Mitch Marner proves Roman Josi correct
After Wednesday night's game, Josi got to speak to the media yet again, where he reiterated his praise for Marner, while also taking a shot at himself.
The Mitch Marner praise is certainly deserved as the forward currently has a total of 36 points in the first 25 games of the NHL season.
Nine of these points have come from goals and another 27 have come from assists.
He is now also back on a line with Auston Matthews which is certainly going to help increase his totals.
Meanwhile, the Leafs have won 10 of their last 12 and boast a record of 16-7-2 which puts them first in the Atlantic Division standings.
