Werenski is absolutely not available, CBJ don't need a other winger, especially at the cost of their only reliable D man, and 2 years of Marner isn't something CBJ want anyway.

That Bertuzzi offer will surely get outbid. You overpaid Glendening and slightly underpaid Acciari, so I’d adjust those and it should balance out cap wise. Domi will likely get slightly more per year as well.

This deal doesn’t make sense for CBJ. They’re weak on the back end and have a lot of forward assets.

Do you guys not like Timmins? Sturm is fantastic but a young RD for a bottom 6 guy seams like a steal.

The purpose of a Marner trade would be to get spade and fill a few positions not to spend 9.5m on a Dman.

That Toronto/Chicago trade involving Murray and the Boston 1st to the Hawks in return for a 2nd round pick is popular here on ACGM. I realize it's based on and similar to last year's TOR/CHI trade involving Mrazek. If Dubas was still around as the Leafs GM I could see him working with Chicago's GM Davidson again on that type of trade. With Dubas out of the picture, I think there's little chance of it happening. Although, I would like to see he Hawks get another 1st round pick somehow.

He's awful defensively

id do this gladly.

Mrazek could stay healthy. Murray is just a LTIR slot waiting to happen. Chicago knows they got ripped off last year they are not taking a larger contract 2 yrs in a row.

Chicago has tons of cap space, need to acquire some cap dumps and has deep pockets. They would take Murray if a 2023 1st round pick is offered as a sweetener. Like you said they can LTIR and pay him not to play (I assume the contract is insured anyway) or buy him out. In fact Toronto could do the same and not trade away the Boston pick.
