After years of fantastic success in the regular season, the Maple Leafs may finally be fed up with Mitch Marner and his lack of production when it comes to the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
Following a first-round exit once again in 2024, Maple Leafs fans have called for Mitch Marner to be traded, and according to Frank Seravalli, that's the likely outcome this summer.
Seravalli has predicted a less than 5% chance that Marner will return as a Maple Leaf in 2024-25, and unsurprisingly, Elliotte Friedman believes all 29 teams will have some level of interest in him this off-season.
Marner may have a NMC and a desire to remain in Toronto, but if the team are looking to move on from him, there's little reason for him to stay.
Despite the negativity that comes with a poor playoff performance, Marner is still a fantastic regular season performer, and with free agency looming next season, it's safe to say that moving on may ultimately be the best move for both parties.
