I will discuss your concerns at our next meeting. Thank you for your feedback.
You guys need a flow chart or something. Hand it out at your parade planning parties. It’d help with the trade proposals.You realize there's a lot of us right? Our hive mind mentality must not be functioning properly lately...

Matthews = #1 Dman
Marner = possible #2 Dman
Everyone else, even in combination = not a #1 Dman.
Keep it simple for the EA sports crowd
You say that as if Lindholm is an aging vet. They are separated by two years and both under 25.
OR
"You won't accept my proposal?! Well have fun with your sucky team!" You're a bit sensitive to be making proposals it seems.
Nylander is a great player but Anaheim won't give them Lindholm for him. It's not happening.
Not sure if serious..Like to see that proven. Sure I'm a Leaf fan,but I've been watchin' for over 50 years...not many Marner -like indivduals over that span! Perhaps you know of some coming up,or can maybe state an example of who currently is Marner-like that a team would give up for Lindholm.
I agree,#1 D are difficult to groom. However,I don't consider either player a true # 1.Besides ,it's not so much Lindholm I was refering to as it was your percieved underestimation of Marner.Look at 25 years of drafting history between these two teams since the Ducks have existed. Lindholm and Rielly stand alone as true #1 D drafted and developed by the clubs, and there are quite a few examples forwards of top line quality drafted during that time.
It's really damn tough to draft and develop a #1D, and just as tough to trade for one because the teams that have them tend to lock them up for most of their prime barring off ice interference.
Oh? Not a fan of Marner? Would be interested in your comparisons!Not sure if serious..
Nope, I am a fan of Marner. He's a good young smallish winger with upside. But if you've been watching hockey for 50 years and can't draw any comparisons then you can't be helped.Oh? Not a fan of Marner? Would be interested in your comparisons!

Lol no. If you want our 1D its gonna take one of your 1Cs.
You do realize we both made it to same round last year. We did that whilr fighting injuries and having RC as a coach.Ducks are bottom heavy, Leafs are top heavy. Ducks aren't competitive anymore and get younger in this deal. Nylander still hasn't hit his ceiling despite having exception underlying numbers screaming breakout year.
Ducks can stick to the script and continue to regress and die slowly.
Oh excuse me, I must have glossed over that. The frequency of stupidity of alot of these leaf posts makes me gloss rather than read alot of the time. Accuracy in writing is also a thing!I didn't say 'any' I said 'not many'! Accuracy in reading is a thing!
Also , I noticed you don't have any comparisons!
Idk we got rakell at 3.8 lolHow the hell did y'all get him on a $5.2M deal right through his prime? Point production?
There’s no reasonable plus that would convince us to move the current and future of our D core.Nylander plus?...

Those are nice players,Marner will have a better career than all of the above!.It would likely take you 'all day' research to come up with comparisons.Oh excuse me, I must have glossed over that.

There's alot more that I'm sure I'm missing. But I'm not really trying to sit here and type Comparisons for you all day.
Lol,Those are nice players,Marner will have a better career than all of the above!.It woukld likely take you 'all day' research to come up with comparisons.
Oh man, parade planning joke! Classic
I realize what opinions are worth! I will continue to enjoy watching the youngster. Points aren't your only gauge ,I would hope!Lol,
OK man. You win. I will patiently wait for marners first art Ross.
I’m starting to think Nylander and Kapanen must not be very good.
Leaf fans sure want to jettison them off the roster quite often
Kapanen value isnt that greatOr leafs fans know in order to get a good dman you have to put a valuable piece on the table.
