Mitch Marner is now a member of the Las Vegas Golden Knights, and while the Toronto Maple Leafs got something out of it, tampering is still on the table.
Prior to the Toronto Maple Leafs and Las Vegas Golden Knights trade for Mitch Marner and Nicolas Roy, there were rumblings that the Leafs would go after the Knights for tampering.
This was quite the bombshell from Elliotte Friedman, and it immediately sent shockwaves throughout the National Hockey League.
However, on Monday, the Leafs and Golden Knights made peace, and now Marner will be in Las Vegas for the next eight years.
Will the Toronto Maple Leafs go after the Las Vegas Golden Knights?
However, there has still been some talk about tampering and if the Leafs would still pursue charges, especially after Marner's comments about the 4 Nations Faceoff.
According to Chris Johnston, however, fans should not expect anything to come of this. Instead, the Nicolas Roy deal has deterred the Leafs from saying anything.
I'd be surprised if it resulted in any kind of punishment; I don't believe the Leafs are pursuing that
While the NHL would like to make an example out of someone, that example is not going to come anytime soon.
Instead, Marner and the Golden Knights will get to enjoy what could be a long and fruitful relationship with one another. The fans are excited, and Marner is too.
Overall, things are going to get very interesting, and one has to wonder whether or not the Leafs or the Golden Knights will come out on top.
Based on the lack of playoff success, things could not get any worse for the Leafs. If anything, this is the perfect reset.
