Tavares has been on the ice for 62 EV goals against, -3. He's no defensive wizard by any stretch. To say he's never a defensive liability is laughable.
There's plenty of PPG players and not all of them make 11 million a year. I'm not saying Tavares is a bad player. I'm saying if somebody is going to poop on Marner for his play because of his contract, they should be poopting on Tavares too if they're using the same criteria and aren't being bias.

Marner doesn’t play with Tavares so Tavares canmatchup against the other teams top lines....
