Nashville Predators GM Drops Bombshell Response to Mitch Marner Query

When questioned about Maple Leafs player Mitch Marner,

Alex Daugherty: Nashville Predators general manager Barry Trotz, given that they have a good amount of salary cap space to work with this offseason. **

Transcription from NHLRumors.com Reporter: “With—I haven’t done the math precisely, but something like that left with, like, $25 million.” There are, after all, quite a few well-known names. Mitch Marner is among them.

Now that you have the funds to sort of take that on, is that a name you would look at? Is that what that name is? “I don’t think Mitch is a free agent,” said Trotz. Reporter:

“I don’t think Mitch is a free agent,” said Trotz.

Reporter: “All right. He recently entered the trade.

Trotz: “I’ve just been, that would be a,..”

Reporter: “All I’m saying is that there had been trade talks.”

Trotz: “Yeah, I see. No. Well, they really must speak with me. I haven’t spoken with them yet, so.

Reporter: “All right.

Trotz: “Not that I’m aware of.” But you and I both read the same books. That is only hearsay.

Michael Gallagher: “It seems like the McDonagh trade is a prelude to Barry Trotz’s aggressive pursuit of a high-end scorer after speaking with a few people.” Now, the fans of Mitch Marner will be unbearable.

Instead of Mitch Marner, the Toronto Maple Leafs were concentrating on a coach.

Pierre LeBrun: It’s understood that as of Tuesday, the Toronto Maple Leafs had not discussed forward Mitch Marner with any teams. The hiring of a head coach had been the Leafs’ first priority.

Trade negotiations have not taken place, but we shall see what transpires over the next two months. As the NHL draft nears at the end of June approaches, teams will be contacting the Leafs regarding Marner.
