Maple leafs do nothing they will not make it far and Marner will go elsewhere and the Leafs will get nothing
The question really isn’t should Toronto move marner they probably have little choice. They can’t let him walk for nothing. Personally I don’t think Parayko and torochenko is enough and I’m a blues fan. I don’t see Armstrong doing anything for a one year rental. Thats not going to happen. Would marner be worth more at the deadline? Who knows but I think Toronto can get more than Parayko and torocheko for him not that these guys are quality players because they are.
Marner problem is his agent he wants him to go UFA next year
"Can't let Marner walk for nothing" isn't a thing. Sure they can. There will be several UFAs next offseason that his massive cap would accommodate. This is his last crack in Toronto….if he's a bust in the playoffs, the Leafs won't offer him more than he makes now….On purpose, so he walks.
Parayko, schenn , torps a pick maybe some retention😅 for marner, lilly and kampf
So I think Leafs could make this a larger deal. Robertson for Torpchenko. Marner for Jake Neighbors, prospect Otto Stenberg and the Blues 2025 1st round pick. If Leafs could get Pareyko for Liligren and Blues pick up $2M/yr on the contract then they should do it.
Marner is not waiving to go to St.Louis. He's not waiving to go anywhere. If he's gonna walk, it's on his own terms and time frame. And if he does leave as a free agent I bet he goes to a rival team. Just to rub it in on the people that gave up on him…
Canucks will miss the playoffs next season, the core likes to take a year off after having a good year. Boeser will never be the same, that needle got him.
blues fane here undervaluing parayko .. the leafs would have to thrown in a pick for a 1 v 1 for colt55 .. rhd D men like him are just as valuable as a guy like marner
Colt55 > Marner .. ill take the oak tree rhd with a cup and is a true one pairing over a skilled player like marner
Would love to see Marner walk from the Leafs next year. Why would he want to help a team that is trying to trade him away?
Buddy give it a rest. Blues aren't trading Parayko. Armstrong has said numerous times he's not trading him. Do some homework instead of recycling others bs articles.
Marner is a highly skilled player, and Leafs would lose any trade, but… too much salary on 4 players, the so called "core". Handcuffs the leafs on getting quality depth to the roster, which is vital to becoming a serious contender. Leafs definitely created this mess themselves. Time to trade Marner was last spring, before his no move clause kicked in on July 1/23. Now they have no control or leverage, Marner has all of it. Doubt he waives his no move. Weird how Leafs seem afraid to approach him even for a list of teams he might go to.
lol colt55 would leafs number dman instantly and fan fav .. it would have to be marner and 1st for colt55
Call crazy but I wouldn’t want marner for Parayko straight up. Parayko is a premier shut down 1d who eats tons of minutes and who’s shot if not accurate is scary.
At this point similar PLD when went LA.
I dont think Marner will waive his No Trade he will just spite put up 90+ pts walk free agency.
And teams he most likely would go to maybe low taxes,contenders,weather. Cant aquire him now big move needed cap wise. Or would just say lets wait til next years free agency aquire for free.
Would also love to see Boston screw up their relationship with Swayman. Bye bye Leafs, bye bye Bruins…enter NJ and 1 of Red Wings, Sabres, or Sens.
The Leafs have a history of bad trades and bad draft choices. Marner is a top playmaker, with a good playoff record; uninformed fans are the ones trying to move him, but Shanahan and gang are incompetent enough to make a trade involving some draft picks, which they can trade away or make bad picks. The Leafs without Marner are much weaker; it makes more sense to trade NYLANDER for a top goalie. Leafs have THREE SECOND-STRING GOALIES AND NO #1. STILL.
trade swayman
Let the leafs keep marner and see what they can get later. Many fans are totally delisional about the return.
If Marner refuses to waive then I would wait till the day after the trade deadline then send him at the AHL ,if they cant do that then stick him on the 4th line and make him a healthy scratch in the playoffs.
Detroit couldn't keep sprong they gotta give younger guys a chance #lgrw
Great report Mike!
Heh…..it's fun to yack about the hypothetical situations. Here's my thoughts:
1. Marner will play out his contract and walk leaving Leafs with NADA!!!! In the meantime….he will attract the ire of Leafs Nation, and he'll be hated and reviled for the rest of his life. He might as well leave the TO area and move to Yellowknife!!! He'll never get his # retired by Leafs.
He'll have another good regular season and then vanish like a fart in the wind come playoff time as he does every season.
Leafs will end up skunked in this mess.
Since the Leafs can't go back in time and sign better contracts, let's focus on the here and now. Bottom line is if the Leafs want to trade Marner they're going to have to accept the fact they're going to lose the trade no matter what. GMs know the situation they're in, and they aren't going to give up a ton to get him when they can wait and see if he walks next year and make him an offer. Winning the trade and getting assets isn't as important as what the Leafs could buy with the money they'll have. But at this point it's probably too late because the best UFAs are snatched up.
I'm surprised about Swayman is still unsigned.
