67 pts in 59 games is not himself? Last season he had, what, 92 pts? This year if he played 82 games he would've had 93.

I think the blame has to be on Marner & his camp for wanting as much money as they did.

lol agreed. Love Marner the player, hate his contact. Waited so ****in long for the Leafs to have players like Nylander, Matthews, and Marner, on the Leafs, I would hate to see one of them traded. I'd rather Dubas find value contracts than trade one of these guys.

That is how good Marner actually is haha. Most Leafs fans would agree that he has another gear.

People get thrown off by the contract, but at the end of the day he makes any team significantly better

Exactly. You have to overpay extremely good players by a lot before you actually start losing overall value on the player.

It has been speculated that teams aren’t willing to give up assets for him.

What’d you guys think of this team? Are they a contender?

They're further away from contention than they were before all these trades.

Also 5.5Mx5 on Hyman? Ouch.

They certainly lost value just based on the term and AAV they got but they are still extremely valuable pieces.

Sure but he still brings positive value to the team based off of his on ice abilities even if he is overpaid a bit. Star players have such a big impact on the game that's its actually hard to overpay them. Personally I think marner is worth 11 or 12 million but because his comparables have signed for around 9.5 hes overpaid but realistically it's the other players that are underpaid.

Giving 11 mil to Marner after just 1 elite season when the vast majority of first liner wingers made a few mil less was a dumb idea. Not trying to move Marner

And rightly so. TOR would need to retain at least 1,5 mil. Maybe 2 mil even

@MitchMarnerElite "The rumour was that the Leafs front office & coaching staff is sick of Marner’s antics but there are not any teams that want to acquire him. So if they want to get rid of him, they have to hope there is a CBO or they expose him to Seattle."


please show me this rumour and the source

you sent away Marner for nothing so you could pay Connor brown and Mackenzie weegar

Sens aren't giving Brown Back.

67 pts in 59 games is not himself? Last season he had, what, 92 pts? This year if he played 82 games he would've had 93.

I don't understand all this love for Weegar. And if he's that good, why does Florida trade him. It's kind of a unpractical scenario to have a player sign a "show me contract" which brings him so close to UFA.
Marner to Seattle. Actually I don't mind it...with the following conditions. First try to trade him in needed for a "fair return" including futures. I see the purpose of leaving him exposed and he's claimed because then the Leafs would have close to 11m to spend elsewhere. Assuming they can spend 11m better than Marner.

Are they contenders? It's hoping that some players are unexpected better than what should be expected. I think it's time to move on from Andersen.
You have a cap of 88m. I think salaries will be based on that. Then every player takes a 33% pay cut because the "actual" cap based on revenues will be 60m in 21/22

Weegar is a legit top pair shutdown defenseman who can move the puck. A Hyman-Kerfoot-Brown shutdown line would be perfect for Toronto.

His comparables all got 7 million x 3 years - Leafs have essentially overpaid Marner x 3 million in those first 3 years as the cap was slated to rise significantly (around 90 million) when his comparables are all up for resigning - theoretically Marner would be at the 11 mark for an additional 3 years while his comparables that took bridge deals would be commanding around the 12/13 mark as they'd be negotiating a percentage of cap and with cap hitting the high mark it was projected at the time would be priced higher than Marners current deal. That is thought process with Marner signing - Dubas certainly had a 3 year option at around the 7/8 mark but would have just pushed the cap issue down the road

I think you have to understand that no GM may not want to take on ALL of Marner's contract. Assuming either Toronto eats some of it OR they take back some cap there will be a lineup of team willing to take Marner on.

So this idea that no team is willing to take him on simply doesn't make sense. Two teams actively traded for Dion Phaneuf........... After he stopped being good................... I think teams can work out a way to take on Marner.

That's all assuming Leafs front office even want to trade Marner which I don't think they do, unless a fair value trade is offered in which they have to explore it.

If I were Montreal I would gladly take Marner off your hands for free, right now.

Ok buddy. Hes overpaid by 1.5 million relative to his comparables. None of the the stuff you mentioned will happen, hes still an elite player

hyman will be taking a tanev deal as he mentioned many times he isnt in it for the money, he is in it to play hockey
