risto and reinhart is a fair trade for mitch

but if I am the sabres I wouldn't do it
- homiedclown

Oh yes they would

Take out Boeser and put in Pettersson.
- tincup

they can keep all of it, this might be the worst trade scenario presented so far. keep boeser and pettersson. thanks.

Toronto gets Scott Mayfield,
Thomas Hickey, Anthony Beauviller, Keifer Bellows

Islanders get Mitch Marner , Ben Harpur

Mitch Marnerw will sign in Toronto soon.

Trust me, I told you guys those fantasy offersheets were not coming on Canada Day.
- RogerRoeper

bro, read the writing on the wall. marner is going to be done here.

The Leafs probably aren't looking for picks. They are in win-now mode.
- SolidGoldBricks

Yes, but they are going to be in even more cap hell next year as only 1 d-man is signed and perhaps being able to push through with the team they have and create space for a deadline trade without subtracting from the roster at the deadline then is something to consider. If you could pick up Timmons now to slot into next year that could be a good long-term play. It all comes down to whether or not Nylander and the other younger middle 6 players can replace the offense lost with Marner. For instance if NJ tanks after all their moves Hall might become available and will fit nicely at the deadline.

Always a lot of what-ifs, but figure they are really looking at the replacement person getting half the Marner points and then the other half coming from other players increasing production from last year. Certainly do-able to try and get a deadline pick-up and create a better cap situation for next year.

All for fun and make believe and I don't think the Leafs would hurt nearly as much in losing Marner as other teams might because of the depth on offense right now.

Mitch Marner and a first for Richard Park

bro, read the writing on the wall. marner is going to be done here.
- BluesFan44isa_JOKE

So he won't play in Toronto again? LOL. All RFas are going to sign with their team.

I think Werenski for Marner is kinda fair.

Risto + Reinhart seems like an okay deal for both sides too. Reinhart probably gets 70-75 points in toronto, and Marner probably comes down to around 80-85 with the sabres. The points could be close on just the forward part of the deal.

Laine for Marner I would consider fair too. Very different players, but both star wingers. Laine with JT probably is back in the mid forties for goals.

of all the trades suggested those three seem legitimate.

I like both players but Draisaitl is 50 goal scorer. Those are too rare to trade away.

Away from McDavid he produces very little.

Is this like when the Nordiques traded Lindros to both the Rangers and the Flyers?
- Atomic Wedgie

LOL

Crap if only the Leafs had some young D prospects to sign entry level contracts.

Wow! You sure got me good! Feeling pretty good about yourself aren’t ya now? You’re the man cool guy!
- Ihatebrianburke

You found a negative in that comment?

can you throw in a cheesesteak? wit provolone.
- Tumbleweed

I'll give you one with provolone and one with cheese wiz

that's why you're an oilers fan.
- BluesFan44isa_JOKE

Yes you’re right. It’s not because I’m from Edmonton at all.

Kyle Turris and a 5th
That should do it

werenski straight up for marner best offer take it or leave it.
- redsfanhere

Away from McDavid he produces very little.
- eternal_flames

False and he’s still better than every player on your team!

I'd like to suggest a sign and trade.

Montreal signs a lesser RFA like Connor to an offer sheet, since they aren't afraid of offer sheets and Bergy is looking to make a big splash. Then they trade Connor for Marner. They would have to add something though. Maybe like a 2nd round pick? Leafs could use a better back-up so maybe Montreal includes Keith Kinkaid who would be a perfect back-up for Toronto.

Montreal lands Marner to make a big splash. Leafs get Connor and save some cap space. Maybe enough to bring back Gardiner.
- uofcguy

The Leafs are not screwing around. David Poile tweeted from his hiding spot in the auditorium (behind the munchie machine, don't tell anyone) that this is NOT OK.

I wouldt trade Dahlin for Marner

Away from McDavid he produces very little.
- eternal_flames

The Oiler fan is trolling, or he is just stupid. I guess that is up to him to know.

So he won't play in Toronto again? LOL. All RFas are going to sign with their team.
- RogerRoeper

it's september 4th, i don't think the leafs want to do nylander all over again.

When will you discuss the same things for guys like Rantanen and Point, ek?
- RogerRoeper

Would get an almost-digit-amount of comments, that don't go off topic and start talking about Marner.

But always keep in mind that Toronto is NOT the center of the hockey universe.

Curious, do people even read what other team's cap situation is? Because Leafs are hardly in "Cap Hell". They can move virtually anyone without issue in a trade. They have no overpaid bottom 6 guys on their roster unlike everyone else.

They have DSandin and Lilljegren signed next year FYI, and will have 16-18 million in cap AFTER they sign Marner.

This doom and gloom about the Leafs cap never works out. Remember how Marner was signing an offersheet July 1st and Nylander traded by the draft for cap reasons?
