Marner is coming off a great season. In 82 games played, Marner tallied 26 goals and 68 assists. He posted a career high in both categories. With Marner having an outstanding season, he’s going to command quite a contract and he truly deserves it. But, the NHL of course has a salary cap, so that makes things rather challenging for clubs to give the world to their players. With that being said, it’s evident that both sides are far from resolution.
