I know this likely isn’t know outside of stl, but the blues likely have no intention of trading neighbors unless they are bringing in a true superstar. He was one of the biggest bright spots on the roster this year and had around 25 goals as a 21 year old.

Yeah, Neighbours is not available. Especially for this garbage

No. PIT is not giving up assets for a 3rd pair defenseman behind 58 and 65. Even if we were to do so, Timmins is nowhere near worth a 3rd round pick.

Los Angeles is in enough cap trouble as it is, and this silly trade would ADD almost $8 million to that problem, not to mention taking away one of our only two NHL-experienced RhDs. Unless you're going to take Pierre-Luc DuBois back, any Marner-to-Los-Angeles trade is mathematically impossible because we're not sending cap back via quality players with term like Anderson, Danault, Fiala, Kempe or Moore.

Marner simply isn't a good fit for either SoCal team. You Toronto guys really have to stop trying to shoehorn him in to those rosters.

Would a retained salary for Dubois and less draft picks make the deal more interesting or nah?
