Maple Leafs prospect Marner named OHL playoff MVP

The Ontario Hockey League can't contain Mitch Marner.

Marner's London Knights completed a four-game sweep of the Niagara IceDogs on Wednesday en route to an OHL championship, and the 19-year-old was named playoff MVP thanks to a 16-goal, 28-assist performance over 18 games.

Drafted fourth overall by the Toronto Maple Leafs in 2015, Marner is off to the Memorial Cup, where he's likely to play his final games with the Knights before making the jump to the professional hockey ranks next season.
