David Pagnotta reports Leafs fielding multiple trade calls for Mitch Marner
Mitch Marner's departure from Toronto has seemed inevitable for weeks, and now the team is poised to initiate trade discussions.
After Mitchell Marner's latest playoff disappointment, patience in Toronto has run out. Since the Game 7 defeat, fans have anxiously awaited his departure. While the Maple Leafs organization has remained tight-lipped, David Pagnotta of the Fourth Period has confirmed that the team is now open to trade offers for the star forward, whose future may lie outside Ontario.
Lately, the Nashville Predators and Utah Hockey Club have emerged as the most interested parties, while the Seattle Kraken are also anticipated to join the fray for No. 16. Despite his playoff setbacks, Marner continues to excel as one of the NHL's top forwards during the regular season. Given these teams' need for star forwards, they appear logical as potential trade partners.
Regarding Toronto, the team faces significant needs in goal and on defense. If they receive a suitable offer for Marner, a potential trade could reshape their roster as they pursue a Stanley Cup under new Head Coach Craig Berube.
