<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Logicalicesports</b></div><div>LMFAO look at it from the Dallas point of view. You would be trading a kid that is closing in on being a ppg player before he is 21 and yet you want to trade him for a guy that is 6 years older who by all means is a star player but you are killing the competitive window and losing a 1st.

Easier description for your noggin. Young good player on team that has good young core should not be traded for a star that will be out of his prime in two years.

Not only that but he is their leading point producer and forward ice time leader in the playoffs at 20!</div></div>

From Dallas's point of view they lose a good young player who may be a PPG guy for a top 3 player in the world who is 26. This site is embarrassing

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GM_SZK</b></div><div>Granlund is a decent option but I don't see the Leafs giving up anything to get a guy of that quality when they can just go the UFA route and/or slide Domi over to 2C...also as mentioned above SJS have used their 3 retention spots so leafs would need to pay more to a 3rd team...at the TDL 2025...maybe a deal like this could happen if needed

EDIT sorry forgot about your NYI trade...I won't argue over the weight of the deal either way but I actually think its a good deal for the Leafs! Could be its a 3 team deal and Marner goes elsewhere as I feel like NYI already have a guy in Marner's spot (Barzal)</div></div>

Pollock is not worth a quarter of Marner and Varlamov is absolutely not needed. This is a gross loss for TO.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>He's not "a world class top 5 RW"; he's a world class top 5 RW with only one season left on his contract. Why do you have such difficulty processing the fact that time affects value? Moreover, why do you project people "hating" Marner? The only antipathy for Marner <strong>the player</strong> that I see comes from Toronto fans who allege that he's soft, doesn't show up for the playoffs and isn't worth a bloated contract figure, whereas outsiders criticize Marner <strong>trades</strong> only because his contract makes him a lame duck. Obviously, if Marner comes with an extension at an absorbable cap hit, then this trade favors the Islanders, but I don't think that NY's current cap situation would permit such an extension. There's a reason why my comment focused solely on term.</div></div>

Come on man, use some sense. Anyone saying, it's only 1 year is purposely limiting this discussion to lower his value. Beyond that, rentals go for crazy overpays every year. Every year fans will say any FA they have is worth a first plus. But Marner? He has no value, TO will have to take back horrible cap dumps to make it fair. Essentially making Marner himself a cap dump.

This is disappointing, I have always held you in high regard but your Marner takes recently are purely mob thought, self justification bs talking points.

If Panarin had 1 year left and was traded, he would get five times the value Marner gets. Why is that? How do people think Crosby would have exponentially higher value than Marner? To think all teams would bend TO over a barrel because they are somehow without a choice on keeping or trading Marner is absolutely delusional. If Rantanen was in the block with 1 year left, would people say the same thing? Absolutely not, they would be offering insane packages with the caveat of "an extension would come with the trade". But not Marner. He is a 1 year rental that is a cap dump for some reason.

Sujet: Final 895 scenario I promise
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GM_SZK</b></div><div>Ya true...he made it...I have no idea of what his numbers could be but a comp (and I hate comps) is like a modern version of two Johns...Tonelli and Leclair...so big tough guys that play a heavy game that can score big time goals...thanks very much!

The other guy I see (and I hate comps but) is Benoit...I dunno so much like a Sylvain Lefevbre type D...again they aren't easy to find...great work they did with him...remember all the debate on where Benoit/Liljegren/Brodie/etc are on the pecking order? To be fair Benoit has not been awesome but he has shown flashes of a playoff type D...again next year could be huge for him.</div></div>

Benoit is limited in his effectiveness. Many plays die on his stick. He's pretty good in his zone but outside of it, he's just not capable of anything good

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>fil97</b></div><div>I would like to meet your dealers pls

there is no realistic scenario where Sid gets traded, let alone for a bad offer like this one.

and no Marner for Sid one for one is a no brainer for Toronto but obviously Pit would decline. sure assists and points in the regular season are fan and all but Sid even at his age is on a different planet.

everyone in the world with a brain would much rather have the next 3 years of Crosby then the next 8 of Marner if they want to win something. and I like the leafs and I think Marner is a great player.

this is not even my opinion: nhl poll from gms and players on who they'd take for a game 7 to save their life, everybody (don't remember the percentage but he won lol) voted for Crosby even over mcdavid and the rest of them.

people forget too easily that Sid is the 3rd best player EVER maybe even second.</div></div>

Heavy bias here. If Crosby wants to chase a cup, he will dictate the whole thing which will limit suitors. He's also 36, his best days are behind him. He's obviously still incredible but he'll be taking a more secondary role where he goes if he goes.

You aren't getting a ridiculous offer for a 36 year old.
