00:00One of the bigger moves being reported thus far, the Toronto Maple Leafs trading Mitch Marner to the Vegas Golden Knights, who's also getting a new contract extension.
00:10What does this move mean in terms of making the Golden Knights better?
00:15We know that, Joe, they fell short this past season.
00:18They've been very competitive since coming into the league several years ago.
00:20Does this make them much better?
00:23Oh, it absolutely does.
00:24Mitch Marner is a fantastic player out there, and I do think you'll be able to get over that playoff hump.
00:29And that's the struggles we did see with him with Toronto.
00:33He just wasn't able to show up in the playoffs, but the team as a whole wasn't able to get there either.
00:37So I do think Mitch Marner coming here to Vegas, he's going to have to show up right away.
00:41Not like when he first joined the Toronto Maple Leafs where there was a time gap where he was able to get a little bit of reprieve.
00:48I think here in Vegas, the ownership is going to want him to show up big, and he will show up big for this team.
00:55And he's going to have such a better work lifestyle out in Vegas.
00:59As you look at the Toronto media, they're so hard on those players.
01:03And in Vegas, he's going to be able to raise his family, walk those streets without having media all over him.
