TORONTO -- Auston Matthews is the linchpin of the Toronto Maple Leafs revitalization project, but hes got two fellow high-end rookies who are going to help him fill the net.Any other season on any other team, William Nylander or Mitch Marner would be the center of attention, two impressive rookies with all the tools to create their own offensive magic.They stand 1-2-3 in team scoring. Nylander, 20, leads the way with 12 points (4 goals, 8 assists), followed by Matthews, 19, with 11 points (6-5) and Marner, 19, tied with veteran James van Riemsdyk with 10 points (4-6).?If they keep it up until the end of the season, the Leafs will join the 1980-81?Edmonton Oilers?as the only teams in history with three leading scorers (Wayne Gretzky, Jari Kurri and Mark Messier) all under 21.They are the future, the now, a hat trick of offensive talent, Torontos top picks in the past three NHL drafts.The intense spotlight on Matthews, taken first overall in the draft in June, has allowed Nylander and Marner to slide by with a bit less fanfare.However, its Toronto, hockeys biggest media center, so take that with a grain of salt. Cameras are everywhere.But Nylander and Marner havent flinched.Nylanders got really nice, high-end offensive skill, great hands, Hall of Famer Michel Goulet, a longtime NHL scout and former scorer himself, said Wednesday. Hes always in the right spot offensively. The games I saw him, he was excellent, just excellent. Hes got his head up and knows whats going on around him.Goulet, a four-time 50-goal scorer and one of the games true snipers in his day, compared Marner with another highly skilled player who has made his mark.Marner reminds me of Johnny Gaudreau at times, Goulet said, referring to the talented?Calgary Flames?left winger. Super talented and skilled with the puck. Those are players who are very intelligent and dont get themselves in a bad spot.Former NHLer Jody Hull, head coach of the Ontario Hockey Leagues Peterborough Petes, saw Marner pile up 242 points (83-159) in 120 games with the London Knights during the 2014-15 and 2015-16 seasons.He made things happen every time he had the puck on his stick, Hull said Thursday.Which reminds Hull of another former London Knights star.Patrick Kane, honestly, I do see that comparison, Ive seen both of them in junior, said Hull. Similar traits and all those things with the puck: Marner does some things with the puck where you wonder how he knew his linemate was there. Thats what Patrick Kane [does] when he has the puck.Hull coached Marner on Canadas gold-medal team at the 2014 Ivan Hlinka under-18 tournament, where he got an even better appreciation for the youngster.The one word I use for him is that hes a gamer, Hull said. One thing I remember in the Ivan Hlinka tournament, if he was trying to do something and lost the puck, he would just be relentless to get the puck back. He would hound and hound a player to get that puck back. Because he wanted to make it right.Nylander comes in at 6 foot, 190 pounds; Marner is listed at 6 foot, 170 pounds, but Im not convinced of the 6 foot part when seeing Marner with his equipment off.But Marner certainly has found room on the ice, despite his diminutive frame.Why has it not been a problem for Kane or [Artemi] Panarin or all these guys with great skill? Leafs coach Mike Babcock said this week, when asked why size wasnt an issue for Marner. When they get the puck, the rink gets bigger; when the rest of us get the puck, the rink gets smaller. So they must have something, whether it be their hockey sense, their vision, their speed.... He has room every time he has it.As long as he focuses on working hard and doesnt get comfortable, hes pretty good.I asked Marner what has been the most important lesson through more than a month into this NHL career, and he didnt hesitate with his answer.Youve really got to bear down and listen to your body, take care of your body, thats very important here [in the NHL], said Marner, the fourth-overall pick in 2015. Its just taking care of yourself.How do you do that?On days off, its about just staying in the house, eating the right food, making sure your body is rested, he said. Dont tire yourself out.Translation: lots of Call of Duty.I just sit there and play video games with my buddies, Marner said, chuckling.Or, theres time spent with his veteran teammate Matt Martin.Me and Marty will hang out and go to a movie once in a while, said Marner, his smile widening as Martin walks across the dressing room. Hes like my dad or my uncle. He just takes care of me.Nylanders dad, meanwhile, happened to play 16 NHL seasons. Not a bad resource to have Michael Nylander as your old man.Its good to have a father that you can talk to about things for sure that way, said William Nylander, drafted eighth overall in 2014. I dont think a lot of players have that.The Swedish product had the benefit of 75 AHL games between 2014-15 and 2015-16 (putting up 77 points), plus he played the final 22 games with the Leafs last season before making the full-time jump to the NHL this season.Finding time and space in the NHL, thats what young offensive stars try to figure out in their first season.Its just the way some teams play their systems, Nylander said. Some teams want to take away space, others play different systems, which gives you a bit more time.This is a team full of youngsters absorbing every lesson as they come.For sure, everybody is learning together, Nylander said. We win together and lose together. Hopefully, its going to be like that for a long time. Best Cheap Air Jordan 6 .

Cheap Air Jordan 6 . -- Chicago Bears cornerback Tim Jennings was selected Monday to his second straight Pro Bowl, while guard Kyle Long made it after a solid rookie season. FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- Heads up! Think Brandon Marshall is dangerous with the football in his hands? Better watch out when he starts punting it.The New York Jets wide receiver booted a ball -- that just cleared the bleachers -- in frustration at the end of what coach Todd Bowles called a sluggish practice Tuesday.Well, that one didnt go very far, a smiling Marshall said. I almost got sued. It barely went over the stands. I saw a lady go, `Ahhh! That wasnt good.After running back Dominique Williams dropped a pass, Marshall picked up the ball and kicked it, sending it hurtling toward some campers and parents.It was pretty good, coach Todd Bowles joked. If we need a second punter, we might just bring him back there and pooch one.All kidding aside, it was a quick display of emotion from Marshall, capping a very uneven practice for both the offense and defense.Sometimes you need that, he said, to show people that its not acceptable to come out there and practice like that.Tuesdays session marked the fifth practice of training camp for the Jets.Its competition period and guys are going to express frustration in a certain way, the coach said. Youre in camp, youre going to get frustrated one day. It wasnt a big deal at all. Were going to line up tomorrow and play again.Bowles added that showing that type of emotion is fine -- as long as its in practice and not a game.Thats a penalty, so we know we cant do it, he said. Emotion is one thing, as long as you tailor it the right way.Marshall acknowledged that a few plays before his punt, he tried to slam his helmet down.I couldnt get my helmet off, he said. I was kind of embarrassed. It got stuck. That was good, though. When you throw the helmet, kick the ball, its probably a little too much in one day.In 2009, Marshall threw a well-publicized practice tantrum that got him suspended a week while with Denver, when he also punted a football, walked while the rest of the team ran during warmups and swatted away a few passes thrown to him.He was looking for a new deal and demanded a trade during that time. This was nothing close to that situation, in comparison. It is also nothing new to any of his Jets teammates.Its almost my staple, Marshall said, grinning. Yeah, I do that maybe every five or six weeks.When a reporter asked if he meant every five or six years, Marshall reiterated that its not an uncommon occurrence.During the season, you guys are here for the opening of practice, but then you go inside and do what you guys do, he said.dddddddddddd And, Im out here kicking balls.Quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick, who re-signed with the Jets last week, agreed with the overall sentiment that the team practiced poorly.Its just important for us to remember that we cant waste any days, he said.We did some good things today, but we did more bad than good today. Weve got to be able to learn from it and weve got to continue to be trending upward and getting better each practice.There are high expectations this season for an offense that ranked 10th overall last season and set a franchise record with 5,925 total yards. Fitzpatrick set the team mark with 31 touchdown passes, while Marshall broke Jets records with 109 catches and 1,502 yards receiving.The addition of running back Matt Forte is expected to further improve the Jets ability to move the ball down the field. Marshall said Forte, who is working his way back from a sore hamstring, will make things easier for New Yorks offense.Despite it being early in camp, the players are still striving for perfection.Every time we step on the field, especially in the competitive spirit, we want to win, Marshall said. We started off pretty good in the move-the-ball period and we actually scored, and then we came back the next two periods and it wasnt where we want it to be, but thats part of camp.Marshall credited Fitzpatrick with calming him down and the rest of the offense after practice.He was just telling us that this was still a successful day, when you look at the way we communicated and all of the learning lessons, Marshall said.He said there were a few things where we didnt connect on, but should have. But being able to sit down and watch film and work through those things is really vital to the growth of our offense.Game notes DL Sheldon Richardson returned to the team after missing the first four practices for personal reasons. ... CB Darrelle Revis (wrist) participated in team drills for the first time in camp, taking part in one session. We dont want to do too much with him, Bowles said. We just want to get his feet wet and get him used to moving around there again. ...
