NHL Rumor: Mitch Marner could join Golden Knights or Kings soon (Image Source: Getty Images) Big news may be coming soon in the NHL. Toronto Maple Leafs star forward Mitch Marner could be looking at a major move this summer. While no trade has been made yet, new reports suggest that Marner is considering a few teams. Fans are now wondering what this means for his future in Toronto. The buzz is growing day by day. Mitch Marner is looking at new teams including Vegas and Los Angeles O n May 31, 2025, NHL insider Dave Pagnotta shared an important update about Mitch Marner on The Fourth Period. He reported that Marner has made a list of seven or eight teams that he would be willing to join if the Maple Leafs decide to trade him. The two top teams on this list are the Vegas Golden Knights and the Los Angeles Kings. According to Pagnotta, 'Marner has his eye on some strong markets, and both Vegas and LA are near the top.' He mentioned that these cities offer big fan bases, great team structure, and the kind of spotlight Marner may enjoy. Marner has one year left on his current contract with Toronto. He also holds a no-movement clause, which means the team needs his approval before any trade. His cap hit is $10.9 million, which makes things tricky, but many clubs are still interested. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với sàn môi giới tin cậy IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo Also Read: Mitch Marner Prepares To Leave Toronto With List Of Preferred NHL Teams: Report San Jose Sharks, Columbus Blue Jackets, and Anaheim Ducks are preparing large offers Besides the two top teams Marner prefers, other teams are also getting ready.

These teams may not be title contenders right now, but they have young talent and cap space. San Jose is believed to be very active. A team source told the site, 'We're watching the Marner situation closely. He could help us rebuild fast.' Anaheim also has the budget and future draft picks to make a big deal work. The Columbus Blue Jackets are reportedly thinking of adding veterans to guide their younger players. Marner's experience could be valuable in that setup. 'He's still young, but he has the skill and leadership we need,' one Eastern Conference executive told The Fourth Period. For now, Mitch Marner is still with the Maple Leafs. But based on these new talks, the coming weeks could bring big changes. Stay tuned as teams line up with interest and offers.

'That's a win!': Hockey world reacts to Edmonton Oilers trading for top, young d-man
News broke online from the Fourth Period's David Pagnotta that San Jose and Edmonton were working on a trade that would see Edmonton pick up d-man Jake Walman. 'We'll see if it gets over the finish line,' said Pagnotta. The hockey world reacted fast and furiously. Here are some of the highlights: Hockey cap website PuckPedia @PuckPedia Walman is in Year 2/3 $3.4M Cap Hit/ Of note, San Jose Sharks have no retention spots remaining. He has a salary of $3.3M next year. If a third team retained, they would pay the retained % of the $4.06M in salary remaining on his deal The Athletic's Dom Luszczyszyn @domluszczyszyn Jake Walman has been a bright spot for the Sharks this year. A bit of a surprise to see him moved, but a great get for the Oilers. The Fourth Period's David Pagnotta @TheFourthPeriod Walman is indeed going to Edmonton. The return is not yet confirmed, but chatter of a 1st round pick going to SJ… Walman has been informed he's being traded to Edmonton. There might be a small caveat that holds it up, but assuming that is smoothed out, this should get finalized. The Daily Faceoff's Frank Seravalli @frank_seravalli Sounds like #Oilers have some roster constraint issues (tonight's lineup was an adventure) and rosters expand after midnight tonight. So, Edmonton is on their way to completing a deal to acquiring Walman, but may be some time before they can complete/ announce it. Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman @FriedgeHNIC This one is moving along: the Pride of Armour Heights to Edmonton. Hockey commentator Mike Bartner @MikeBartner Walman really isn't a good fit for the Oilers needs, but man they don't grow 2nd pair right handed DFD's on trees, so you gotta take what you can get. Also he has another year at just $3.4M. Daily Faceoff hockey writer Steven Ellis @SEllisHockey Oilers fans are going to really like Jake Walman. TSN's Ryan Rishaug @TSNRyanRishaug Sounds like it'll be a conditional pick and a prospect for Walman once it gets finalized. Also looking like Oilers may be taking the full cap hit confirming the sense we had earlier today that they'd most likely be using the Kane money. Could be a bit before all is sorted. Allan 'Lowetide' Mitchell of The Athletic @Lowetide I like the trade. Bigly Hockey stats analyst PAVEL Analytics powered by TDDT @TData_5115 Walman is a solid enough defenceman who hasn't had the best last two years due to poor schemes under (Detroit coach) Lalonde, and San Jose being, well, San Jose. Look for him to bring those defensive numbers up with a change of scenery, while the offence cools off without the PP. San Jose hockey commentator Drew Remenda on Sports 1440 in Edmonton He has been their best defenceman all year. He has improved his play. He gets back to pucks quicker than he did before. He can PK. He was on the PP and has a bomb of a shot. He is physical, block shots. He has really improved his play Philadelphia hockey writer Kevin Kurz @KKurzNHL Is the Sharks' plan to just be god awful for the next 4 years? Hockey stats analyst JFresh @JFreshHockey Jake Walman, acquired by EDM, is an offensive defenceman. Has a big point shot and loves to use it. Good puck mover with a nice stretch pass. Can be a bit turnover prone, not particularly physical. Has had an impressive season all things considered as SJ's #1 Hockey stats analyst Golden Era Hockey @NHLGoldenEra Jake Walman is a legit top pair D. This addition is at least on par with the Ekholm add in 2023 in my opinion. Very curious on the return… Oilers fan Karman Gill @Kgill39 That's a win for Edmonton!! Nice job by Bowman·… I don't think anyone could've guessed Oilers would be getting Jake Walman or that San Jose would move him
