Extending Mitch Marner during the regular season is a commitment to mediocrity. Look, I’m not saying that a Mitch Marner extension is a bad thing or harms the teamm and I want to be very clear that this has nothing to do with Mitch Marner as a person or a player.

Asked about the state of extension talks with not only Marner but John Tavares and pending RFA Matthew Knies earlier this month, Leafs GM Brad Treliving said, “Those are things that we always are looking at and talking about and rumbling around, but nothing to report right now.”

With the 4 Nations Face-Off quickly approaching, William Nylander has fired a playful little warning shot at Maple Leafs teammate Auston Matthews. This

If there is one trade that has shocked many, it is that of Mikko Rantanen. Seeing that the Colorado Avalanche received not only Martin Necas, but also Jack Drury, Taylor Hall, and a few draft picks must please the club.

Auston Matthews and William Nylander have been Toronto Maple Leafs teammates for nine seasons. They've displayed elite chemistry throughout their time together.

There are two possible worlds for Marner. He goes to the 4 Nations Face-Off and dominates, the Leafs take a couple of rounds, he’s just as good at the Olympics and everybody agrees it was a near miss with that guy. The other world is more of the same.

Leafs star Mitch Marner is in the midst of one of his best seasons, and the 27-year-old was the catalyst of a 5-3 victory over the Lightning.

As Bissonnette explained on Tuesday, the Maple Leafs should pursue the signing of new Carolina Hurricanes forward Mikko Rantanen if he gets to free agency and Toronto lets Mitch Marner walk.

Oilers forward Leon Draisaitl earned No. 1 status on the strength of an outstanding first four months of the season after signing an eight-year, $14-million AAV extension that will almost certainly make him the highest-paid player in 2025-26.

The Toronto Maple Leafs are reportedly interested in signing the soon-to-be free agent Brandon Saad. The forward has been going through a rough season with the St.

BOTTOM LINE: The Toronto Maple Leafs look to stop a three-game skid with a win against the Edmonton Oilers. Edmonton is 18-8-2 in home games and 32-15-4 overall. The Oilers are 17-5-3 in games their opponents commit more penalties.

Auston Matthews being named Team USA captain comes as no great surprise but it is a testament to his health as he's looked better in January than any other month this season.
