REPORT: Mitch Marner on the go?
According to insider Frank Seravalli, Toronto Maple Leafs star forward Mitch Marner is being linked to the Vegas Golden Knights for a trade.
The Leafs are reportedly in active discussions about trading their star winger. Despite attempts from both sides to shut down these rumours, the talks appear serious. Frank Seravalli from the DFO Rundown Podcast confirmed that the Maple Leafs are exploring trade options for Marner and are discussing with other teams to see what kind of deals they can make.
Trading Marner isn't simple due to several significant obstacles. Few teams are on Marner's list of acceptable destinations, and his $10.9 million salary cap hit is tough for many teams to accommodate. Additionally, the Leafs want valuable pieces in return, ideally an impact defenseman. Another challenge is Marner's no-move clause, which allows him to veto any trade unless the new team agrees to a contract extension, adding another layer of complexity to any potential deal.
The situation is uncertain. The Maple Leafs are actively exploring trade options for Mitch Marner, but several significant challenges could prevent a deal. Whether Marner stays in Toronto or moves to a new team remains to be seen.
Do you think Steve Yzerman should try to pursue him to help his offense and reach the playoffs?
