No. Acciari plays a role that PIT actually needs. Jarnkrok would just be taking ice time from younger players.

At that price and half retained Buffalo would have to think about that trade. I have my doubts that Matt Roy would sign anywhere for only $5 million, and teams will definitely offer him more.

Love the general scenario. I would probably try to get Brossoit in goal for that money, and worry that Lindholm's best years may be behind him (but maybe it's just a bad fit in Vancouver)>

Overall, a solid new direction if they could get those types of deals on the corpse four trades.

I like a line of Tkachuk-Pinto-Marner but this is a lot of picks to give up

Spamming Ottawa in AGM with Marner trades doesn't make trading Marner to Ottawa any more likely.

Grow up.

I think you're on to something. Maybe sign a center for less than $7 mil, like Monahan instead of Lindholm and offer Roy more. OR, sign someone like Chandler instead of Lindholm get then get DeMelo for $5mil as right shot D.

Of all the teams around the league the Sens and Ducks make the most sense for a Marner trade. Ottawa is closer to home, and Anaheim couldn't be further away. Leafs management should give him these two destinations, let him pick, and make the trade. In a contract year he'll put up 100 points.

if the penguins move acciari they won't be bringing back cap and they will get a low round pick

That's not how it works.

That doesn't matter. Leafs and Marner should rewrite the rules, and end the relationship amicably.

You have two options.



1. You can buy him out.

2. You can wait until he becomes a UFA.



You can't force a trade upon a player with a NMC.

No matter how many times you post it in AGM ...

It's not forcing a trade to a horrible team, it's having a mutually beneficial exchange wherein Marner picks where he goes in a contract year and the Leafs get back cap relief and a couple of picks. Win-win for both team and player.

If Ottawa is a horrible team, then it's even less likely Marner wants to be traded to Ottawa ...

Ottawa isn't. They're on the cusp of the playoffs with the right coach. That's why Marner could be convinced to waive to go there.

Tbf with Marner next years first SHOULD be 20+. Only happens if Marner extends here tho. I think Marner is good enough to warrant that haul.

Only happens if Chabot or Norris are in the deal . We can’t afford it

No for sure. Even if the deal happened as in this post, Norris would have to be moved somewhere else at the very least. Maybe Norris in a deal around Tomasino or Hayton? (I think Norris has higher upside than but higher risk imo so idk the value difference)

Outside prospective. But Marner is EXACTLY the type of player Ottawa should be swinging for.

For as good as Brady is, he's only a All-star level player. He's better served as the team's #2 then face of the franchise.

Stutzle is still young, and he absolutely has the potential to become that franchise 1C Ottawa drafted him to be, but he's going to need a much better winger next to him than Brady to elevate him into that next phase of his development. Marner, despite his playoff warts, is that level of player. He's already what you all hoped Debrincat would be in Ottawa.

With all due respect to Batherson and Giroux, they're not capable of doing this for Stutzle. Marner can. He'd be the best piece Ottawa could hope to get their hands on to further Stutzle's development into that 1C.

Ottawa should do this trade in a heartbeat. That said, maybe swap out Chychrun for Norris, if it's that big an issue though.

Tavares is never going to waive
