Addressing ongoing speculation, GM Brad Treliving urged caution regarding rumors about Marner. Speaking to media members at the NHL combine, Treliving stated, “The thing I would say is, be very, very careful of what you read out there. Mitch is a hell of a player. He’s going into the last year of his contract.
We’re not going to comment on any players. Any business that we conduct, we’ll do that between Darren Ferris and us. We’re not going to do play-by-play on it.”
Despite the speculation, Treliving reaffirmed the franchise’s commitment to exploring all avenues to improve during the offseason. “We’ve got to look at every possible way for our team to be better.
Mitch controls a lot of this whole thing. If there’s a way to make our team better, we’re going to do it. But we’re certainly not going to make a trade just so we can pound our chest and say, ‘Look, we’re different.’”
