Maple Leafs Get Reality Check After Mitch Marner's Exit originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Toronto Maple Leafs haven’t done much to offset the loss of star forward Mitch Marner, and it’s already costing them in perception.

The Vegas Golden Knights have acquired Mitch Marner in a sign-and-trade with Toronto Maple Leafs. That's according to a person with knowledge of the move who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because it had not been announced.

The deal materialized after days of speculation about a trade involving Marner’s rights and after multiple previous failed attempts.
