Marner seemed OK with all of that in the early days of his Leafs career. He earned rave reviews from the Boston Bruins after his second playoff series in 2018, when he shined with nine points in a seven-game loss. He piled up 94 points, the most by a Leaf in more than 20 years, as a 21-year-old a season later.

The Toronto Maple Leafs might carry a rather different roster into the 2024-25 season after another playoff collapse. The biggest pending free agent currently on the team is star winger Mitch Marner, who will enter free agency on July 1.

Tyler Yaremchuk and Frank Seravalli were talking on Daily Faceoff Live about the possibility of the Toronto Maple Leafs trading rights to Mitch Marner before unrestricted free agency opens on July 1st.
