Jets sign Mario Ferraro to three-year contract

No more Mr. Knies guy, Mario Ferraro as a target, and 2nd round pick options: Leaflets
The playoffs march on, and with it, the inevitable Mitch Marner discourse. My two cents is that Mitch Marner and the Maple Leafs weren’t working. Marner, as the number two guy behind Auston Matthews in a high-pressure market in Marner’s hometown, was a lot to ask of him.
