Speculation: What would Mitch Marner garner if he is dangled?
- Thread starter Amadeus
- Start date
When it comes to negotiating a contract in pro sports both sides need to compromise.
I do believe that the Leafs will set a hard deadline for Marner and his camp by early June, and that if a deal isn't close to being finalized at that point, then they'll move him if they can get a significant enough return.
They wouldn't be doing their jobs if they haven't already prepared to look at a frame work for deals with other clubs in advance. I expect they'll do that with both Kapanen and Johnsson as well. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if they both also have hard deadlines that end in late May.
I think the LA Kings could be a potential trader partner for the Leafs. It would probably be a larger deal, though.
To LA: Marner, Zaitsev, Liljegren, and Bracco.
To Toronto: Doughty, 5 OA pick, Anderson-Dolan.
I could also see Kapanen being moved to Columbus for Josh Anderson and a package of Johnsson and Brown moved to the Rangers for Chris Kreider (with salary retained).

If you sign Marner at
If you sign Marner at 11m and replacement player X at 1 million it's 12M in cap for 2 roster spots. Assuming Marner score 100 points per season for the duration of the contract and replacement X scores 20 points you average 60 points per roster spot. Now if I go and offer a 6M dollar contract to Nyquist and Zuccarello I'm going to expect to get 55 points from each guy. I get 110 points for my two roster spots. I'm paying the draft pick, roster player and prospect for the upward potential of Marner and 10 extra points. I'd be stupid to pay 11M in cap and what Marner is worth in a vacuum. The 11M in cap is the most valuable asset in the trade.

I’m a Marner fan but 1st rd pick isn’t as good as a roster player......obviously depending on the roster player

As a leaf fan , I say no to all these deals. Been a marner fan since London . Kid isn't going to get worse. He's got skills and passion. Anyone who wants him should be giving up a 1-2 dman .Why trade a kid for picks? I wouldn't trade him for Hughes straight up . Hughes could be better , but it sets back the team 1-2 years. Plus I doubt Hughes will be as good as marner . I personally see him turning into a rnh type . Marner will consistently be a 60-80 point winger , with outliers of 100+. Much like Kane . Marner also plays defensively, pk, pp specialist and forechecks
Doesn't make sense for van. You still have no winger to play with Ep/Horvat and no chance of drafting a top winger for 2 years. And you'll have no shooters on the pp besides Ep

Done deal. That's a worse deal for the hawks. You lose a 40 goal scorer. Thought the hawks were looking to add to strome and debrincat as their young offense core that's why went with boqvist. Would do debrincat and the 3rd overall
A lot, I hope.
I love the kid.
But I'm dreaming.
He's more important to the Leafs than Matthews is.
Burke thought the Leafs would make the playoffs with Kessel and that the picks would end up being 15th to 30th...
Wrong he was !

im not as high on debrincat as alot of other hawks fans.. dont get me wrong hes an awesome player but if way rather have marner its just a matter of that 3rd overall pick because that player will more than likely be a star in the league..
