Negotiations between the two parties have been going on all summer, and that after William Nylander last year and Auston Matthews earlier this year extended their contract with the club.

Now the 22-year-old forward gets just over $ 104 million per season for six years, making him the third best-paid player in Toronto. Matthews has an annual salary of just under SEK 112 million while John Tavares draws in just under 106 million. Nylander is four on the list, with just under SEK 67 million.

Following Marner's contract, much is said that other contractless stars will learn to sign new agreements soon, including Finns Patrik Laine, Winnipeg, and Mikko Rantanen, Colorado.

Mitch Marner has during his three seasons with Toronto accounted for 224 points in 241 matches.
