When i watch Marner the skillset reminds me of Patrick Kane but i dont see the same mindset on the ice. I see a lack of drive, overhandling of the puck and poor decision making. I think Kane being insulated with the right pros ( Toews) helped his on ice maturity. Marner comes off to me as a bit lazy and immature and i don't see anyone on the team that can hold him in check. I thonk Tavares was supposed to be that guy but he us a robot programmed to play hockey and give dense, obvious, dull hockey statements after games. Im not sure this team has enough of a window to wait for Mitch to mature. I also suspect Mitch might ve one of those ONT kids who is better served in a non hockey market.
Damn, did you drink some voodoo water and regenerate brain cells overnight? Oddly good post.
Just send him to Carolina with AJ for Svechnikov and Pesce and call it a day. Gain an additional $6 million+ of cap space and use that to sign Pietro. Would completely overhaul the right side of our defense and get a bulldog in Svechnikov who has high end upside.
