4 1st round, not a single team will do that

You think the leafs would let Marner go to Montreal?

I think there might be 5 players in the league that are worth more than 4 first round picks. Marner isn't even close. Leafs and Hurricanes would likely retaliate by going after domi/kotkaniemi in RFA with Montreal now being strapped to the cap after this deal

Crosby, mcjesus, matthews and (?)Barkov (?)

You got me on this

I would say McDavid, Crosby, MacKinnon, Barkov, Matthews. Likely in that order too. (Just my opinion)

?? Matthews? Matthews has worse numbers than marner.

Mcjesus
McKinnon
Crosby
Ovi
Kuckerov
Tom Wilson
Barkov
Kappo (idc that he’s never played a game yet)

There’s more but teams like the penguins haven’t had a 1st round pick besides this year in awhile. And won cups and have been one of the most feared teams in the nhl. People tend to glorify late round 1st

The problem is when you trade your first for a star and that pick becomes a #1 defensmen (Byram)

Matthews has worse numbers than Marner, yes. just pure points. But by that logic Jake Guentzel is far better than Malkin, and Huberdeau is better than Ovechkin, Tavares, Schiefele, etc...
On your list, I would agree with McDavid, MacKinnon, Crosby, Barkov, and the only winger in the NHL potentially worth 4 first rounders is probably Kucherov.
Also, a team that can afford 11m+ at this point likely aren't cup contenders. And as someone who watched all 89 leafs games this year, Marner is a Kane. He will put up a ton of points and play beautiful and exciting hockey, but without complimentary pieces he doesn't get you wins. Matthews is a far better player than Marner.

That was for Duchene who isn’t on the level of marner.... and that’s the risk you take. Sometimes your first round pick become yak or pool party also haha

Haha I would hope hubbber is better than Ovechkin he’s a lot younger. Ovi at his age was miles better. We are talking about a 33 year old winger who’s maybe missed 10 nhl games.

Gentz has the 2nd most 5v5 goals last year. He a product of Crosby but lucky for Pittsburgh they have Crosby hah

I compared two players that are the same age hah marner can play 4v5 5v5 5v4 and drives the play well. Those comparisons you just made aren’t as Accurate as you would think. Harsh reality is that marner and Matthews are equally talented as each other. Matthews can score goals marner can set up goals. Both are 80-90 point players. Neither are close to Crosby or Ovechkin at that same age. Hell Ovi is 33 and leading the nhl in goals ha come on man. You’re talking once in a life time players Ovechkin and Crosby. Matthews isn’t on that level. He never will be. Got off topic there but it’s true.

I don't think Matthews will ever dominate like Crosby or Ovechkin and I didnt say that. What I was getting at is if you're saying Marner is better than Matthews because of Numbers, then Guenzel is better than a ton of top tier players. If you are saying he is a product of Crosby, then I could easily say Marner is a product of Tavares. Marner put up 8 more points than Nylander in his first 2 seasons without Tavares. 130-122. I watched all 89 leafs games and I can honestly say as an all round player Marner is the 2nd or 3rd best forward on the leafs. Matthews is 1. Marner being a winger alone, even if he was as good as Matthews drops his value ~10%.

Mathews is no better then Carter from L.A. Philly over paid him too then traded him. I see the leaf doing the same thing. This was a joke . No way the Habs should go after him they should go for Point next.
