The Leafs and Mitch Marner have been rumoured to be considering a mutual parting of ways all off-season thus far, and the Islanders in particular could use a winger of his calibre. Apparently, the two teams are discussing something big.
Noah Dobson and Matt Barzal may be one of the requirements for such a move, but both could be deemed untouchable, and whether or not the Islanders would like to pay the price if it involves one of those players is up for debate.
Ryan Pulock or Adam Pelech could be some of the secondary options needed to bring Toronto more defensive depth, but they are both 29 years old, which might not be the age Toronto is looking for if they want a 'relatively young' asset on the blueline.
Ilya Sorokin, who on a good day is one of the best goaltenders in a position Toronto desperately needs, is rumoured to be unhappy with his situation on Long Island. However, with his partner Varlamov getting up there in age, letting go of Sorokin could be a dangerous bet.
