Were not taking Dermott, you will need to find an alternative trade partner there.

We have plenty of NHL bottom pairing LD.

STL and PHI trades look fairly interesting.

CHI and SEA will decline easily.

CBJ probably agrees to taking Engvall virtually free.

Kraken aren't going to trade a potential top 5 pick

But I mean if we can dump Nylander count me in he’s trending towards the bust territory

Stan would likely look to move him for another prospect. Im not out on Nylander just yet.

True I think another prospect or two would work

I would like to have marner on the team and I think the compensation is good for him. The issue is that Armstrong will probably never take on a contract more than 9 mill and STL really likes vlady as much as Toronto likes marner. Realistically the best thing to do for Toronto is to ship out a big contract

I know some people will complain about marner's cap hit and poor playoffs but this would be an absolute no-brainer for stl if it were offered. Marner takes over for tarasenko who is a huge question mark; Walman or Perunovich take over for Dunn who is probably getting run out of town anyway (unwarranted); kostin takes over for sanford, brings more jam. IMO Leafs would be silly to give up an elite winger based on a few bad games. And if they need to trade him I'm sure they could do better than this.

jack hughes isnt elite

🧢

I debated on how much to try and get back without going overboard and my biggest reason for shedding Marners cap hit is to try and sign Hamilton.

Gotcha, probably a better approach than trading for way too much and getting called a homer. I doubt many GMs would give up enough to make Dubas pull the trigger so it's a hard line to draw on Marners trade value.

I think Kraken have a chance to be decent right away, could top 10 protect it

I’m really hoping the Leafs sign Dougie for 9M+ It will be entertaining for everyone to watch.

Yeah I don’t think Dubas will move him as i don’t know if there is a way for them to actually win any Marner trade, unless they fooled the Pegulas and GM Adams to trade Eichel for him straight up on the basis of how little actual money left on Marners deal and them not wanting to completely start over again. But that to me seems unrealistic
