The Golden Knights have acquired Mitch Marner, freshly signed to an eight-year deal, worth $12M AAV ($96M total).

By acquiring Marner's rights, the Golden Knights were able to secure an eight-year contract worth $12M AAV before free agency opened on July 1st. Marner entered the league as a 19-year-old in the 2016-17 season and played the entirety of his nine-year career with the Toronto Maple Leafs, being amongst the league leaders over that time with 741 points (221G / 520A) in 657 games. The 28-year-old Marner will be motivated to continue his point-per-game production with a new team, likely playing alongside Jack Eichel.

Marner was not at practice on Monday due to a lower-body injury that kept him out of the lineup in Saturday's 3-2 victory over the Montreal Canadiens.
