Move over Auston Matthews, Mitch Marner is currently the Toronto Maple Leafs best player and should be a Hart Trophy nominee.
It takes a pretty special player and season to take over the title as the Toronto Maple Leafs best player from the reigning Hart Trophy winner, but that’s just how great Marner is playing right now. Whenever he’s on the ice, he has a chance to make an impact and his hard-work is paying off.
Marner and Matthews have been connected since their rookie year and this duo will hopefully have a long career together like the other current greats such as Patrick Kane/Jonathan Toews or Sidney Crosby/Evgeni Malkin.
