The date has been set for Mitch Marner‘s return to Toronto, but the ex-Leafs forward may be able to avoid any questions from the media at that time.

The date has been set for Mitch Marner’s return to Toronto for the first time since leaving the Maple Leafs to become a member of the Vegas Golden Knights.

What it won’t include, apparently, is any questions from the Toronto media for the former hometown favourite.

Per Dave McCarthy of NHL.com, Vegas takes on the Boston Bruins the night before the game in Toronto, which means no morning availability with players from the Golden Knights. McCarthy adds that potentially means no media availability for Marner at all.”Mitch Marner returns to Toronto on Friday January 23 with the Vegas Golden Knights.

Vegas plays in Boston the night prior on January 22 so there will be no morning availability in Toronto with Marner and potentially no availability at all.”

Maple Leafs Fans Have Every Right to be Bitter Over Marner’s Departure

If Maple Leafs fans didn’t have a bitter taste in their mouths over the way Marner left before this, ducking members of the Toronto media should do the trick. If the 28 year old wanted to try and mend the relationship with Leafs fans, avoiding questions from media certainly isn’t the way to do it.
