Toronto Maple Leafs are reportedly interested in bringing in a Carolina Hurricanes star to join Auston Matthews for the 2024-25 NHL season, amid uncertainty over Mitch Marner's future.
It seems as though Mitch Marner is closing in on free agency this offseason, while the Maple Leafs could have a back-up plan if that happens.
As Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman explained on an episode of the "32 Thoughts" podcast, if Rantanen is dealt again, an acquiring team could only take on a $2.3 million cap hit if the Hurricanes retain half of Rantanen's already-reduced salary.
