What's the problem in Toronto? Currently sitting in fifth place in the Atlantic Division despite playing a total of six games, the Maple Leafs have not been able to get their heads out of the water since their seven-game elimination against the Montreal Canadiens last spring.
It was informant Renaud Lavoie who reported the news on the set of the show JiC on TVA sports. According to what he saw and heard, the 24-year-old right winger is simply tired of wearing a Maple Leafs uniform, which could explain, at least in part, his recent lack of involvement...
Currently in the third season of a six-year contract and earning an average salary of $10,903,000 per year, Mitch Marner is slowly but surely seeing his name creep into trade rumours...
One thing is for sure, if a team decides to acquire him, they will have a very talented player on their hands, as Marner has no less than 359 points (including 103 goals) in 361 regular season games in the Bettman circuit. This young man has talent coming out of his ears. The only thing he lacks as of yet is the ability to take his game up a notch when the chips are down.
