Excuse the title to co-opting the common refrain about what any hockey news might mean as spun for the self-centered Toronto Maple Leafs, but the questions about Mitch Marner are starting to swirl. Maybe it’s just the down week and the media needs something to talk about (play the hits!), and nothing draws like palace intrigue in Toronto. Given the connections, possible wishful thinking and possible just making conversation, the stray thought has crossed the internet here and there about what the chances would be for Pittsburgh to get involved.
The Mitch Marner saga is far from over.
