NHL Analyst Puts Pressure on Maple Leafs Stars After Mitch Marner's Exit originally appeared on Athlon Sports. With Mitch Marner no longer part of the Toronto Maple Leafs, expectations will only grow for Leafs centerpieces Auston Matthews and William Nylander.

Alex Tuch, a two-time 30-goal scorer, is up after the coming season ($4.75 million cap hit) in Buffalo. Would Dallas have any interest in getting off the last two seasons of Tyler Seguin ($9.85 million cap hit) with a new Jason Robertson contract coming down the line, potentially? Jaden Schwartz has one year left with Seattle.

Mitch Marner has been dealt to the Vegas Golden Knights in a sign-and-trade, and the Maple Leafs have no time to lose in the hunt for his replacement. Of course, replacing Marner will be far easier said than done.
