At a time where the craziness of the NHL Draft and Free Agency has subsided, and we wait for training camp to open, there has been some substantial news regarding the future of Mitch Marner.
Necas, 25 has underperformed given his potential which has led the Hurricanes to potentially move the young centre as his asking price of 9M AAV may be too high for the 'Canes to accept. The 25-year-old potted 24 goals and added 29 assists while going -9 +/- for Carolina.
Marner, 27 is expected to command an astounding 13M AAV when he signs his next contract, which undoubtedly could cause a shake-up for the Leafs no matter where they sit in the standings. Marner shined this season picking up 26 goals and 59 assists while maintaining a +21 +/- for Toronto.
