With Nylander getting $7mil, there is no way Marner signs for $9. Dubas blew that one.
So if Nylander gets put on Matthews wing for an entire season as he should be, and bags 70+ points next season did Dubas still blow it?
Marner only got the points he did this season because he played with Tavares. If he still played with Kadri and Marleau he once again would get his 65+ points and we wouldn't be having this discussion. Kadri would not have had a down year, and Marleau wouldn't have been all that bad. Marner is the object of playing with Tavares as Tavares is the object of playing with Marner. As is Hyman.
Still doesn't make him better or more expensive then Kucherov or Kane as a winger.
Marner signs for under 10 million a season or the Leafs should trade him or let him be OS. Use money and picks to better team for the longer term.
