Marner And Nylander Have To Be Traded

Created by: KingExLeafs
Team: 2023-24 Toronto Maple Leafs
Initial Creation Date: May 16, 2023
Published: May 16, 2023
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Nylander will ask for a big raise on his next contract, and although he's a great player, Leafs can't afford it, not with JT still on the books.

Marner is and never has been an 11 million dollar player. He's an elite and well rounded play maker who is great defensively but he disappears in the big games.

Not sure what the motivation would be for Flyers to take on two years of Marner and trading two years of Konecky and two years of Provorov for about the same cap.
Is Wilson... that special now?

Can’t afford to extend nylander for probably 2 million or so more than he makes now but can bring in Wilson, bertuzzi and Konecny?
They can afford it, only one year of JT with the matthews and nylander extensions, they can make it work if they want too.
No trades they would make this summer are totally cap related, more about changing the core of the team. They can afford what they got now, just probably isn’t the way to go.

Sharks laugh. Taking a cap dump on a useless player to move up 8 spots is not remotely worth it. Do it for a 4th.

I would rather have two really good players making 5-6 million each then an elite player making 9-10 million.

This has fixed all issues, thank you.

Conversely you could just trade Tavares

JT is untradeable. He isn't going anywhere.

JT has control. He has a NMC. I think he wants to stay a Leaf.

You will need to buy out murray or put him on LTIR. Nobody will take the contract.

People said the same thing about Mrazek last year.

A joke for the caps, they would not give up Marty and Wilson that easily, sure the talent is there but Wilson is too special to send off unless the package was heavier in the capitals favor.

LTIR is a legit avenue to put him on and not give up any assets to pay someone to take that contract.

I doubt the Caps will get a better player than Nylander IF they decide to trade Wilson.

I agree, but maybe Murray wants to play next year.

It would have to be more enticing for them.

They aren't trading Wilson so it won't matter either way

More so pointing out the false statement of they “have” to trade them cause of the cap. I think they should trade Marner because that’s 11 million to spread out, I’d rather keep Nylander as even with an extension he’s cheaper than Marner

It was not a false statement. The cap is barely going up. You add Matthews's extension and it makes it even harder to ice a competitive team in the playoffs. And you can't give everyone raises because you like all of them.

I think having three players making 10 or above is a recipe for disaster as we've seen. I would want Nylander to stay if JT wasn't here. And if the Leafs decide to only trade one of these guys then they won't have any playoff success.

The Flyers aren’t trading for any of the big 4 guys because they don’t help the rebuild
