Player Discussion Mitch Marner - On Hiatus

[kevsh]

Now that Berube is coming in I actually think things are going to play out differently than we all expect.

- Marner won't be traded nor will he even be approached to waive.
- They also don't offer an extension before the season starts, telling him to view this as a "show me" year and both sides can see how things progress during the season before discussing a new deal.
- The arrogance of this organization under Shanahan dictates that they believe that Berube will get Marner to change his approach, he'll be more successful and the fans will buy into Mitch 2.0.
- Then when it's time to talk new deal, everyone wants it. Even the fans.

In short, I highly doubt he's going anywhere unless he and Berube just don't gel and in that case maybe Marner is willing to waive before the TD, or at worst the Leafs trade his rights before July 1 so he gets 8 years somewhere else.

Tavares needs to go then. And the captaincy dished off.

With our coach, maybe Blues will be a great trade partner, Parayko, Binnington and 1st rounder for MM. Even salaries is a close match too.

I think even if the Leafs come out gun blazing and end up top of the league in the regular season.
They measuring stick will always be what they do in the next playoffs.
Would the MGT willing to bet the same horses to perform in the next playoffs? When the results had always been the same? It is not just not having goaltending but the fact that the top guys just couldn't score in the playoffs.
If it doesn't work again(which is very likely), Shanny will be fired before locker clean up day.
If Shanny is willing to trade MM and/or JT, even if it is another first round exits, he could spin it as transition period...and might get another contract.

Cool story bro. Marner's gone.

I think Hayes wants him/expects him to get traded as well.

Nashville'a rebuilding should be done after next years draft. We've drafted a lot of players, traded a lot of vets and have a lot of high picks left.

We needed vet leadership and ROR was guaranteed the 1C position here.

Would you want Marner @ 12 m x 8 yrs.?

 

[notDatsyuk]

Hahaha if you think so there is no changing your mind. I’ve read too many posts.

Anyway, you can believe this, if Marner wasn’t a Leaf I’d only be watching him when he is playing against us. No different than McDavid or even Gretzky for that matter.

So you totally ignore the facts that I present, and get all upset about the little joke? Ok, I'll edit it for you:

There's a fan who quotes one stat with no context as the only reason to keep him. Ripley's believe it or not. salts

That’s an unfair question to ask on this board at this moment.
That’s also why I don’t think he wants to stick around next year bc even if he lights it up and gets 100 assists in the regular season, there will be no extension till playoffs.
I just don’t think MM at this moment has the mental fortitude to stick around and bet on himself in the playoffs.
And I don’t think Ferris will bet on that either.
Best case for Marner is really go to a non playoff team, lights it up(as he will have all the PP1 time and the focus on the PP), then the team misses the playoffs. That way with recency bias, he will get the 12m/yr deal esp teams that think they are a top end talent from winning like the Canes.

But he or she is a Preds fan….

I don’t want him in Nashville or Toronto. Send him to TTOE or Minny

That's high, but we have space and a dearth of talent.

He btw.

 

[TheGreenTBer]

It's all about Marner's brand...he's in the business of making money first...why would he take responsibility for anything that could tarnish his image?

This is true and exactly why I nothing to do with him anymore. He needs to go.

Didn’t even include Marner when mentioning specific names.

Since Berube is our coach, I am going to stick with Parayko, Binnington and 1st rounder for MM with the Blues.

 

[Mess]

Didn’t even include Marner when mentioning specific names.

Also notice how this press release clip is written.

Berube will now move to a Toronto club with much more starpower than the Blues. It seems changes are still incoming for the Leafs – with Mitch Marner a rumored trade candidate and Tyler Bertuzzi rumored to return – but there’s no doubting that the trio of Auston Matthews, William Nylander, and John Tavares has Berube excited.

Berube should also be a good match for Toronto’s gritty young forwards like Matthew Knies, Connor Dewar, and Fraser Minten. Berube accrued 3,149 penalty minutes in 1,054 career games during his own playing career and carried over that hard-nosed mindset into his coaching style. At the least, his appreciation for physical, endurance-based hockey should be a welcome change in perspective as Toronto gears up for another strong playoff push next season.

 

[Niagara Bill]

Just watched Dallas beat Avs. That Makar is a bum. If I was Avs GM I would trade him immediately to Leafs for Marner.

 

[ThrowDemTongs]

Agreed. Let's make the deal.

 

[Gabriel426]

Same as Toews and Mackinnon. Let’s do a JT, MM and Reilly for Makar, Mackinnon and Toews trade.

Think he said Reilly instead of JT

I definitely like that trade but makes no sense for the blues

 

[Kazparov]

Well if he wants out. From his perspective he is better off waiting a year. Then going to a team at no cost to them. The same as what JT did.

Disagree because the Isles wanted JT back. This would be a situation where the Leafs have said to MM we will not be resigning you, we want to trade you and you're not wanted here.

I doubt he'll be traded but we can hope.

No Tavares Marner and Samsonov gives Tre an opportunity to make this team much better in the post season
