Why It Matters
McCrimmon articulated that the reason Marner leads the playoff in points with 21 is because he’s on a deeper team in Vegas than he was on in Toronto. Marner’s centre Jack Eichel is right behind him with 18 points and centre Brett Howden and winger Pavel Dorofeyev on the second line have 10 goals in the playoffs. Marner is in his first Stanley Cup Finals after getting traded from the Leafs to the Vegas Golden Knights during the offseason.
