Marner over scheifele or oreilly

Maybe Scheifele, but not oreilly as the 4th line should be able to defend. Marner clearly can't do that, he'll probably yeet the puck out of the rink.

Why do people keep putting the best sports player in the world in the 2nd line?!?!??!??!?! Switch line 1 and 2, lol

Classic leafs fan.

Marner is not making this team sorry dude.

Best on best, 1 game winner takes all Sidney Crosby is the guy if you want to win a game. You don’t win a gold medal for scoring a lot of points.

He is the leader of this team. The captain. And that line should and will be the 1st line.

If Sid can't even be a "one game one guy who you takin" in the playoffs (past few seasons), how's he gonna do it in the Olympics? lol
If points don't win you medals then how do you win one cause you can't win by not getting goals/points?

McDavid will be 1st line guaranteed, whether it's as a Center or a winger

Lol sure bud.

Yeah bud…losers since 67

The only way McDavid plays 1st line is if he is on Sidney Crosby’s wing. (Which there was rumor of actually)

Sidney Crosby is unquestionably the leader of this team and will be relied upon for the most important face offs and key moments of the game. Sidney Crosby is still a better all around player than 97. Thankfully the Canadian brass still realize this and will utilize him in this way. 97 is over rated.

If last seasons postseason series between Toronto and Montreal taught us anything

It’s both never overhype Toronto and Marner is terrible in high stakes games

You don't have to be 1st line to be the leader

If you think 97 is over rated, then with I'll do respect but you're a salty Pens fan who is mad he's better than Sid, lol. McD is top 3 all time (regardless of Cups, I'm talking pure skill and talent. McD is doing things Crosby has never done), not Sid (still top 8). But Pens fans are biased towards Sid we all know this so 1 (most Pens fans) opinion don't mean nothin compared to most of the hockey world that agree McD > Sid

EDIT: Also if you think he's overrated you clearly don't watch him play or keep up with the stat comparisons he's putting up. He's playing like it's the 70s and makes it look easy and effortless.

Lazy retort. Do better

Losers since 67….

A loser response

lol this isn't even a leafs fan thing he was 4th in points last season, plays PK, good defensively, after a slow start playing really well again this season. He's all but a lock. If he was on the Habs I'd say the same thing

No one outside of Toronto even considers him

Good one man
