Description

3rd pair is just stopgaps until Morrow and Nikishin are brought up.

Prospects who could make pushes or are expected to land a roster spot over the next year:
J. Blake
F. Unger-Sorum
S. Morrow (after NCAA season is finished, expected)
A. Nikishin (after KHL contract expires, expected)

With the cap rising and a Jarvis bridge deal (would much rather long term), Canes have enough salary coming off the books and enough prospects that should make the roster over the course of the next 2 seasons, that they can extend both Marner and Slavin with relative ease.

Trades

CAR

Marner, Mitchell ($5,451,500 retained)

Additional Details:

Assuming he waives after Toronto gets knocked out early again. 3rd party eats the retention for whatever, too lazy to do.

Necas, Martin [RFA Rights]
2024 1st round pick (CAR)

Additional Details:

Condition 1st depending on Guentzel trade. If the 1st is transferred in the Guentzel trade, this 1st becomes a 2025 unprotected 1st.

CAR

Retention for Marner. What would be the price.

50% retention on Marner costs another 1st at a minimum. See the Patty Marleau trade as a reference. And if it's a late 1st two drafts away, it likely takes more.

Canes fans rule 😂🤣 - hard to get anyone to care about your team unless you involve Leafs Nation somehow. Makes total sense that Marner leaves hometown and centre of hockey universe to play for a small market team 🤦🏻. Despite playing in the easier division, I’ll take Leafs chances in playoffs over Canes any day

That was more than 6 million in a flat cap, you're not going to get a 1st for 5 mill in retention with the cap starting to jump again. Bad comparable, look more closely to the Bailey dump, since that was actually slightly more than the Marner retention would be.

Either way it doesn't matter because Necas + for rental Marner is a beyond stupid premise to begin with.
