Mitch Marner has been called many things by both Vegas Golden Knights fans and Toronto Maple Leafs fans alike. For Golden Knights fans and Marner stans, they've called him "Magic." The Marner stans have leaned more into the fandom, calling him affectionate names like "Our little princess."
As for the Maple Leafs fans who were mad over his departure? Just imagine every expletive in the book. Just add some burning jerseys and you get the picture. But the new name that Golden Knights fans and Maple Leafs fans should start calling him is "Record holder."

Marner was the fastest player in Golden Knights history to hit 20 points, doing so in 18 games. The former "Core Four" member has four goals and 16 assists this season. He's on pace for 18 goals and 73 assists, marking one of the best seasons (potentially) in Golden Knights history.
Over the summer, the winger signed an eight-year, $12 million AAV deal with the Golden Knights. Initially, he was traded by the Toronto Maple Leafs to Vegas for Nicolas Roy, who currently has... one goal and three assists.
Mind you, he's part of the long list of Maple Leafs injuries that has plagued the Original Six franchise this season. Talk about your double whammys, eh?
Mitch Marner's success with the Vegas Golden Knights proves that Kelly McCrimmon obviously won the trade against the Toronto Maple Leafs
Of course, you already knew this. It's easy to win a trade when it's Nicolas Roy going out for Mitch Marner. However, the point totals prove that this has become a bigger blowout than people realized.
Having five times the point total and setting the franchise record with your new club? That's making an impressive impact that fans will remember for years. It's a testament to the bold, yet calculated, moves that the Golden Knights have made over the years.
Mind you, this wasn't the best summer for McCrimmon, either. Colton Sissons only has one assist and fans are turning on Jeremy Lauzon for his excessive penalties. When in doubt, have Marner so you can travel.
But let's focus on the record for a second. His record shows that he's fitting in seamlessly with the Golden Knights. It doesn't matter if it's on the top line or if he's bumped down to playing with Tomas Hertl and Pavel Dorofeyev. The Markham native has slid into the Golden Knights' offense and has run with it.
If this is what's to come for Vegas, then fans should get hyped up. It's an exciting time for hockey fans in Las Vegas, even if the start has been the most bizarre.
As for Maple Leafs fans? Look away.
