The latest twist in the ongoing breakup between Mitch Marner and the Toronto Maple Leafs appears to have hit the non-profit sector.According to YYZSportsMedia's Jonah Sigel, Marner's charity — known as the Marner Assist Foundation — is cancelling its annual summer event in Toronto, originally set for next month."After thoughtful consideration, we have made the difficult decision to cancel this year's event, scheduled for July 10 and 11. The uncertainty around Mitch's summer schedule makes it challenging to plan responsibly. Out of respect for the time and commitment of our partners and supporters, we feel it's best to make this decision now," the statement read as shared by Sigel. "While we are disappointed not to come together this year, the Foundation will continue to honour all its commitments to charitable partners. We remain deeply grateful for the community."Multiple reports have suggested that conversation has ceased be...

Mitch Marner and the Toronto Maple Leafs appear to be in the silent treatment portion of what's looking like a messy breakup between the star and the team.According to Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman on the latest edition of the 32 Thoughts podcast, the two parties aren't exactly on speaking terms, with Marner slated to hit free agency next month."Marner's camp is not engaged with [the Leafs]. And I think everybody knows the way this is going to be heading — that on July 1, he's gonna go out there, he's going to hit the market, he's going to pick a team, he's going to set a contract, and he's not coming back to Toronto," Friedman said.The sports journalist added the Anaheim Ducks, Carolina Hurricanes, Los Angeles Kings and Vegas Golden Knights as possible teams interested in Marner, who is coming off a six-year deal worth $10.93 million USD per season.FanDuel Sports Network's Andy Strickland had...

1 week ago Toronto Maple Leafs could lose one of biggest stars to playoff rival

Could we wind up seeing Toronto Maple Leafs forward and pending UFA Mitch Marner take his talents down south?The 28-year-old is set to become a free agent on July 1, and should that happen, there will be a ton of teams interested. Coming off of a career-high 102-point season, Marner is expected to get paid a handsome amount, and while it remains to be seen where he ends up, it sounds as though the Florida Panthers will be making a big push.It may even come before he hits free agency."There's real smoke that the Florida Panthers could be gearing up to make a run at Marner. Word is that Toronto has opened the door to a sign-and-trade scenario, where they ink Marner to a max-term extension (eight years) and then flip him to recoup some level of value," Cam Robinson on Elite Prospects wrote in a recent column.The Panthers would undoubtedly be a team Marner would love to join, as they are currently going up against the Edmonton Oilers in what is their third straight Stanley...
