After another disappointing playoff run, Mitch Marner's tenure with the Toronto Maple Leafs appears uncertain, with top insiders revealing slim odds of his return next season.
Changes in the Maple Leafs' off-season
The Maple Leafs' off-season has seen significant changes, including the hiring of Craig Berube as head coach. Many expect a major move involving Marner, with NHL Insider Frank Seravalli shedding light on the situation.

Trade considerations and Marner's NMC
As an unrestricted free agent in a year, it makes sense for the Maple Leafs to consider trading Marner to address other roster needs. However, they must also navigate his no-movement clause (NMC).
Whether Marner will waive his NMC remains unclear, and it's uncertain if the team has approached him about it. Yet, indications suggest a move is likely.
Despite the speculation and negative attention, Marner remains a valuable asset for the Maple Leafs. As the off-season progresses, the situation will likely develop, potentially leading to Marner joining a new team for the 2024-25 season.
