Thread: Short term risk for Marner
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TH13</b></div><div>Honestly he is just trying his best to get his client the most amount of money in the long run.
Its just his transparently low blow tactics that is upsetting most of the Toronto fans.</div></div>

The whole leaking to the media and showmanship he's using are just garbage. Be a professional, you aren't the rock and this isn't ballers. What pushed me over the edge was when the Leafs leaked their contract offers (3 at under 8, 6 at under 10 and 8 at under 11) and Ferris responded with we want 10.5 x 3. That is just a joke.

I'm almost at the point where I'd say to Mitch to his face, if you want to be a Maple Leaf you need to find a non idiot agent. This has been the circus we wanted to avoid.

Thread: Contract Controversy
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TH13</b></div><div>To be fair to everyone I was tagged in this and am viewing this after I got back from the bar so I haven't read all three pages attached to this post so I apologize if I am repeating things people have already said.... This is how I see it,

1. Nylander asked for 8.5 and Dubas countered with 6.25.... they settled for 7mil. If Nylander with Matthews as his centre can't create value at 7mil leafs should trade him straight up. I agree he should get a fresh start this year that lasts until mid december, can't cut it then you should move him.

2. They gave Matthews a blank cheque... straight up. not saying thats bad not saying its good.

3. Marner's camp is trying to get as much as they can out of the leafs by throwing out crazy values that they think he is worth. I believe they will come back to earth and sign a 6 year deal around 9.5mil or a 2 year deal thats being reported around 8 mil.
I think whats throwing everyone off is Marner's agent saying he is worth mcDavid money. I think the league has shown no one wants to pay him that... as there haven't been any offer sheets as the Marner camp was expecting.

The only leaf that has taken a discount is Tavares as he was reportingly offered more than 13mil a year by San Jose when he hit free agency.

Thats just my 2 cents. have a good night everyone. I know I already am.</div></div>

Correction, Tavares was offered 15 million by the Islanders and 13 from the Sharks. He should never have been offered that in the first place, but he did take a discount regardless. I think Marner’s dad is the one who thinks he is worth more money than McDavid. And you are right about Nylander and Matthews.

Thread: Marner Doesnt Owe Toronto Anything
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TH13</b></div><div>Leafs fans agree that Marner is a premier talent.... Kane with three cups got 10.5.... Kuch gets 9.5x8 with 120 points and leafs owe Marner with 94 points over 10x3 ?
I might not be good at Math but that doesn't seem to add up.
He doesn't owe Toronto a discount but market value looks like its around 9.5x5 doesn't it?
I feel like I'm taking crazy pills
Leafs have offered him 10-11mil at 7 years... is that not fair ? I don't think you can say they don't want to pay him with that report. he'd be the 2nd highest paid winger in the league, assuming it was over10.5</div></div>

This is a circular argument towards insanity that only Dreger, Paul, Ferris and this chub who made this agm can understand.

Greed is not the fundamental driver for human beings. But it is for some nitwits

Thread: Marners camp has lost its mind
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TH13</b></div><div>As a guy who loves Marner's game both skill and the effort he puts out, at 3 x10m or 3 x 11m as has also been reported. leafs would be better off with 4 firsts and the cap room.
Which is also why I think no one will offer sheet him because they would be helping the Leafs out.
Leafs with 10mil in cap space a 4 firsts to trade to plug some holes.... I don't think any team right now in the league wants that to happen.</div></div>

Good point. So many look at the compensatory picks only. The Leafs would have 10m they have allotted on other players. Maybe not this year as it's late in the UFA season.
And all these Leafs haters, saying the Leafs should sign Marner at any cost. They never seem to suggest that THEIR team makes an overpay offer sheet to Marner.....no it's just the Leaf that have to overpay.
