As a Flames fan I wouldn't have much issue retaining on Marner post bonus if Toronto was interested in Markstrom+, then Calgary gets the futures package from Dallas
I think if Dallas wins the cup this year, then there's little to no chance that they trade for Marner since it will be difficult to retain the guys that they already have once they need contracts. Even without winning, I'm not sure that Dallas will be willing to give much more than a rental package for Marner and the ask on Markstrom sound rather high. However, if DAL were willing to do something like Mavrik Bourque + Dellandrea + Marchement + a conditional 2026 2nd (turns into a 1st if DAL wins the Cup in 2025 or 2026) for Marner + Robertson. Then the Leafs give a Bourque + a 3rd (would have said a 2nd but Leafs don't got one) for Markstrom (no retention) and Dallas gives a pick to CGY for retention on Marner. I think the Flames would want a bit if they are getting like a 3rd to retain might be worthwhile. Not really sure how much Bourque is valued but he looks NHL-ready based on his AHL-stats and was a top-50 prospect (28th) according to Button. He ranks him as a B prospect, but he also has Shane Wright as one as well. THW had him as the 13th best prospect.
CGY: Bourque + 2026 3rd (Tor) + 2025 3rd Dallas
DAL: Marner (50% retention - 5.45M) + Robertson
TOR + Markstrom (6M) + Marchement (4.75M) + conditional 2026 2nd (turns into a 1st if DAL wins the Cup in 2025 or 2026) + Dellandrea
I feel that the trade is suboptimal for CGY (although Bourque sounds like he has a ton of value and fills a need), high-rental price for DAL who is probably not that desperate to add Marner (unless they get demolished in RD3 or 4), and the Leafs do well all things considered.
