NSH declines. Not because of value, but because NSH isn't going to be the place that is going to resign Marner to the contract he wants. So NSH isn't going to give up their top 2 LW prospects for a guy who won't be with NSH in 2 years.
And before cap space is a concern, just because NSH has the cap space, doesn't mean they will use almost all of it to sign one guy. They have plenty of other concerns, including Saros's contract who is up at the same time as Marner.
