Even with an extension, UFA's to be don't have much more value than they would as a rental. Most comparables Leaf fans come up with are RFAs

"Traded with extension" is a tool fanbases use to convince themselves their rentals aren't rentals more than any real massive value adder in trades.

If Mitch Marner was willing to take the kind of extension that would add value, then he would be resigned and would not be traded at all.

He’s gotta go. We know we lose trade. I’d do it for a young NHL player and a first. You acquire the Dman through Marner’s cap savings.

As an example:
Wright
Sea 1rst

Sign Montour for 7.5-8

That is a solid return and reallocated our cap dollars where they need to go.
You're not getting Wright straight up for 1 year of Marner.

It's difficult to spend 10+ million on a player that doesn't show up for the playoffs. Hard to win like that. Not that I'd know anything about that as a King's fan.

Didn’t you guys recently win 2 cups lol…
 
I'm predicting: Marner for Askarov + what

I can't figure out the 'what' that would balance some value and some cap. But it's not as bonkers as it seems. Askarov wants to move, Leafs fans want Marner gone, and ROR has pushed management in NSH to look at Marner.

Something should be possible.

With a 20 man roster, Nashville is presently less than one league minimum salary from the cap ceiling. There would have to be heroic cap solutions to try to add a 10.9 million dollar body to that roster.

Nashville isnt trading askarovr for a 1 yr rental. He have to agree to an extension.

If no ext then Toronto will hate the return 1st+ high salary+ secondary prospect

True. It's not easy. But Toronto could theoretically retain since the Marner contract is on it's last year.

I don't think Askarov's value is so high that Nashville would turn down a trade for Marner. Even with only one year left, he's got more value than Askarov.

I just think it's rare to have multiple rumours pointing to a deal like this. Askarov's agent, Marner speculation, and the ROR endorsement. But the cap space is the biggest struggle since NSH spent so much in free agency. The chance may have come and gone.
 
I think his value depends on whether he comes with an extension or not

But most likely your looking at a 1st, Roster Player, Prospect kind of deal

I think the return would be simmiliar to what the Horvat return was 2 years ago maybe a little more

I just don't see a lot of teams having the room to take him with out the Leafs taking back Salary, which defeats the purpose of trading him

I think with an extension you could get a top 6 forward, Top 4 dman and a 1st

I always thought the Kraken would be the perfect trade Partner for them

something like

Wright, Borgen and a 1st for an extended Marner I think that would be his top value

I would not move Wright for 1 year of Marner. Additionally, we still are waiting on Beniers new contract after which we won't have enough cap space for Marner anyway.

well, I would assume any team trading for Marner would extend him. but thats fine, I think we pass on Wright anyways
 
What’s your definition of “not much”? Obviously with an extension it would get more of a return but for one full season you could get a a nice haul for Marner. Teams give up 1sts + good prospects for deadline rentals.
I don't see many teams competing for players who ghost the playoffs at the trade deadline.

What's the point of renting Marner? There will be way cheaper rentals that will be more productive than Marner for the playoff run they're rented for.
 
An extended Marner would carry very high value but a 1 year rental at 11M is not getting much of a return.
That all depends on what contract he extends at. Marner at 8 x 8M? Sure, worth a lot. 8 x 12M+? Not so much. Most would agree that the latter scenario is the most likely.
