Leafs to potentially part ways with Mitch Marner according to Friedman
Elliotte Friedman, a well-known insider, dropped a hint about a potential big trade involving Toronto Maple Leafs' star player, Mitch Marner, during an appearance on Sportsnet's 590 The Fan. He suggested that Marner might be on the trading block for the Maple Leafs this offseason.
Marner has faced criticism for his performance in the playoffs, with many finding it underwhelming.
This has sparked talks about the possibility of him being traded instead of signing a contract extension with the team.
Friedman emphasized that several factors, including Marner's performance, his contract negotiations, and the potential benefits of a trade, would influence any decision.
He also drew a comparison between Marner and Elias Pettersson of the Vancouver Canucks, noting similarities in the pressure they face from their respective markets. Friedman suggested that Marner's self-imposed pressure might be hindering his performance.
Given these factors, the question arises: Should Brad Treliving, the Maple Leafs' general manager, seriously consider trading Mitch Marner this summer?
