To much for marner at that term. Maybe 7 million max

Marner got 100 points, you are going to have to pay him. More than Skinner, If I am him I am asking for 12 million and go from there!

He will sign a bridge deal and get his money on an 8 year extension and be paid as the highest paid player on the team

He won't sign for less, he will still be an RFA for his next deal and will sign for max $$$, Leaf for Life

You are about to hear from the Detroit fans that Hronek is the next Lidstrom.

The second-round pick is inadequate compensation for Martinez, so the Kings trade is short that element plus the compensation for taking on the difference between Marleau's cap hit ($6.25M) and the Martinez reduced cap hit ($2.5M). You owe a player or picks worth $3.75M on that alone.

The very least Minnesota would entertain for Dumba is Kadri or Kapanen, a first and Liljegren, and that might not be enough.

Is Marner deserving to paid the second highest player in the league? Point, Aho, Rantanen would deserve 12m too.

Wild decline and laugh

Did you read what I wrote, pay attention and try to understand that they negotiate. It goes kind of like this, I want 12, we will give you 8, ok I will take 11, we will bay you 9...... etc........ hope you understand.

So its Dumba for a first because those other pieces are the cost to move Zaitsev without retention.

La not retaining to take on Marleau
