Mitch Marner‘s future in the NHL could dictate many things in free agency this summer, and now, it appears a shock team has emerged as a contender to land him.
The Toronto Maple Leafs appear ready to lose Mitch Marner in free agency this summer, and before free agency officially opens, we’ve had plenty of reports around the superstar forward.
Every team from Vegas to Los Angeles, from Anaheim to Florida have been named as teams to watch for the star forward, with the belief around the league being that almost every team with cap space could be in on No. 16.
Now, Insider Elliotte Friedman has dropped a bombshell, revealing that the Utah Mammoth, after just one season in the NHL are ready to make a splash and land the superstar forward.
“If there is a one team everyone is watching and saying I’m really curious to see what they do it is Utah. teams believe that Utah is determined to introduce themselves to the NHL in a big way”
On top of that, they’ve already revealed they are open to moving the No. 4 overall pick in the 2025 NHL Draft, suggesting this is a team that wants to make a genuine impact in 2025/26, and while they may or may not land Marner, expect them to be in the bidding all the way until the end.
