The Vegas Golden Knights acquired star forward Mitch Marner from the Toronto Maple Leafs in a sign-and-trade deal. Marner signed an eight-year, $12 million per season contract extension with Vegas. The Knights traded center Nicolas Roy to Toronto to facilitate the acquisition. This move follows previous failed attempts by Vegas to obtain Marner, who had a career-best 102 points last season. Marner's decision avoids free agency and brings a top-line player to the Golden Knights.
