Sujet: Matthews to Montreal
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jonh514</b></div><div>I have tried to apply logic.

All offensively gifted players want to play creative hockey. Being jammed into a defensive system hampers their ability to score.

The extreme version of this is Caufield with Ducharme. Matthews is totally unengaged with Keefe right now, you don't think it's the one thing that changed A.K.A the defense-first system he is trying to implement?

Marner and Matthews, two of the most creative and offensively gifted forwards in the league, are being stifled.</div></div>

Keefe is not stifled Matthews and Marner he is trying to get the whole team to be more responsible defensively. Marner and Matthews and trying to tune Keefe out because Keefe called them out after the first 4 games

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jaok3</b></div><div>Tavares has a NTC contract and Matthews is the best scorer in the league so who do you move Marner or Willie. Comparing them, Marner is the only player on the leafs that is on the #1 unit in every situation and last season was a first team all-star. Now Willie is supposed to be a great goal scorer and he is but Marner's best season of 35 goals is more than Willies best season. Willie last season had 80 points and Marner had 97 in 9 less games. Willie was a -9 and Marner was a +23. You will definitely get more for Marner in a trade, but he is by a mile the better player.</div></div>

All those reason you listed are exactly why I think the leafs should consider moving Marner. It's nothing against Marner it's about getting the best value that can help this team win now, but also get some draft picks so the leafs can restock the cupboards as well

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SociallyHawkward</b></div><div>I'm hoping for atleast a 23' first. Which will be a late first cus he'll only waive for a contender. And I'd hope Davidson can pull a top 50 forward prospect in the league. That's the baseline I try to hold other armchair gm's to. Now if Kane gives a list of 4-5 teams he will accept a trade to then the price probably goes up a bit. If he gives a list of 1 or 2 teams then the price probably goes down a bit. A 23' first rounder should be guaranteed in any Kane trade tho.
For example say Toronto gets their goaltending in order and looks like the contender they should be, I'd hope Davidson could pull knies and Torontos 23' first for Kane half retained. If Toronto needs to add a kerfoot and holl for cap purposes then I'd expect a 2nd round pick for taking those contracts as well.</div></div>

Thanks for you're insight Hawkward. You have been great to talk hockey with. I think I'm going to change up my asking price for Marner.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GMBL</b></div><div>Could be, it depends on what the quality of the prospect. I made a joke ACGM with Marner going to SEA had a bit less but the players that were coming in had term.

The package from Boston is underwhelming though, Hall and Forbort are both 30, and have the same or less term as Marner. Beacher must be a top prospect and with the 2 1sts you get some nice value, but the roster players are probably not the right pieces. To make matters worse, the Leafs are sending Marner to a division rival. Perhaps the biggest thing they are getting is the cap space.</div></div>

Yeah in the real world this trade never happens. I plan on doing a similar Marner trade with every NHL team. Boston is my most hated team so I wanted to get it out of the way early.
