"There is no more excuse for the Leafs' bottom six to be on a budget"- Anthony Petrielli previews the Maple Leafs' offseason on Sportsnet 590
Briefly

Anthony Petrielli discusses the implications of Mitch Marner's possible departure from the Toronto Maple Leafs and the ongoing contract negotiations with John Tavares. He notes that Marner's likely signing with the Golden Knights would be less acceptable to fans compared to a move to a rival team within the division. Petrielli also reflects on Tavares' negotiations, expressing optimism about reaching an agreement, emphasizing that the player market is unstable during this period in the NHL calendar.
"I would view the scale as this: Anybody in the division would be nuclear - if it were Florida, or even Buffalo, then nobody would respect."
"There should probably be some self-reflection by the Marner camp, but I don't think there ever will be. That's what makes it not really matter where he goes."
