Quoting: mv21227
A 24 year old, top 5-8 winger in the whole league, who has scored 40+ goals multiple times and has put up 100+ points, while also being great defensively, who is arguably the best player on a cup contender is worth that much. Not saying Montreal would/should do it, but it would have to be an absurdly high price like that to get Dallas to even consider it
Cap crunch is why i think he thought you would be cause of Benn's NMC f'ing DAL over.
Where as Robertson has none.
I mean i think it was 9 player with 15m and you need brought back many guys including Pavelski, Duchene and to sign a back up as well as a bunch of RFA's.
But the year after you got like 35 to sign 8 with more flexibility if you can kick the can down the road 1 year on some of them.
Really DAL could squeak it out with no upgrades if they move out Faksa and Pavelskiy/Duchene sign for similar contracts(unlikely but who knows 1 could)
Easiest path is to find a team Benn would waive his NMC for like TML in a trade for Mitch Marner
DAL i think has to pay TML to make that move but could ask for Jason's little brother Nick in the exchange if pressed.
Marner i think could work in DAL, he's gotten to comfortable in TML just being #3-4 guy behind Tavares, Matthews ,Reilly and even Nylander most nights.
Benn brings the Grit TML needs and is an ideal 3rd line Center who can bring a lot to TML
