Mitch Marner signed with the Vegas Golden Knights primarily due to the team's successful history since entering the league and their competitiveness. He appreciated the quality of players involved and favorable living conditions, which he confirmed through conversations with other players. Marner and his agent discussed potential teams before he was informed about the deal with Vegas. Though contemplating free agency, Marner was pleased with how everything transpired, feeling it was a perfect fit for him and his family, leading to a swift negotiation with the team's management.
The winning regimen they've put up over the last five years, or really, since they entered the league, is attractive. They have such a competitive team every year.
I expressed to my agent that we had a couple of teams we really liked and looked forward to meeting and talking with.
I am open to doing this if we can find a way to do it. A couple of hours later, Kelly called me and said we have a deal going on.
The living arrangements, from talking to Pacioretty and Reavo over the last couple of weeks, seemed like everything was a pretty good fit for my wife, me, and our new son.
