This off-season has been a wild one thus far, and while Mitch Marner hasn't yet been moved by the Maple Leafs, the expectation from many is that he will be traded at some point. That almost happened earlier this off-season according to reports, with the Nashville Predators highly interested in the star forward.
The team would ultimately go on to sign Brady Skjei, Steven Stamkos and Jonathan Marchessault in free agency, but before that, former Marner teammate Ryan O'Reilly has revealed the rumours were indeed true.
As we know, the Predators ended up with three of the top free agents in this years class, and will now look to chase a Stanley Cup in the crowded Western Conference, while Marner remains in Toronto. It's unclear just how close things really came for Barry Trotz and the Predators, but this just shows how much interest there is in Marner league wide, so expect teams to look for a deal as the off-season rolls on.
