Don’t really want to turn it into a Marner thread but he was a Selke finalist and is routinely considered one of the best defensive forwards in the league. Usually leads the leafs in PK time. Particularly for offensively gifted players he is one of the best defensive forwards in the NHL.

Below is the Marner piece from an article on the top 5 defensive forwards in the league. Bleacher report had him second, not sure he is that high but he is elite.
People forget Marner was a finalist for the Selke two seasons ago and Matthews last year. Both are high end defensive players.
