US EditionMitch Marner Mum on Maple Leafs Future; John Tavares ‘Optimistic’ on New Contract

- Marner, 28, who grew up near Toronto and has spent his entire nine-year career with the Leafs as part of the high-paid 'Core Four', expressed he will discuss next steps with his family.
- John Tavares, also without a contract beyond 2024-25, remains optimistic about returning to Toronto after discussing terms with management and coach Craig Berube, who wants both players back.
- Marner's potential free agency could make him the most notable unrestricted player since Tavares and Panarin in recent years, signaling significant implications for the Leafs' roster and cap space.
