After a slow start, an injury and COVID-19, Mitch Marner has been back for three games, getting a goal and an assist in each one. New from kevin_mcgran: Leafs

You can see it in the way Mitch Marner skates, in how he interacts with his teammates on the ice, especially at practice, where his energy sometimes overflows.

Things seemed different at the start of this season, though. Marner wore the first-round playoff loss to Montreal rather heavily, maybe more than most with a fan base finally liking what they saw in William Nylander and turning on Marner, whose post-season statistics pale in comparison to what he does in the regular season.

Keefe noticed it right away when Marner joined the team in Arizona for a practice in the middle of what already felt like a long trip. “I meant for that to happen,” says Marner, who obviously never lost his sense of humour. “Tried to go backhand and quickly back to forehand and lost it. Sometimes when you don’t know what you’re doing on a breakaway, it goes in, and that was the case in that scenario. I’m pretty lucky.”
