Thread: Moving on from Marner
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bcarlo25</b></div><div>No. There aren't really any pros for Calgary. Okay, they get a younger player. whatever. They get a crappy contract in Zaitsev, and then they have to pay Marner almost double what they're paying Johnny. Now they're giving up a first? If they were both RFAs, it makes some sense, but it just blows up their cap structure.</div></div>

Love marner, huge leaf fan. Is he better than Johnny Hockey? I wouldn't say that.

They have to pay marner 4-5 million more.

Brodie &gt;&gt; Zaitsev.

AND a first.

So an equal winger, same player really for way more money.
A worst dman better cap hit but longer/crappy deal.

and then their cap is wrecked and have to sign Thachuk.

Nothing here makes sense for the flames.

They have less than 13 mill in cap space without Thachuk signed which you gotta think is absolute minimum 9 million.

Hard no boys

Thread: Bye bye Marner
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LoganOllivier</b></div><div>The Leafs don't have a 1st rounder this year, its technically owned by Carolina meaning the Leafs can't offer sheet anyone where the compensation is a 1st round pick. They'd essentially have to let Marner go for an offer sheet, and then trade the newly aquired 1st rounder for their own first rounder so they could then spend that 1st rounder on Connor. Keep in mind Connor has played the last 2 seasons with Schiefele and Wheeler, those are two extremely high end talents. Who's driving the boat there?</div></div>

Capfriendly has all the rules placed in the armchair GM system, I do not think the first needs to be this year. As we learned this past week the 4 firsts can be within a 5 year window, doesn't have to include next year's pick with that compensation. So I would expect the rules for the compensation for the connor deal I have in place to probably be correct.

Connor has back to back 30 goal seasons, kid is a stud. But it is a good question to put forward.
