Marner’s rematch with Vegas and homecoming at Scotiabank Arena loom as high-contrast fantasy nights; his creative brilliance should drive several premium outputs on this slate.

Marner’s departure from Toronto to Vegas signals a pivotal shift in both teams’ dynamics, with implications for fantasy value across the Maple Leafs and Golden Knights rosters.

Marner is used as a benchmark for Eichel’s value ceiling, with discussions suggesting Eichel could eventually surpass him. The comparison informs contract expectations and sets a reference point for how teams price elite centers against star wingers.

Marner remains a dynamic playmaker whose presence shapes Toronto’s offense and adds value to fantasy rosters through assists, points, and PP time.

Marner’s move to Las Vegas freed cap space that could enable a McDavid pursuit; Leafs’ core shift and a trend toward team-friendly deals create a window for a megadeal that could redefine the franchise.
