Leafs have absolutely no incentive to make this kinda deal. Marner is staying, he's a over ppg player that hasn't even reached his prime on a contending team. You've offered 2 slightly above average players that really don't fit in Toronto. Rakell would take Marner's spot and is a massive downgrade from Marner. So it's basically giving up Marner for a glorified d-man who's had 1 good season in his career and the rest are average. Just because he shoots right, doesn't mean Toronto wants him. Dubas has made that more than clear. For his price tag and fact that he'd walk in a couple seasons, that's an easy no.

Anaheim doesn't have the assets to pry Marner outta Toronto. It would take quite the overpayment and would start with Lindholm and a 1st. Anaheim probably adds a pretty good prospect in the deal too.

I get your speaking hypothetically here, but keep dreaming bud.

The only way you are getting Marner is if you give Drysdale. So if you don't want to give up Drysdale, that's perfectly fine. We will just keep Marner. We can agree to disagree. Besides, Why would a player who has never played a single game in the nhl, fetch a 94 point player at 23 years old? If you think about it, it doesn't seem fair, does it. Of course there is an enormous amount of upside in Drysdale, and thus I think his value is very close to Marner's, I suggested the difference was 2 seconds. But I would agree the ducks are better off keeping Drysdale, and the Leafs Marner. There is no reason to sell low.

Thank you. I don't get why people want to trade Marner for any old dman just because he shoots right either.
