Marner not going anywhere

He should be going to jail for robbing the leafs ****ing blind with that contract.

10m for six or seven year Ok. 7.5m for 3.

If Marner was willing to sign for 10 x 6 or 7, the deal would be done by now. He's not signing anything that doesn't start with at least a 9.

Tehe don’t get me wrong, 3x10 is too much, but 7.5 is laughable

if the leafs were going to pay him 10 million over 3 years the deal would also likely be done by now. Without buying UFA years, Marner's contract decreases in value significantly. While I think 7.5 is low, 8 x 3 is realistic imo.
You have to realize the leafs know marners camp set his value through talking with the media. Without the media hype, and marners dad and agent saying 11 million, people would be saying if the leafs are only getting 3 years, that 8 million is far too much.
The thing is, 4 years is off the table because he walks right to UFA. 5 years is very very unlikely because then Marner, Matthews and Willy are all UFA's at the same time. that leaves 6, where he would get 10+, or 2 or 3 where the number likely starts with an 8 or very very low 9.
