Looks like the Marner camp may be looking in the vicinity of a short-term deal rather than long-term one:

"...the Marner camp is looking at the idea of the merits of a four- or five-year deal when it?s time to negotiate as opposed to a maximum or longer term deal. And that is obviously quite interesting. It?s probably not what the Leafs want, that?s for sure. Especially, a four-year deal because that would walk Marner right into ufa (unrestricted free agency). How much would a four or five-year deal cost instead of a max deal? My sense is they think it?s somewhere between $9-10 million based on the season that he is having right now."
