Marner collected an assist and dished three hits in Sunday's 5-2 loss to the Sabres.
EDGE Analysis
Marner had the secondary helper on Zach Hyman's third-period tally. In his last three games, Marner has a goal and two assists. The play-making winger is up to 60 points, 123 shots and a plus-1 rating through 49 contests this year. He's on track to challenge the 80-point mark, but lost time due to an ankle injury earlier in the season will likely keep his career high of 94 points out of reach.

Marner picked up three assists, one on the power play, in Friday's 5-4 overtime win over the Ducks.
EDGE Analysis
The Leafs' superstar trio of Marner, Auston Matthews and John Tavares each had at least three points in this one, and they combined for the latter's OT winner on the power play with only seven seconds left in extra time. Marner has a seven-game point streak going and has done most of his damage as a facilitator during that stretch, piling up one goal and 11 points.

Marner scored the game-winning goal in Saturday's 2-1 overtime win over the Senators.
EDGE Analysis
It came on the power play. The point stretched his current scoring streak to four games and five points (one goal, four helpers). But it was just his fourth goal in 14 games since Christmas. Marner is rolling along with 51 points in 41 games and should top the 20-goal mark for the third straight season.

Marner tallied two assists in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Since returning Dec. 4, Marner has found the scoresheet 32 times, third-most in the NHL. Carrying a career-best 12.6 shooting percentage into Wednesday's contest, Marner only attempted one shot on goal, this coming after he was shut out in Toronto's previous game, a 5-2 win over Nashville. More goals would be nice, though, it's hard to take issue with the forward's production when healthy in 2019-20.

Marner collected an assist in Wednesday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
Marner set up the first of two goals by Auston Matthews in the contest. The 22-year-old winger has a goal and six helpers over his current six-game point streak. Dating back to Dec. 4, when he returned from an ankle injury, Marner has seven tallies, 17 assists and eight power-play points while only being held off the scoresheet twice in the 16-game span. The fourth-overall pick from 2015 is humming along with 42 points and 87 shots through 34 appearances overall.

Marner produced a power-play assist in Monday's 6-4 loss to Edmonton.
EDGE Analysis
Marner logged 4:28 of ice time with the man advantage in the loss and wound up coming away with an assist for his efforts, giving him 30 helpers to go along with 11 goals this season. Missing a large chunk of games with an ankle injury hasn't seemed to slow Marner down, as he's found the scoresheet 23 times in 15 contests since returning from injury.

Marner set up two goals in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Islanders.
EDGE Analysis
The points stretched his current streak to four games and five points (one goal, four helpers). But more impressively, Marner showed a tenacity on the defensive side of the puck that shows his game has gone to a new level since his return from injury. He made a Pavel Datsyukian move to strip the puck off a streaking Islander forward. Marner's game is 200-feet long without compromising any offense. There aren't many in the NHL who can boast the same.
