Quoting: JamieG613
I like this deal more than 99% of the other Marner deals on this website, it actually made me pause and consider it for a second.
I think SEA says yes, and Brad asks for another roster player/near NHL ready prospect (one of Wright/Rehkopf/Firkus/Bjorkstrand?) even if it means that SEA keeps their 1st. Marner for Larsson + is one of my favourite framework, just not sure if there's a "+" that makes sense for both sides
Appreciate it! Couldn't find anything more that would make sense for both teams, but this would leave us with two 1sts, one of which I'd package to acquire another top end D. Chychrun and Theodore are rumored to be available, so as long as there was interest in an extension I might do:
1st + Robertson + liljegren
For
Chychrun/Theodore
Value there is up for debate, but I think this is close and a price I'd probably be willing to pay.
Theodore/chychrun - larsson
Rielly - UFA (tyler myers?)
Benoit - mccabe
Would give us the best D core I've seen in the salary cap Era, and we'd still retain a 1st with space to sign a 2C (lindholm, stephenson, monahan) who could bump Tavares to the 3rd line.
Bertuzzi - matthews - domi
Knies - lindholm(?) - Nylander
Cowan - Tavares- mcmann
Dewar - kampf - Reaves/Gregor
Find a tandem goalie to partner with woll and this is best case scenario for me.
