Brad Marchand is apparently a big fan of Mitch Marner 👀
Either Marchand is a big fan of Marner, or he’s rooting for a division rival to get into salary cap trouble. It’s always hard to tell with him.
Marner, who now has 24 goals and 81 points this season after a three point effort against the Oilers, is on pace to lead the Maple Leafs in scoring for the second year in a row. But with John Tavares signed for $11 million a season and Auston Matthews’ new deal worth $11.634 million per season, it’s widely expected that the Maple Leafs will try to sign Marner — a pending restricted free agent — for less than their centres.
“Nobody else is taking a discount. And now you’re asking to take one again? It’s nonsense,” Marner’s agent Darren FerrisThis story is far from over but with Marchand’s glowing endorsement, Marner has at least one pest in his corner.
