So the Kings are going to have 3 guys taking up 8 digits on the cap? It's not working for Toronto, and they're better than LA, so this makes no sense.

 

[KingTech]

hell no Bayfield is going now where and marner is overpaid

 

[Dog]

We want Grundstrom back!

 

[A1LeafNation]

But why?

Makes no sense for both sides.

 

[Leaf Fans]

I suppose they create the proposal and hope for dissension and sit back and watch.

 

[Deadly Dogma]

No thank you, Byfields potential is Marner's current. Marner>Byfield
I have seen both of these guys at least 50 times live each and I can with 100% certainty say that Marner is a better player.
Hell even Laf is behind Marner IMO. 2015 was an insane draft, 3 out of the top 4 were 1st OA level players.

 

[Fatass]

Which team is rebuilding?

 

[Mrfenn92]

Both teams say no

 

[BlueBaron]

LOL. I was expecting Doughty for Marner which kind of makes sense (though Doughty with 7 more years aged 31 is kind of scary). This is just absurd.

Durzi

TO LA:
Marner
Dermott

This is an instant NO from LA.

How many 1st overall caliber players does it take to make it past the 1st round?

 

[kevsh]

Marner, not going anywhere
Nylander, not going anywhere

May as well just copy and paste this in every thread offering one of these two for trade, not that it will stop these threads.

 

[YP44]

We want Grundstrom back!

you can have him

 

[Lt Dan]

This is one of the worst proposals i have ever seen

 

[Maplebeasts]

Don't really see why the Leafs do this as a team trying to win now. Trading a 90-100 point winger for a prospect (even if it's Byfield) makes zero sense unless you're rebuilding. Dermott's not exactly a toss-in either.

Exactly. Kings maybe come out with more certain impact from the players but they're rebuilding. There's no need to trade a top 3 prospect in the game.

Marner was more creative and dynamic then Lafranier but Lafranier was the better player in his junior + 3 year.

i wish i could get the time back i wasted on opening this. appears to be a troll. ridiculous to suggest LA trade a player they just drafted second overall prior to ever playing a game

You may not agree with the trade. I dont either. But is it really a troll? I don’t think so. Look a the NHL there are terrible lopsided trades almost every year where people shake their heads and are shocked saying you gave up that for that or I would’ve gave up more. I bet there have been about three of them just in the last month or so. Schmidt, Murray are just two examples of that. Imagine the comments in here if someone proposed those trades.
There is a sucker born every minute.

 

[Sniper99]

OP didnt put much effort into this. Kings say no.

 

[kthx]

Overpaid winger for a potential Franchise 1C.
Makes 0 sense for both sides though.

Nylander, not going anywhere

Marner-overpaid.....Nylander-overpaid,kings laugh

 

[Kelly]

Threads like this without any reasoning when it's this absurd should be closed right away.

Dumb proposal.

 

[AvroArrow]

Literally makes no sense for either team. LA just drafted this guy, with the potential to be their franchise player for the next decade or longer, why are they moving him for Marner ?

As for the leafs, we are trying to win now. Trading our best winger for an Elite prospect does not do that.
