Mitch Marner would play well on a team that may have generational offensive talent on the backend. If a team had an elite offensive dman who would join the rush and has scored at every level that guy would completely pop with Marner. Marner would also play well with any shooter that has a great shot (Coronato, Sharnagovich) probably being able to set those guys up as well. Marner would also provide a major boost for the powerplay. When you add that he is arguably the best defensive winger in the NHL it seems like a no brainer to at least try to get him.
If you can't see that Marner's totals are inflated due to playing with Matthews & Nylander, I don't know what to tell you.

Parekh might become a Hughes or Makar level defenseman, then again he might not. You can't just assume he will, and build a team around that assumption. Besides, if Parekh is as good as you say he is, any player brought in will benefit from playing with him.
