Saros, Josi, and force O’ Reilly to come back. Sounds fair to me.

Well of course they are, but is Mitch interested in Nashville?
kingex11
All of Toronto will help him pack.
SalaciousPanda
Popped into the preds sub for a peek and they basically think the same things we do about him. He’s very very good regular season, soft and disappears in the playoffs, costs too much.
Having said that, a majority of the posts are halfway keen and mention saros.
Accomplished_Low148
I feel like I’m in the minority but I rather us get Askarov than Saros. Younger, cheaper and apparently has a super high ceiling.
Throw in a young player like Luke Evangelista and a first rounder like tanner Moldenyk + the 11m in cap savings and I think you got a great deal. Nashville is a popular city, they’re competitive, lowkey and can absord Marner’s cap hit. Win Win

I’d throw a catfish at him
Scazzz
We should send him to the Coyotes next year….
sokocanuck
Goalies never, ever, ever, ever return anywhere near a player like Mitch Marner. Ever.
And a 1st doesn’t even come close to bridging the gap.
If the Leafs are going to trade a piece like Marner for a goalie, they sure as shit better fix the defense, otherwise Saros will be run out of town in a year or two
At a MINIMUM they’d need to add Fabbro or Carrier or Lauzon and a 1st and they can take Kampf back as well.
COS89
There’s no one from Nashville I’d want to swap Marner for. Good players no doubt but outside of Saros, they have no one we really need and I wouldn’t just straight swap
Acrobatic_Law5598
Every team will show interest and he’ll make that team better. Such a shitty situation.
trinier101
I have a truck, will help him move.
moon_safari_
we need more than just a goalie for marner. I don’t care if the goalie’s elite.
TheDeek
He makes a lot of sense for Nashville. Very defensively responsible team that lacks some high end talent. Mitch is that, despite his playoff performance. Would also be nice to send him somewhere we’ll never hear about him.
ScienceNthingsNstuff
100% no. Goalies are too inconsistent to be confident that it’ll work out and goaltending wasn’t the major issue the past 2 years. It doesn’t solve our transition, goal scoring or special teams. Plus he only has 1 year left and will likely want a hefty pay raise so you get 1 year of cap relief.
I’d much prefer targeting a D or forward or a package of players+picks.
SadimHusum
Nashville rapidly turning into an ex-Leafs refugee camp, he’ll have RoR’s shoulder to cry on when someone mentions media coverage and gives him ‘nam flashbacks

Very Juuse
DessertRose17
I want Marner moved but that’s a trash deal for us. I don’t even think that’s close to value unless there are 2x 1sts attached or a real top 4 defender in his prime.
Anything short of a Sorokin/Shesty/Swayman and it’s not a fair 1for1.
BathroomSerious1318
I don’t think this is a good idea because Nashville makes the playoffs
How about Columbus?
ratedetar21
Going to love all these trade rumors for a guy with a NMC.
TiredReader87
Give us Saros and a D
BumpyMcPeen
Window is open as long as Matthews is here. Goaltender NOW
wesley-osbourne
Saros, O’Reilly, and Schenn!!
Fun-Firefighter1992
I’m 100% sure that the first he heard about this was seeing this headline too
sportsisgoodalsodogs
I don’t think this is it.
Sc00tzy
This is too funny. Everyone here shitting on marner for being the problem, useless, invisible in playoffs, locker room cancer etc, yet expecting to get a kings ransom for him. Which one is it guys?
TheLoomingMoon
If ROR did dip out because of the room, this would be hilarious
scarborough_bluffer
Remember…Predators move in flocks!
S_P_R_U_C_E
Only if we can somehow get Grabovski with this deal.
OkabesRazor
Saros while undeniably a number 1 is on a 1 year deal. I’d take him if they can re-sign him to a reasonable deal, under like 8 million. I’d need them to add on this deal though because Goalies are such voodoo and Saros is coming off a mediocre year. They add their 1st and Tomasino/Evangelista and I’d listen.
Shiny_Mew76
Of all teams to have interest in Marner, I did not expect Nashville. I would have expected a team like Chicago or Buffalo, who would like some extra help scoring.
Mediocre-you-14
ROR punching the air right now.
McJoe77
Ryan McDonagh makes 6.75 for the next 2 seasons, but I’d be very curious about a Saros, McDonagh, forward prospect, picks type package for Marner and maybe Kampf or Jarnkrok to toss some more salary out the door.
McDonagh is old and expensive, but he is a goddamn warrior and that kind of attitude and experience would be SO huge. See if they can sign Pesce after that and bring back Lilly and you can have Rielly with Pesce as the top pair and then McDonagh, McCabe, Benoit, and Lilly filling out the D with Saros and Woll behind them? That might be legit.
rascaldogg
Marner and Rielly for Josi and Saros
Excellent-Class-4897
Obviously if the leafs can do it it’s great, you get to dump a terrible contract at 11m a year is amazing on its own let alone getting assets for it? No Brainer here.
nrm34
Is there any chance Marner plays in Toronto next year? I know he has a no movement clause but it just seems like it’s over for him.
lent12
I’ve been saying Saros+Fabbro works.
All parties involved have 1 year left in their deals too.
Saros+Fabbro = $7.5M total too.
diecorporations
Absolutely yes if they get a real goalie.
123jazzhandz321
Saros + ROR + Schenn + 2025 protected 1st round pick for Marner + a couple bubble prospects

Saros
Woll

Thank God 🙏 lol 😅 anyone want jt, samsonov, lol
Complex_Mistake7055
There is no way trading Marner ages well. When he is scoring 100 points 4 years from now and the 2 defensemen and goalie the Leafs get are either run out of the league or are negative value assets this trade will look terrible.
Constant_Gur5530
Over half the teams in the league are interested in Marner. Soft as melted butter or not, the guy’s an elite player who puts up 100 points a season or close.
Benguy83
Think ROR would have input on it?
Drzhivag007
If I’m trading with Nashville it’s not for Sarros it’s for Roman Josi.
TheCarrier89
Saros ain’t enough. A good goalie means nothing if you have bad defense. If we trade Marner to Nashville, Josi better be the return.
Beavie_
Way back in NHL 21, in my career mode, one of the few I made it a long time with (Pandemic, am I right?) he signed with the Predators.
It was a sign.
Captain_Crank
Last time the Leafs traded for high end goalies we went for toskola and raycroft. I can see us getting burned again on a trade and Marner scoring 110 pts next year and a couple hatties against the Leafs. Just the way she goes lol
