Nicolas Roy is a solid third-line center who will help the Leafs and represents maybe the best-ever return in a sign-and-trade deal.

The Toronto Maple Leafs and Las Vegas Golden Knights are engaged in "ongoing" discussions regarding a Mitch Marner sign-and-trade, according to TSN's Darren Dreger.

In 2015, when Mitch Marner was drafted fourth overall by the Toronto Maple Leafs, his head coach, Mike Babcock, didn’t want him. Babcock wanted a defenseman, like Noah Hanifin or Ivan Provorov, after the team’s brutal 68-point campaign in 2014-15.
