Host: “A.Ok. and I we’re speaking about Biznasty dropping what would might or might not be a nugget concerning the Leafs saying that the Leafs and Mitch Marner’s camp are speaking about a bit of factor often called a contract extension. A.Ok. is horrified by this prospect.”
A.Ok.: “I don’t consider it. I don’t consider it could possibly’t be true.”
Host: “You’ve, you’ve raised it beforehand mentioned, ‘Hey, why wouldn’t they be speaking extension? Possibly they’d be extra apt to increase him then to commerce him.’ The place are we at with this?”

Dreger: “Nicely, I feel the precise mechanics of an extension speak are a bit untimely. I do and, and, , that’s primarily based on speaking to high-level sources two days in the past, day and a half in the past in actual fact. Look, do I consider that they’re going to have interaction in contract discussions with Marner publish July 1? In fact I do. Yeah.
I imply, , the situations that might play out right here, , in a single, two or three, you guys can chart them as you see match. However a contract extension is without doubt one of the three situations. A commerce presumably is without doubt one of the situations. Mitch Marner beginning the season, enjoying out the ultimate 12 months of his contract is one other state of affairs.
However I can inform you with certainty that Brad Treliving and the Toronto Maple Leafs haven’t fixated on a kind of three simply but. It’s too quickly for that.
However earlier than you’ll be able to interact and actually make the choice that can hold commerce is the best choice, and we all know it’s going to be delicate due to the no-move clause, however that doesn’t stop Treliving from having legit conversations with different basic managers who might or might not have curiosity with , within the concept of buying and selling from Marner.
Earlier than you do this, don’t you need to discover out what the numbers appear like? You realize, what’s Mitch Marner in search of when it comes to long-term contract extension with the Toronto Maple Leafs? And I don’t, I don’t consider they’re there but. I actually don’t.
NHL Rumors: Mitch Marner, Nashville Predators, San Jose Sharks, and Trevor Zegras
However it’s, it’s one thing that has been mentioned internally. However I don’t assume they’ve gotten to a degree past perhaps preliminary dialog with Darren Ferris, the place they’re truly within the, within the bolts of negotiating an extension.”
