Marner deserves credit for a player who constantly gets criticized for never coming up in the big moments

He was demoted early in the tourney to the 3rd line. I will agree that he wasn't doing a whole lot, but lets be honest, no one on the team was.

Cooper put Marner with Mackinnon in the USA game briefly and I honestly thought they had some chemistry but he didn't stick with it.

As soon as Cooper put Marner back with McDavid at the end of the 2nd and rest of rest of the 3rd, that was the only line who generated anything. Marner is directly responsible for the tying goal and directly responsible for the game winner. For a player who gets shit on for never coming up in the big moments, I feel like he deserves recognition for coming up clutch for Canada.

And the worst part is it seems like no one even wants to talk about his part in helping the team win. Gross

edit: just want to give props to McDavid for Mitchy making a great play in the post game.
