Overview
- Responding at NHL GM meetings, Brad Treliving said player care is the club’s top priority and that the team takes every precaution to keep players and families safe.
- Mitch Marner recently said his home address was posted online after Toronto’s second-round loss to Florida, prompting him to hire private protection for his family.
- Multiple reports describe a pattern of harassment toward Marner, including doxxing, objects thrown into his yard, and a death threat, with team security and local police involved.
- Marner’s move came via a July sign-and-trade to Vegas, where he signed an eight-year, $96 million deal with a $12 million cap hit, with Nicolas Roy going to Toronto.
- Treliving said Toronto will replace Marner’s contributions by committee and sees opportunity for depth additions and emerging players to take larger roles.
