It appears as though Mitch Marner's time in Toronto is coming to an end, and now reporters are looking into potential blockbusters for the star forward.

The Toronto Maple Leafs dropped game four at home against the Boston Bruins, and with the team facing a 3-1 deficit, the optimism is all but gone from the fan base. After years of playoff failures, they may look to blow it up this summer after struggling to find success with the core four, and it's Mitch Marner facing the most backlash.

After another poor performance and drama on the Maple Leafs bench, it appears he is outgrowing his welcome in Toronto, with reporter Nick Alberga already suggesting potential trades for No. 16.

Marner (with an extension) for Sorokin?

Alberga follows up this suggestion by claiming that the Islanders wouldn't be interested, but if they were, landing a Vezina calibre goaltender for Toronto would be a major win.

Weirdly, I don't think the Islanders would do it.

This isn't the first trade idea posed since their latest loss, as another reporter had this idea on social media;

A very smart hockey person put this in my head recently and I think this is the perfect time to float it:

To Utah: Mitch Marner

To Toronto: Clayton Keller

If Toronto do lose in the first round, big changes are coming, but with Marner's stock falling in recent times, it's tough to see where he would land.
