Dreger: Teams are 100% preparing to offer-sheet Mitch Marner

[Colt55]

lol. he need's to sign it first. doubt he signs one. toronto is his hometown and will be a contender for the next 10+ years. why would he leave for an extra couple million. I'm sure he'll make a ton anyway

12 13 million reasons why

 

[Colt55]

Dreger writes erotic fan fiction for the western Canadian market

I love it when it's leaf nation effected it's static fan fiction but when's another team like the blues is a valid insider source.....

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

First off only garbage teams can afford to offer sheet Mitch Marner, And secondly how many of those dumb GM's are willing to surrender 4 1st round picks for him.

 

[Kiwi]

I will definitely find it funny if he signs an offer sheet.

Yeah

Why wouldn't a kid who's never played outside the GTA, played for the Knights in junior, was born in the GTA, was a Leafs fan growing up, is already getting advertising campaigns and endorsement money want to sign an offersheet that could force him out of town

That sounds highly likely when you think about it

Dreger is a moron whether he's talking about the Blues, the Yotes or the Leafs.

 

[Leaf Fans]

I can see the Islanders giving him an offer sheet of 12m as payback.

Payback for what?

 

[CupInSIX]

Payback for what?

Cairns

 

[capfit9]

How much of a kickback do you think Dreger is getting from Marner's agent ?

 

[Liferleafer]

I will definitely find it funny if he signs an offer sheet.

Of course...hoping the worst for the Leafs is a typical HF thing....i would expect nothing less.

 

[Leaf Fans]

Cairns

Did the Leafs offersheet him. There hasn't been a significant Islander player that has moved to the Leafs in a few years. MacAdam was the only one. Try and name another in the last two years.

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

He’ll never sign one.

For 11+ million I'm sure he will.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Why are Leafs fans laughing? It's likely true that teams will try to offer sheet Marner... He's the Leafs best player, still very young and could help pretty much every team in the NHL (except maybe Tampa). Definitely the kind of player worth losing multiple draft picks for.

Question is: will he sign one?

Because an offer sheet hasn't been signed since 2013 and there is 0 reason to believe that will change

 

[Dylbot]

There hasn’t been an offer sheet for 6 years. There hasn’t been an unmatched offer sheet in over a decade.

 

[Kiwi]

I can see the Islanders giving him an offer sheet of 12m as payback.

So they give him 12M and give the Leafs there next 4 1st round picks?
I'm a Leafs fan, where do I sign up for that?

 

[Finnish your Czech]

Can you please offer sheet Matthews instead

 

[Nervousbreakdown]

I can see the Islanders giving him an offer sheet of 12m as payback.

Overpaying a player is a great way to get payback for losing a UFA

 

[Funk21]

Dreger is such a hack

 

[PWJunior]

First off only garbage teams can afford to offer sheet Mitch Marner, And secondly how many of those dumb GM's are willing to surrender 4 1st round picks for him.

Not necessarily.

Theoretically the Islanders can present an offersheet for 5 years and $10.1M AAV which would only cost 2 1sts, 2nd, 3rd. The shorter term gets Marner to UFA (and potentially an even bigger pay day) and he would be one of the top paid wingers in the NHL.

The Leafs likely match that, but it ensures that Marner gets paid. If the Leafs don't match, then the compensation is nothing for a high end player in his early 20's. Just saying.

Marner's camp must be smiling with this report. He's gonna get paid so hard.

 

[trellaine201]

If a team offers him unbelievable money why wouldn’t he? Professional players go where the money is. There greedy for the most part.

Can’t wait to see if it happens

 

[mouser]

Anyone wanna bet Darren Ferris “leaked” this info to Dreger?

 

[vancityluongo]

Dreger is such a hack

Yeah, as much as I'd love for some additional offer sheet related excitement in the NHL, it just won't happen. To talk about it now is just a dude with no insight on the sport spewing bullshit. What the f*** does "preparing an offer sheet" entail? Downloading the f***ing form from the NHL's internal portal?

Dreger: "As many as 31 teams are 100% preparing to win the Stanley Cup next year"

 

[Jee]

So they give him 12M and give the Leafs there next 4 1st round picks?
I'm a Leafs fan, where do I sign up for that?

If those picks are late, they have more chance to turn out like Frédérik Gauthier. I would personally give up 4 Gauthier for 1 Marner

 

[Leaf Fans]

Not necessarily.

But the Islanders would only offersheet him if they wanted to sign him. They wouldn't do to drive up his price in some sort of vindictive way to have the Leafs pay more for him. What have the Leafs done to the Islanders?

 

[Canovin]

Not going to lie. Marner does look like a max player this year

 

[Stickpucker]

If the Leafs get bounced in the first round again I think he becomes more likely to sign an offer sheet.
