Maple Leafs receive blockbuster trade proposal for star forward Mitch Marner
The Toronto Maple Leafs remain open to trading forward Mitch Marner, and reports indicate that the Carolina Hurricanes are proposing a major blockbuster deal.
Although the summer's chaos has subsided, speculation persists about the futures of Mitch Marner in Toronto and Martin Necas of the Carolina Hurricanes. Both players might be traded before the 2024/25 season kicks off, with recent reports indicating that Carolina has made a significant offer for Marner.

Reports suggest that Necas is seeking more than $9 million AAV on a long-term contract. However, given his underwhelming production relative to expectations, it's understandable why the Hurricanes might be hesitant to meet his demands. With John Tavares potentially hitting free agency in the summer of 2025, acquiring a young center could be a crucial move for the Maple Leafs' future. Yet, with Marner holding a No-Trade Clause, he still has control over his destination.
The same report also indicates that Mitch Marner is seeking $13 million per year on his next contract. Considering his performance in the playoffs, this asking price might compel Brad Treliving to make a decision.

It's uncertain how advanced the negotiations are between the two sides, but with both teams aiming to trade their key players, a deal remains a strong possibility.
