Has that loyal leaf signed a contract yet? Nothing like a die-hard leaf demanding to be paid 3 million more than market value, to let leaf nation know that he has the teams interest at heart.

Don't worry, he just wants to be offered 3 million more than market value. Once he signs he will take market value and be the good guy.

Yes, it looks like teams are falling all over themselves to offer sheet Marner for more than Montreal was willing to give Aho...

 

[DistantThunderRep]

I am shocked and appalled that Deke and Clark weren't the first posts.

None of the other loyal players have either. We have no idea what he is demanding outside of media speculation.

None of those players ever pretended to be die-hard fans and loyal to those teams. One thing you can be sure of is that the leafs have already offered him more then any other team would ever consider. The only team willing to overpay Marner is the Leafs, which they will do.

I’m shocked it wasn’t an obsessed sharks fan, but he was close.

Uh....

A. You have ZERO idea what the Leafs have offered, and if any other team has offered anything, or how much.

2. Again, you have no clue who is willing to overpay. Many teams very likely would........not just the Leafs.

III. Only Sith speak in absolutes.

Reply to point A: More then any other team would every pay, and No team has offered more.

Point 2: no other team and no other team likely would, only the leafs.

I am absolutely sure no other team is willing to overpay Marner but the leafs...

I have a feeling Darren Ferris is going to be running this out a lot longer. Like training camp minimum longer.

Nylander precedent has been set. Dubas and leafs management will give Marner whatever he is demanding, come the first 3 game losing streak.

 

[Chardo]

Would be very interesting if he signed. Probably a bad source but still curious

Who's Joshua Marshall?

If true I hope he signs it so we can finally get past this and the rivalry between the two teams would be amazing!

The best thing that could ever happen for the leafs (unless they are stupid enough to match) cap space, and 4 first lottery picks. Even Lou can't be that senile.

Rick Dhaliwal follows this guy.

Y'all still at this, huh?

Lou will be 77 soon, has the 5th best team in the league, rich owners, a new arena coming, and just watched the other two NY teams get dramatically better. You'd be surprised where his priorities may be now.

Sign it Mitch, ka Jingle all the way. E everybody would be happy.

The leafs wouldn't match that lol its a mindblowingly insane contract.

Yes, b/c Lou with 8 million in cap space is offer sheeting Marner @ 13Million. Who is Lou going to unload to be cap compliant, Martin? How much is Lou then going to pay Barzal (who may be better with more points in his first two years then Marner) next year?

We've all seen countless times that smart GMs make the moves to fit what they want to fit.
