Marner was a beast on the PK last night. So impressive. I'm not saying he shouldn't make the team but i can't help but feel just one more year might be best. Especially since we have a lot of youth ready and deserving .and to stagger contracts.

While I get the point, the only thing that should matter is development.

I think putting Marner back in the O will hurt that.

Sheltering him on the Leafs against other team's 3rd lines and D pairings with Kadri and some gritty vet like Leo might be best for that.

Although I trust Babcock, we'll see what camp has to offer

I don't see Leafs management bringing him up unless he absolutely kills it in camp.

What on earth can he prove by getting 175 points in the OHL next year?

It makes no sense

I think it's more about his physical development more than his talent. At least for me. Again though, I'd be fine with him making the team.

That he can do it again, I guess. Not much, but it also doesn't make much sense exposing him to the NHL so quickly. He's small and young. He'll get his time.

But we don't have another Daniel Winnik to trade right now.

Have you considered trading Matt Frattin, per chance?

Brian Hayes calls him a Canadian Patrick Kane...

Does that make Matthews an American Jonny Toews?

To get rid of Lupul we would need an opposing GM who:

1) Is really desperate for some offense
2) Has not been on the internet or read a paper for 2 years
3) Has no pro scouts
4) Owes Uncle Lou a big favour

So... McDavid-like numbers (actually better), awards up the yin-yang, domimating the Memorial...

Yeah... let's keep this bust Marner in the O for another 34 years.

No place for him on the Leafs.
