I haven't seen any ducks trades for Marner and in comparison to the other mock trades I've seen, that is a very solid deal for Toronto whether their fans believe so or not. I like that lineup, not the how realistic it is with the amount of moves made, but very intriguing nontheless.

There’s not a single person outside of Toronto who thinks there’s even a 1% chance of getting McTavish for Marner

Easy no from the Sharks.

i know

the ducks need to add

1. We're not trading for Mitch Marner while simultaneously sending his center back the other way.

2. We're not paying for Marner before July 1, so forget about any 2024 draft picks.

3. We're not trading our Hagens sweeps ticket for Marner.

We're a small-market team being constructed on a from-the-ground-up basis -- exactly the opposite of Toronto. You guys have proven conclusively over the past 6 seasons that concentrating 61.7% of the permissible cap in 5 players and surrounding them with minions and spear-carriers is an unworkable approach to building a winning team. Our core, instead of 5 prohibitively high big-ticket players, is Zegras and Gauthier at LW, Carlsson and McTavish at C, Terry at RW, Mintyukov and Zellweger at LD, Dostal at G, and whoever we draft with our first-round selections in 2024 and 2025, all of whom will aggregate less than 24% of the allowable cap space. We're not interested in Mitch Marner unless he can be added to that nucleus without subtracting from it. If you think that whatever we have left is an insufficient return for one season of Mitch Marner, fine, please look elsewhere.

McTavish >>>> Marner — that’s how the value goes



HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH

McT for Marner ain’t it, that’s a pipe dream. No single member of our core is worth moving for Marner simply because of the $12M contract he wants. McT is the second highest name on that list behind only Leo

But none of that matters because Marner isnt going to waive his NMC for ANA (and likely not for anywhere at all). Odds are incredibly high you guys either buck up to extend him, or he walks in free agency like his agent is pushing for

yes an over ppg player whos great defensively and on the penalty kill is worth more

mctavish first 2 seasons: 38 goals 50 assists 88 points
marner first 2 seasons : 41 goals 89 assists 130 points

the difference in points is more than mctavish has ever had. more assists than mctavish had points

thats not including defensive and pk play
