Weird trade. I honestly think there isn't a right or wrong answer (coming from a leafs and flames fan)
Toronto probably wins this trade though
Tkachuk is way better & it’s not even close. Marner has just been riding Matthews’ coattail his whole career. Put Tkachuk in Marner’s position & he scores 50 goals.
Tkachuk is like 8 months younger and is making less on a bridge deal
But I think Toronto wins
I think neither wins. They both are playing in Canada, northern climate, overly regulated, overly taxed, and would probably love playing in FL Or AZ with the sun and low taxes And year round golf.
