RED DEER, Alta. — Mitch Marner's dad built him a display case for his accomplishments while he was still playing minor hockey. His latest trophy might need its own stand.
The London Knights forward was named Canadian Hockey League player of the year on Saturday — a trophy so big in size that two people had to carry it for Marner when it was time for him to take pictures with it.
"My dad got (a trophy case) made when I won my first one, it was special at that time with little trophies," said Marner.
