The Vegas Golden Knights look like winners of the NHL offseason after managing to swing a sign-and-trade for Mitch Marner, who was widely viewed as the crown jewel of the players set to be available this summer.

Mitch Marner, the NHL's top 2025 unrestricted free agent, is off the list after being traded to the Vegas Golden Knights and agreeing to a contract.

The Vegas Golden Knights have acquired Mitch Marner in a sign-and-trade with Toronto Maple Leafs. That's according to a person with knowledge of the move who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because it had not been announced.
