Mitch Marner has been enjoying the sun and sand at this year's NHL all-star festivities.
The Maple Leafs winger will need his winter coat if he makes the cut next year.
"I asked Mitch how old he was for that one and he was quite young," Shanahan said. "He didn't remember, so I lied to him and told him I won the car -- wasn't true.
"I remember the excitement and the buzz in the city. Any time that you're in Toronto for a hockey game -- especially something like the all-star game -- you can feel the excitement."
"The city's gonna be loving this," Marner said. "We're gonna be getting all the best players in the world in the same place at one time. Just seeing how the NBA all-star game was, I'm sure the NHL one's gonna be even bigger.
"Fans are gonna love it."
