Description

I think Marner needs to take some time off to work on his mental health. It's easy to underestimate the pressures that a highly paid athletes faces but they're humans too, and right now, he's not functional and its impacting the rest of the team. The best case scenario for him and the team would be if he steps away from hockey and let the team use LTIR to get Eichel, come back when you're ready.

Or the fanbase could actually show some him some support rather than just making assumptions about his mental health and saying he should be off the ice.

I’d say this smells like a Kucherov LTIR’ing until playoffs, but…

That's the entire future you're mortgaging there. I'd rather have a prospect pool that's more than just Niemela instead of another 10 million dollar forward.

Pretty crappy offer for Eichel, There's noway he's playing wing in Toronto and he's an expensive #3C. And Eichel wont even be playing at least until the playoffs. Once he has his surgery you're looking at a 4 to 5 month recovery period. He wont even have his surgery until he's dealt to his new team and that's still aways yet.

I'd be happy with a 3rd for Stecher but so far this season I'm not sure he's even worth that. I didn't think he'd get traded before the TDL but if Lindstrom continues to play well it wouldn't surprise me if he went before that.
