Marner is gone, 100% assure you all of this. If they don't trade him by July 1st, the offer sheet will be the catalyst. I do know this, Botterill has great interest in this situation.
At least use a team Marner might realistically want to play for, not some backwater organization.
Marner offer sheets, Leafa get 4x 1st round picks. They March if it's a good team where the picks will all be 20+.
Use the money they have now to sign Stone/ Panarin (who ever is available).
Use the 4 1st round picks and trade for a RHD, a guy with some size and some young cost controlled guys to fill out the roster.
Leafs have $72m tied up by 14 players for next season

What money signs Stone / Panarin?
If Marner gets offer sheets that give 4 x 1st round picks. You use the money he was gonna get and fill the picks into assets.
I.e. 2020 1st + Marleau(25% retained) to SJS for a 2020 2nd.
Use the assets gained in the 4 1sts to offload your bad contracts and replace them with better cheaper alternatives / picks coming back and use the menu to sign a star free agent winger.
To go back to SJS who is just as close to a cup as the Leafs? To back to where he still has a house with his wife and kids, where he said he is gonna retire?And exactly why Marleau would waive his NMC?
Kapanen worth 4 million easy.I don't think there's much risk of an offer-sheet on Marner, but the leafs will be in cap hell and other GM's could screw them by offering Kapanen something like 4mil on a 1 year deal.

"Toronto is basically ruined. They should just fold now to save the disappointment. Also, let my team help save your cap my offering to take your stars at 1/4 value because it makes sense, trust me."

Yeh, this sounds reputableMarner is gone, 100% assure you all of this. If they don't trade him by July 1st, the offer sheet will be the catalyst. I do know this, Botterill has great interest in this situation.
It is his choice. He might want to wave it.And exactly why Marleau would waive his NMC?
This is crazy... They have 11M left to sign 8 guys? Marner will take almost all of this space. Horton's LTIR gives then another 5M in space?Leafs have $72m tied up by 14 players for next season
