the 2015 Draft, Marner led the London Knights to a Memorial Cup Championship in 2016, proving himself to be one of the best Juniors of his day.  Marner transferred that success shortly after to the Maple Leafs, posting a 61 Point season and earning All-Rookie honors at Right Wing.

Marner continued to adapt quickly to the NHL speed, and the playmaker had a 94 Point campaign in 2018-19, his third year in Hockey.  Although Marner’s numbers only saw him score 67 Points in both 2019-20 and 2020-21, he played less than 60 Games those years, with the latter being the COVID-shortened season.  Marner was named a First Team All-Star that year, and he built on that last season with his best year to date, with a 97 Point year and his second straight First Team All-Star Selection.  While unable to secure another post-seasin All-Star in 2022-23, Marner set a new high in Points with 99.

Entering hiserightth season in Toronto, and in addition to his aforementioned honors, he has received both Selke and Lady Byng votes in the last five seasons, with two 13th-place finishes for the Hart.  This is a player to keep watching and is currently one of the top Wings in Hockey.
