Leafs will just sign McDavid when he's a UFA in 2 and a half years.

The gap between McDavid and Marner isn’t worth losing Knies + Niemela + multiple 1sts.

It's not an easy trade to make. A team would basically be gutting their team to acquire him. High picks, Blue Chip prospects and good young players already on your team.

Marner is a Toronto boy. No way he's waiving his NMC.
