from the CP at TSN,
The 22-year-old opened his Marner All-Star Invitational on Thursday night just north of the city, and while the focus was on raising money for worthy causes, the conversation inevitably pivoted to negotiations between himself and the team.
"I'm just trying to stay away from the talk," Marner said. "I've been spending most of my summer up by the lake and relaxing.
"(My agent has been) dealing with everything and has done a great job."
Marner directed questions about contract talks to that agent, Darren Ferris, who was in attendance.
Ferris declined to comment.
"He's done this a lot longer than I have," Marner said. "I've got all my confidence in him."
