Wow. A 2nd for Namestnikov?? A 3rd for Vesey?? Someone giving up something for Shattenkirk?? Vegas, way over the cap, taking Smith?? Strome only one maybe close, but not Calgary.

If it's that easy to get rid of players Toronto matches and off loads their unwanted players....

Marner is overrated in the media and on this site. His totals were propped up by JT being awesome. All the advanced numbers scream this, even the dumb numbers do too (jt's point totals did not increase, while Mitch and hyman's went up by alot, showing that JT was driving the line and boosting others numbers).

If you want to overpay the **** out of him, tie up too much cap space for him, and give us 4 unprotected picks,
Please be our guest

I would gladly get Marner on a plane to NY if thats the overpayment for him. Im taking those picks! Oh my..

I think Toronto matches.

That Minnesota deal...woof

The overpay for Marner? You guys just sent Nylander a huge contract, a fruit basket and then some, and now are looking to unload him. Unreal. The fans always side with management when a player is barking for a big contract.

The NYR have a top-3 farm, arguably the best, after this draft in June. The four unprotected are extremely unlikely to be anything special. Take em.

To guess which one of 29-30 teams will land a player is not easy. They can find another club to take Smith.

Toronto probably matches this offer.

This is a point I have been trying to make. Although I think Mitch is a great player. You take JT off his line and he probably puts up 70 points.

Which would be fine, but if you're Gorton, you have stockpiled so many picks to a point where this can be a move you swallow.

The trades for picks are all overly optimistic, I think except for Vesey. Remember, that is the Islanders pick which will be about 20 picks later than the Oilers.

I agree. It's a bit of an overpayment to match but who cares, it's Mitch Marner. You don't let a guy like that get away by offer sheet. Dubas will find ways to clear cap space if he has to.

Also, the Wild say no.

Is there any chance you'd take him if the deal was modified or absolutely zero interest?

I think you may be mixing up the format for the offersheets in CF.

The contract is divided over 5 years. If you look at the rfa signing list you will see it is 11x7.

Oh. Still.. its overpayment. Id take those picks tbh.

If you change Shattenkirk to Skjei. Or add the Rangers 2019 1st rd pick. Something like that would interest them...

No interest for me, even with retained salary. If we need a RD, I'd rather go after Faulk and I think we could easily get him if we sent the Canes Zucker.

ahahahah, the OP might be bad but YIKES

Good luck resigning all those prospects with 3m$ left
