Former Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Carlo Colaiacovo praised Mitch Marner during "The First Up Podcast" on Thursday. Marner is in the fifth season of his six-year $65,408,000 contract signed in September 2019. He will be a free agent in 2025 if he does not get an extension from the Leafs.
In the podcast, Colaiacovo called Marner a great player and talked about his ability to impact games.
"I have always said that about Mitch Marner," Colaiacovo said. "And everyone always came after me. I am speaking in reality terms. He's a great player."
Aaron Korolnek responded to him and shared that he expects Marner to be part of the 4 Nation Face-Off roster.
"A superstar, superstar, and it's not a coincidence," Korolnek said. "He's going to be lined up next to Connor McDavid and Sidney Crosby in 4 Nations (Face-Off)."
