The Toronto Maple Leafs have had some awful playoff results during Mitch Marner’s career, but even that doesn’t fully explain how he become so underated.
The Toronto Maple Leafs second-best player is not underrated in the traditional sense.
He is very popular, people know who he is, he’s an allstar, an award nominee, and he roundly considered one of the best players in the NHL.
The thing is, Marner should be more or less universally acknowledged as one of the NHL’s top five or six players, but he’s barely even listed that highly on positional rankings.
