Eklund: Crowdsourcing: Who would you rather sign:Bennett or Marner?

regular season Marner
playoffs Bennett.

I remember that the knock on Marner when he first came into the league was that he wasn't going to be able to stand up to the physical rigors of the league. He has quelled those doubts for the regular season but they stand up in full force during each of the playoff runs. Since the goal is to win the Stanley Cup and not the President's Trophy, I'll take Benet all day long in this head to head match up...

Both

Auston Matthews. 3 big goals in his past 15 playoff games

For the season or for the playoff

gee, a Sens fan who can follow instruction.

We ain't talking about Matthews but falls in the same boat.

Interesting, same was said about Patty Kaner, not being to hold up to the physicalness of the NHL.....he turned into Showtime....Marner not so much

Bennett, as a Leaf, would not last more than 6 minutes in each playoff series before he was suspended by the league.

Have to soak him in tomato juice a while to get the Calgary out of him, but I'd love to see Bennett added to the Oilers.

I don't get fans of teams that are knocked out that talk poop about the team that eliminated them

There was one bad Flames fan doing same in Oiler threads when LA was up 2-0. Like (frank) your team didn't even make the playoffs, maybe time to tone down the smack talk or go give it to another non playoff team

So true. I get his whole Leafs suck mantra but bro. Among all the disasters, the Leafs had the easiest time against your poop squad.

Id like to see what he looks like away from Marner. Marner seems afraid to go to the dirty areas in this series… Put Marner with someone tougher and try domi maybe with Matthews might get him going
