Don't know what it is with him but he seems to get the other team pissed at him and off their game naturally. If he put some muscle on and developed a mean side he'd be real valuable.

I would like to see a Goodrow-Engvall-Armia line

Ha Ha. I just have this fear that trading him will be another punch line that other fans will use to ridicule us for the next 20 years.

I would swap him for Eichel in a heartbeat though. I want a star for star trade, none of these stupid packages.

That is absolutely zero help for the cap.

I don't like that armia guy, he's a cheap female genitalia.

Good fit. đź‘Ť

Cap will go up after next season, isn't a new tv deal starting and the arenas will be full.

March 10th

During a press conference Wednesday, NHL commissioner Gary Bettman was asked when the league’s new media rights deal with ESPN would have an impact on the NHL’s salary cap. In response, Bettman said the salary cap will likely remain stagnant as part of the four-year collective bargaining agreement extension with the NHLPA.

“As part of that, the salary cap is basically going to be flat until we recover the overpayments through the escrow that we’ve built up both in the return to play from last season, which obviously had to be concluded under different circumstances, and this season we’re obviously… there’s a major escrow building up because of the fact that there’s no attendance,” Bettman said.

Attendance or lack thereof, Bettman added, directly and indirectly accounts for roughly half of the league’s revenues.

“So I think everybody is focusing on a flat cap or a near-flat cap for the immediate future,” he said.

I’d rather someone faster than Foligno at centre. Foligno can play wing with Tavares.

It has gone right off the rails now. If you don’t win the cup before your best players are 25 that means they all have to go.

They are making $11mil and $12mil a year! You want to DEMAND that kid of cash expectations are there! How bout start by winning 1 round. These guys struggled against Van and Ottawa last year.

Honestly there’s a few fringe and players that need upgrading on. Looking at it Reilly, Holl, and Dermott on the back end. Mik and Engvall. Kerfoot likely goes expansion. I think really can manage the core but one of the five got to go aylt the least and that’s Reilly.

To really balance it though its one of Nylander/Marner clearly but….

Have to wait and see what they have up their sleeve. Really Dubas doesnt leak much, and they tend to set things up and wouldn’t be surprised they already have ongoing talks and or something going to happen before the draft.

Get rid of Marner, we don't need to see Mathews castrated again.

Three Keys Moving Forward: aka The Fix.

1. Supplement Marner's Trix cereal with steroids.
2. Other than Trix, Marner's diet can only consist of Prairie Oysters. RAW!
3. Clockwork Orange Marner's ass in front of the movie Youngblood until his balls drop.

Problem solved.

Leafs win the Cup.

Why trade Marner for prospects who will develop when Matthews walks out the door?
- Canada Cup

I’m not saying it makes sense, I’m just saying trying to find a salary for salary deal of that magnitude would be something spectacular. I’ve never seen that much salary in for that much out and that’s not to say it won’t happen, but I wouldn’t bet on it.

I almost cheer for the Isles, just to see Cooper lose.
