<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>worldwidesensei</b></div><div>Why, exactly, would Vegas do that?

They're already a playoff team, they don't need any regular season points from Marner to help them get there. And he clearly is pretty useless in the playoffs.

That is the conundrum TOR finds itself in with Marner and his NMC.

Marner will want to go to a playoff team, but a playoff team doesn't need/want Marner.

Marner will have to waive his NMC to a non-playoff team and then hope that either, that non-playoff team makes the jump to the playoffs with him, or they trade him at the TDL.</div></div>

Why? Because its a bloody handout and Vegas loves bloody handouts. Marner AND a 1st for Hill and Theodore? A guy I've heard Vegas fans declare 'expendable' after the Hanifin trade?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>dh91</b></div><div>You think Marner cares about any of that? He's looking for a pay day. You don't get pay days collecting meaningless points on the worst team in the league.
Name me the last star player who either signed or waived their NMC to go play on the worst club in hockey. I'll wait.</div></div>

If he's looking for a payday and that's all he cares about, guess where the money is?
Either he is getting run out of town and he'll go where a deal is made. Or he's going to just let the Leafs pay him and sign where he wants with no assets going to the Leafs at the end of 24-25. Regardless of whether he wants to go to SJ or not, its a terrible deal for Teal to give up those assets for a $11m season-long rental. Eventually Toronto will be rid of him and there will be nothing but Cups and parades up and down Yonge for the foreseeable future.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Wqrrior</b></div><div>why would the sharks need retention? its pointless. they aren't in cap duress. you guys need skill and shouldn't need to be paid to take someone who benefits your roster... convincing UFAs to sign probably wont be cheap/easy</div></div>

Retention is never pointless. Especially for a 33 year-old going UFA after the season going to a prospective trade partner that has no retention slots of their own. Regardless of how much cap Sharks have, hockey is still a business that looks heavily at ROI and Orlov in his last season at 7.75 is very unlikely to achieve much. Grier has made it clear he is not looking to just spend the bank and that's all this really does. Its a cap dump plain and simple. One of our retention slots as it stands is Burns. If the Canes want any more help from the Sharks, they need to grease the wheels a bit more. And I guarantee nobody else in the league is taking on Orlov for any asset at all without significant, up to 50% retention.
