Sujet: Tavares unmovable so had to be Marner
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>KoneDome</b></div><div>Why Marner, not Matthews or Nylander.
1. Hard to judge this year, but Nylander has been good in playoffs last few years. He is strong on pucks and style of play translates to playoffs much more than Marner.
2. Matthews: you just can’t move off that talent. You keep running it back with a player of that ability as long as you can.

Wasn’t aware you can’t attach conditional picks to players signing. Maybe they both resign immediately. Marner 8x 11.25 and Buchnevich at 8x8? After that the Parayko for Liljegren isn’t outrageous to make up for the value in Marner-Buchnevich. I’d hear leafs adding mid pick or prospect.

Parayko’s NMC. Obviously it depends on that. Maybe he wants to go to a team more likely to make playoffs and win (cue jokes about leafs winning in playoffs). Per Marner, all these Marner trades are built around him waving to get out. St Louis seems like a reasonably good option for him?</div></div>

Marner is not a good option for the Blues. Would rather keep Buch and Parayko over taking on another player that is 10-ply soft, especially at the cap hit he will be demanding.

Blues value a balanced team rather than a single superstar (which I would argue Marner isn't even a superstar in this league although he demands to be paid like one)

Also, Lily is no where near equal value for Parayko. Not even 5 Lily's is enough value

Sujet: Blues get their longterm superstar
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Subbanator7667</b></div><div>I actually thought Wayne played in St Louis later than Hull. Thought Hull left for Detroit in 97 and Wayne was a Blue in 98 before the rangers.

I get the balance and I get why the Blues wouldn't do the deal but it doesn't stop the fact that Marner would instantly your teams best player and frankly I don't think even this deal gets him out of Toronto. Buch and Parayko are fine players but neither is a star or even a top line player, if Buchnevich was younger or Parayko ever hit his potential it's closer in value but as is the Leafs would only get rid of Marner for a top pairing D man or a young player that can replace him</div></div>

Dude, Marner is not better than Thomas. And Parayko is literally a 1RD who was the first Dman to lead the league in both blocks and takeaways. This deal would never be offered in the first place.

Hull was in STL two seasons past Gretzkys departure. And the Blues have had others just as good as Marner since.
