Major development for the Blackhawks to acquire Leafs Mitch Marner

DailyFaceoff's Frank Seravalli recently discussed Mitch Marner's future with the Toronto Maple Leafs. His return isn't certain according to the NHL Insider.

There appear to be 5 major suitors for Mitch Marner's talents:

Of those 5 which include the Anaheim Ducks, New York Islanders, Pittsburgh Penguins and Utah HC, the Chicago Blackhawks are one.

Given that Marner has yet to draw up an NMC, it's hard telling where he will land, but given the Blackhawks want to improve offensively, as one of the bottom-dwelling teams in the league, signing Marner would be very helpful.

But, it depends upon where Marner's priorities lie, as the New York Islanders barely made it into the playoffs, and the Penguins were pushed out of a Wild card spot last season as well.
