It was the 2015 NHL Draft, and the Toronto Maple Leafs had the fourth overall pick. The first three picks were Connor McDavid to Edmonton, Jack Eichel to Buffalo, and Dylan Strome to Arizona. Mark Hunter had narrowed down the pick to Noah Hanifin, Ivan Provorov, and Mitch Marner. The Leafs ended up choosing Marner. The Marner selection would be a pick that many fans will remember forever, in both good and bad ways.
Marner's time in Toronto was filled with mixed emotions. He brought a lot of good to the Leafs on the ice; he produced a 100-point season, brought a lot of highlight reel plays, but also brought a ton of disappointing moments, and some of the decisions made along the way will end up haunting the Maple Leafs for a very long time.
