Guentzel for less than 8, WOOF.

I will say though that I think the sens would be interested in the 6th overall pick for chychrun. That would be a pretty easy yes lol Retention probably isnt in the conversation though.

So Utah is giving up 2 firsts including a high end one this year, a retained Crouse, taking on a cap dump, all for one year of Marner? And that is making an unlikely assumption that Marner waives for Utah. Not very realistic.

Sens accept no take backs

for 6th overall? I’d be very happy for the Sens to retain 50% lmao. easily worth the price

Realizing the 6th was a mistake on my part whoops. Still like Chychrun to Toronto in some fashion.

well better chance Leafs win a cup in 2024 than Utah trade 6th and next years first for marner so the OTT trade wont happen

I will defend this trade to a pretty unrealistic level because I do really like it for both sides. Picks 5-10 in this yrs draft are good but more likely than not those players will not live up to Marners talent (which people somehow seem to forget). At his best Marner is fantastic and a place like Utah where he would be the face of the franchise (also I am assuming this is a sign and trade so Marner waives and signs extension) feels like a fit. I also feel as the coyotes/Utah have been a wanting to contend for the playoffs team for the past two years (start or end strong but half of the season they are missing). They want to be a playoff team and they have the outline of a team that could do it, and Keller, Marner, Schmaltz, and Maccelli would be a pretty awesome foursome (id love to see it). And that would in perspective render the next yr 1st as a mid first. They also have enough cap space to buy up the league so Kampf is just filler for a leafs team that need cap. (Again I think Marner is more valuable than other people think I guess). (Also this is all under the belief that Marner WOULD waive to go to Utah, which since I'm not Marner I can say.)

Calgary doesn't even bother responding to lowball offers for Markstrom.
