True. No chance the Preds give up an elite number one D man for an overpaid winger. That would be completely insane.TSN. No bias there.

Actually, the idea to move Dr. Drai for SJ is a good one.Why ?
We have defensive depth now.
We have Ethan bear, Bouchard , Adam Larsson Matt benning. Jones is awesome but drai is top 5. Even rated by tsn.

This makes for a very nice tribute to Terry Jones (z''l).Honestly it would be better suited for Columbus to trade for prospects. They are not gonna be competing for a cup anytime soon.
Benson + Ethan bear + 1st in 2020 + samourokov + Gagner.
I don't know what their offer would have been, however it was reported that Columbus was one of the teams who thought about giving Marner an offer sheet and I think they presented him with one and obviously he did not sign it.If they could afford to take on Marner's enormous contract, why would they not be able to pony up for Jones?
Their General Manager isn't going to get bent over for nearly $11 million in a negotiation, and even if he did, in your scenario, they are willing to pay one player that cap hit.
Columbus 51 games 62 pointsHonestly it would be better suited for Columbus to trade for prospects. They are not gonna be competing for a cup anytime soon.

I would be careful, what you are saying or you can entertain some good old Barrie, Ceci, Kapanen, Bracco and 2nd for McD proposals.

I thought Ceci was tough enough to swallow.You forgot to mention that Edmonton's glorious performance is also in the weakest division, while Columbus is in the hardest.
Hmmm, Edmonton's record vs the hardest division(Metro) is 9-2-0.You forgot to mention that Edmonton's glorious performance is also in the weakest division, while Columbus is in the hardest.
Marner is awesome, but his contract is terrible. Draisatl is a better player than MM and on a way better contract. I would think Drai for Jones would be way more attractive to Columbus than MM.I would never trade Jones for Marner if I was Columbus.
I would trade Marner for Jones if I was Toronto.
It's fair value, but it makes Columbus worse and Toronto better.

I don't be think the Preds trade Josi for an overpaid winger. I don't think the would even do it for Marner.True. No chance the Preds give up an elite number one D man for an overpaid winger. That would be completely insane.
Marner is very valuable to the Leafs(and likely the Jackets as well,if the offer sheet rumour is true). He is a difference maker.He controls play.He shows determination on a level higher than most.I wouldn't criticize Jones game,but he isn't the difference maker that Marner is. Subtracting Marner and inserting Jones doesn't bring the Leafs to the Cup.This seems like a good deal. Columbus gets a star player with a long term contract and Toronto gets a defenseman. It almost makes too much sense. With Marner Babcock experiment Tortorella will probably seem like a great guy lol
I dissagree I think Columbus takes McDavid @50% retained for Jones.The answer to every Jones proposal is always no. Whomever, whatever, whenever, forever. Always no.
Completely agree on both . Jones is a minus player and not even ranked in TSN top 50. Solid D but not worth marner or drai.Marner is very valuable to the Leafs(and likely the Jackets as well,if the offer sheet rumour is true).

For those entertaining Drai for Jones...never happen! Columbus adds.
