Mitch Marner’s history with Toronto runs deep. Growing up in the Greater Toronto Area, Mitch has played his entire career in Southern Ontario – from his early years with the Vaughan Kings, Don Mills Flyers, and St. Michael’s Buzzers, then on to the London Knights. It was a dream come true when Mitch heard his name called by the Toronto Maple Leafs in the 2015 NHL Entry Draft as the fourth overall pick.

Outgoing, charismatic, and energetic, Mitch brings a rare combination of skill and personality to the NHL. As part of a young and exciting Toronto Maple Leafs, Mitch is looking to bring his winning ways to one of the most storied franchises in sports.
