Mitch Marner Ties All-Time Maple Leafs Record on Wednesday Night

Mitch Marner tied Darryl Sittler and Eddie Olczyk for the longest point streak in Maple Leafs history with 18 games. Marner narrowly kept his streak alive, as he needed an empty-netter to keep it going - and seal the game for Toronto.

Over his last 18 games, Marner has scored 7 goals and 17 assists, good for 24 points. He ranks T-8th in the NHL with 28 points on the season, among the likes of Tage Thompson and Nathan MacKinnon, and ahead of players like Kirill Kaprizov, Steven Stamkos, and Jack Eichel.

Marner has a chance to make history if he can keep extend his streak to 19 when the Leafs visit the Tampa Bay Lightning on Saturday night. Fitting isn't it?

The team who defeated the Leafs in their most recent playoff series sits between Marner and a historic achievement.
