very nice joke mcdavid will be an oiler for life

Doubtful. My bet's that he walks like Tavares did in free agency. Can't imagine he'd want to toil any longer under Katz and his merry band of misfits.

This deal is pretty funny when you actually look at it, Funny in a bad way. When Mitch Marner is the best piece going to the oilers and the other pieces are not that good to start with.

Any trade with the leafs would be built around Mattthews or Reilly heading to Edmonton not the guy who is viewed by most as being a passenger on the lines he plays with

 

[Marner4Life]

Mathews retained 50 percent + Nylander. Done

No retention we will just take Kassian too! Cap reasons.

 

[Confucius]

After being in Edmonton if McD did want out he would want to go to a winner of an organization. TO ain't that

It's home, once a Leaf fan always a Leaf fan. Many x players admit it after their playing days.

Is the Easter bunny still dropping by your place?

 

[LouJersey]

Can any Toronto proposals be banned please? Maybe make a sub board for them?

I actually think McDavid will be a Leaf after his contract expires. That is, if he is not traded earlier.

 

[Raymond foley]

Wi

Toronto doesn't have the pieces however much it'd be cool to see him and Matthews play again.

ll have to wait 4 years to be a UFA

 

[PoutineSp00nZ]

Wrong. He grew up in Toronto and his entire family are Leafs fans.

Every Canadian player was secretly a leafs fan growing up!

Meh. How about this?

To Oilers: Nothing.

He'll leave there soonish anyway & the Leafs can just wait & sign him for nothing but money, when he wants to come home.

That’s what the Leafs should do, they will have the cap space after Mathews signs with Arizona when his contract expires.

I honestly expect a McDavid trade at the 2025 draft

Time to save 15m cap space.

If the Leafs wanted a super skilled player who couldn't lead his way out of a wet paper bag they'd trade for kessel again at a fraction of the price. McDavid is pretty much a pre-hotdog Phil Kessel.

 

[Unbiased Fan]

so... a good player, a prospect, and injury prone goalie (with 2 more yrs @3.8m no less.. basically cap dump) and 2 late-ish 1sts... don't see it

Marner is just a “good player” like some one who should be on 4th line but can be comfortable in a 3rd line assignment and maybe even move up to a top 6 role in a desperate circumstance. I agree

 

[jonlin]

Mathews signs with Arizona

I dont think thats very likely if Arizona keep on beeing a bottom-feeder.

Stay strong, we’re all rooting for you.

Probably wouldn’t be smart for Toronto to trade the best goal scorer in the league, who also plays great defensively, for a soft “centre” that skates fast to one zone and coasts back to the other. Especially adding to picks or prospects to that.

 

[RC51]

Ok I agree with McDavid to the leafs. MY habs are in a full rebuild so no problem letting the Leafs win a cup. The oil has won cups ( gretsky years) The Leafs are way overdue. Now McDavid has NEVER lead his tean to a cup so although he is not a bust he sure NO GOD So the max the Leafs offer is a 1st and a 2nd and McDavid at 50% retention. Now on top of that I am willing to send Chariot as " goods on loan " for 6 months. Of course in 2-3 years Habs want a free 6 months of a leaf player.

Talk about pumping your own asset while downplaying someone else's.

Starts with Matthews. I don't see Toronto doing that sooo.

Mitch Marner(50% retained), Jack Campbell, Morgan Reilly, and two firsts

 

[Nylanderthal]

Edmonton doesnt have to "honor" his choice of destination. His contract still has a long way to go

I guess you missed the part in the post you quoted where it says he has a nmc as of the turning over of the nhl calendar.
If he keeps quiet on his demands til that kicks in he has full control of the situation including not attending camp.
The best player in the world has a nmc, he holds ALL leverage

 

[Nylanderthal]

Starts with Matthews. I don't see Toronto doing that sooo.

In this hyper unrealistic hypothetical situation we’re discussing where mcdavid asks out he’s surely coming to Toronto to play with Matthews. They’re good buddies and share an agent and work out in the summer.
Also if HF loves getting horny over Matthews walking from Toronto in two years over baseless nonsense how do you think it’ll be for Edmonton those two years they have Matthews locked in?
