There’s no denying that JJ has flaws, his decision making can be questionable which is why he shouldn’t be the primary shutdown guy on his pairing, but he has proven he can be very effective alongside someone who can help him take care of the the opposition cycling the puck & forechecking. See his stats in CBJ w/Savard:

Also, he was playing a top 4 role at the start of the season with Marino & he conceded shots & scoring chances at a lower rate compared to the rest of the team.

Sorry, even if he has improved in Pittsburgh, he's not an asset that Toronto is looking for. They have Rielly, Muzzin, Sandin and Dermott on the left side; they need a reliable RHD.

Johnson and Hornqvist for Marner is a non starter, for the love of god, please stop proposing it.

Well, what if I told you Johnson is capable of playing the right side? He actually has been asked to play that role on the top pair many times in his career.

There's really no way to argue with you.

Hornqvist's deal is way worse than MM's, same goes for JJ's. Unless you add Poulin and a 1st TOR doesn't even consider


The only reason why their deals are worse is cuz they’re in their 30s. If they were in their 20s, you’d take this deal in a heartbeat. Heck, even now, they have more use on Toronto than Marner.

Sorry bud, no. No trade for Marner with Johnson is going to be taken seriously.

Well, I admit that the value may not be there, but with Marner's large cap hit, it's gonna be very hard for a team to be willing to give up assets to take him on, especially with a flat salary cap. So they'll have to settle for something like this. I really don't think it's as bad as you're making it out to be anyway.

Toronto is not trading Marner. They don't have to "settle" for anything.

I mean, I've seen a lot of people suggest it & looking at their cap situation, it's definitely a possibility.

That's awful value, also how if JJ a top pairing guy, he's a 6th d-man at best...
