Poor guy?
He's made 60 million dollars living out his childhood dream of playing in the NHL...
I wish I had his bad luck...
All joking aside, you think Holland would consider Ryan at league minimum? Middle six RW.
Come on down to Vancouver
Would Ottawa have traded Bobby Ryan (50% retained) + 3rd OA + 5th OA + 51st pick
For
Marner

Well, as people know, this lowers the cap hit by half.
I think Melnyk did it to take advantage of the situation that most teams are having with cap, so he's making as much cap room as possible to take on garbage contracts in exchange for top prospects and players as "gifts" for taking these albatross contracts off their hands.
in 3 years Ottawa will be a top 5 team...
BTW..not an Ottawa fan. Just think this is what Melnyk is thinking.
f*** no.
Why do people keep proposing the 3 and 5 for Marner?
Ottawa should not even trade either pick for Marner alone.
Leafs made their bed with all those high contracts and now have to live with them in a cap flat world.
You know the cap is flat for the next 3 seasons right?Marner will be harder to move in a flat cap season. If Toronto really wants the space I'd wait until next year when the return would be higher. He is an elite winger and he is paid like he is.
Don’t know if this was covered but since he was bought out he can sign with a team before fee agency begins correct?
