The monster had that

Only downside to that is usually Kadri and Marleau are going up against the other team's best line to shut them down. BIG gamble and liability having him on there in that type of situation.

Honestly I think more the point to get Bozak replaced so we could have a second line where you have Brown/???/Marner as a solid unit. Brown is defensive enough to help cover Marner and if we could get a solid second line center in there it would make a huge difference I think.

Could be worse. At least we didn't wind up with Dylan Strome.

In a redraft, we'd probably go for one of the three defenseman that were taken shortly after him, but it's not like Marner is a bust or something. He's a skilled young player hitting a rough patch. He'll eventually clean up his game.

I think I liked the suggestion I saw the other day of putting Marner with Kadri and Marleau. People think Marner needs to be better defensively, so why not putting him with guys that are actually good defensively, instead of two guys that are only going to teach him more bad habits?
Marner might also spark some offense on that line and get Kadri going again.

I get that Kadri's line is the shutdown line and Marner might be too much of a liability, but hey, give it a try. When given some good examples of defensive forwards to watch, he might actually learn something and turn into a more responsible player.

Only reason that'd be the case would be if the Yotes took Marner 3rd.

Shoot from anywhere, especially in the first 5 minutes of the game...

Personally, I'd want both Provorov and Werenski over him.

But I'd take Marner over all of them.

We are not trading Nylander and Marner, (frank) off!

Palat out 2 months.

Leafs vs Lightning 1st round.

not for mcdonagh.

it would have to be a johansen for jones type deal. so something like marner for werenski or provorov.

but i just don't see it happening.

It'll be a low scoring affair with Tanev and Gudbransson but without Matthews, Marner, Nylander and Brown.

in all seriousness, if badbranson costs us a 2nd and some random depth prospect like....idk, pinnich?...then i would be ok with it as an upgrade over polak.

I'm pretty sure pichinnic or whatever is not under an NHL contract, just an AHL/ECHL deal
