Marner delivered two assists in a 4-3 overtime win over New Jersey on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
He also delivered four hits. Marner's pass to spring William Nylander on a breakaway for the OT winner was classic Mitch -- he wired it from behind his own blue line and threaded it right on Willie's stick at the offensive blue line. Nylander did the rest. Marner has just one goal in his last 10 games, but his 12 helpers have helped lead the way for the Leafs. Overall, he leads the Leafs in scoring with 62 points in 46 games, and he's second in assists in the NHL (48), behind Nathan MacKinnon, who has 55. Marner is the sixth skater in Leafs' history to reach 700 points in blue and white and the fastest to reach the milestone (622 games). He passed Darryl Sittler, who reached 700 in 666 games.

Marner tallied an assist Thursday in a 6-3 loss to Carolina.
EDGE Analysis
Unfortunately, both he and Auston Matthews were dominated by the Canes' checking line, and both men finished minus-6 on the night. Marner has three assists in his last two games. He's a proud guy who can shut down opponents, so he will lick his wounds for a minute and then recalibrate his approach for the Leafs' next game.

Marner had a goal and four assists in a 6-4 win over Boston on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Marner had a five-point game for the fifth time in his career and tied Babe Dye for the second most in franchise history. Darryl Sittler has seven five-point games. The 27-year-old Marner had been held off the scoresheet Thursday on Long Island to snap a nine-game, 13-point streak (three goals, 10 assists). Marner was reunited with Auston Matthews (upper body) and Matthew Knies on the top line Saturday, and the trio dismantled the Bruins with a combined five goals and eight assists. He sits second in the NHL with 42 assists and fourth with 56 points (40 games). Two words: contract year.

Marner recorded two assists, including one on the power play, in Friday's 6-3 win over the Sabres.
EDGE Analysis
Marner pushed his point streak to four games with two helpers in Friday's win, though surprisingly, he hasn't scored a single goal in that span. The star winger has gone six straight games without finding the back of the net, but he continues to find ways to produce. The 27-year-old has been Toronto's best player this season, scoring a team-high 44 points (10 goals, 34 assists) across 33 games while also racking up 80 shots, 17 hits, 17 blocked shots, and a plus-2 rating.

EDGE Analysis
He also had a goal disallowed on a coach's challenge for offside in the first period. Marner has 40 points, including 30 helpers, and 76 shots in 30 games this season. He's having a fabulous season under coach Craig Berube and is a fantasy pillar for managers.

Marner scored a goal on four shots, dished a power-play assist and went minus-2 in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Penguins.
EDGE Analysis
Marner's eight-game point streak ended in Friday's 3-1 loss to the Capitals. He responded Saturday with his 11th multi-point outing in his last 14 contests, as he continues to score at an elite rate. The 27-year-old is up to 10 goals, 28 helpers, 15 power-play points, 68 shots on net and a plus-4 rating through 27 appearances. His surge has kept him on pace to finish well over 100 points, a mark he's yet to reach in his career. It helps that he's playing for a new contract.
