Two Leafs currently rank among the NHL's elite in this statistic over the past 3 seasons
Since making their debuts in the 2016-17 season, Mitch Marner and Auston Matthews have been offensive forces. In fact, over the past three seasons, Mitch Marner leads the league in points-per-sixty minutes played at 5-on-5, averaging 3.17 points over that time. Additionally, in that time frame, Marner has produced 117 even strength points in 146 games played, which is the second most even strength points by any player, behind only McDavid.
Second place in 5-on-5 points per sixty minutes played over the past three years is Dallas Stars forward Jason Robertson. Of course, Jason is the brother of Leaf forward Nick Robertson. Jason has been dominant at 5-on-5 as well, averaging 2.98 points-per-sixty minutes. Since earning a full time spot in the NHL three years ago, J. Robertson has played 143 games, registering 101 even strength points, good for eighth most in that time frame. Clearly, Jason Robertson has established himself as one of the leagues top scorers.
