Toronto Maple Leafs general manager Brad Treliving has just come through with a major revelation about Mitch Marner and his plans for free agency on July 1st.
Mitch Marner and his agent Darren Ferris have been pretty hush-hush about their plans for next week, although there have been plenty of rumors about what they have in store.
Having said that, we got a massive update from Maple Leafs general manager Brad Treliving. While speaking to Luke Fox of Sportsnet, he confirmed what we already knew. Marner is going to free agency.
Unless there's a significant change here, I would anticipate that he's going to hit the market.
Mitch Marner and the Toronto Maple Leafs have seemingly been on the outs ever since Game 7 of the second round against the Florida Panthers.
The Leafs got absolutely destroyed during that game, and Marner was destroyed on social media for his viral freakout at the Leafs' bench after going down 3-0.
Mitch Marner free agency options
The Los Angeles Kings, Florida Panthers, and Dallas Stars have also been considered as viable options to sign the winger to a large contract.
At this point, however, the whole league seems to be preparing for the Golden Knights to get one of the best right-wing players in the league.
While it would certainly suck to see Mitch go, these things happen, and it's not like no one could have predicted any of this would happen.
