Toronto Maple Leafs forward Mitch Marner has a big decision to make this summer, but based on all of his comments, it seems clear what he wants to do.
Mitch Marner is the highest-profile free agent this summer, and there is a lot of fanfare pertaining to where he is going to sign.
Overall, some fans are hopeful that he will stay in Toronto. However, there are other fans out there who are ready for him to walk away from the team, for good.
Ultimately, there is going to be a lot of media coverage on this decision. Even today, reporters tried to get some information out of Marner.
However, he was pretty tight-lipped about things. He said he loves it in Toronto, but still needs to talk to his wife about what his future will be.
Mitch Marner says things are still too fresh after losing Game 7. Isn't ready yet to comment on his future. Needs to sit down with his wife and discuss it all over next couple of weeks.
Based on the fact that he has been speaking a lot in the past tense, there are a lot of fans who believe he is gone and that there is nothing the team can do to keep him here.

Of course, there are plenty of teams out there who would love to sign a guy like Marner. After all, he had 100 points this season.
Teams that are on the outside looking in, like the Columbus Blue Jackets and Chicago Blackhawks, would love a guy like Marner on the team.
Only time will tell what happens next and whether or not the forward gets a contract over $12 million per year. After his ghostly performance in the playoffs, he doesn't deserve it.
However, there is one team out there who is desperate enough to overpay.
