He may well want to bet on himself and sign a shorter deal. It’s a gamble he may get injured, maybe similar to what is happening with Mathews. i guess the players take out insurance on themselves anyway. I think if teams are going to commit 12 plus to a player they would want him long term. He would be the cornerstone they would build around. But anything is possible.
Mitch Marner, Yet Again
- Thread starter SoupNazi
- Start date
If it’s true the team asked him about moving to Carolina it doesn’t sound like they want him to stay. But anything is possible. Lol
The team never asked him to move, Carolina asked if he was available so they checked on his thoughts.
Is he a good teammate? It sounds like most of the dressing room is tired of him.
They tried to trade him.
You don’t ask him to waive his no trade clause without wanting to move him.
He has no interest in leaving T.O. as long as we pay him the same as some other team that really wants him via UFA. That is not the same as staying here and giving even a small discount.
I think you need to change your username from Confucius to Confusion
Matthews makes himself more one dimensional when he plays with Marner....he just tries the Laine thing like you said and he seems to be more into the game when he is forced to create offense by himself. He still isn't that big a creator if you ask me...but he is better apart from Marner IMO.
Hes a great creator imo when he’s not injured Hes as quicc as nylander with the handle paccage and the shot Hes an underrated passer too when he’s not injured Hes a beast problem is he usually is
They were covering their bases in case he was interested in him leaving. Thought this was all common knowledge.
He hasn't been shopped around the league.

If he was willing to take less than market value, I think he would have signed already. Pretty sure we’d offer 11 but maybe not, after all JT may be taking a 4 million cut.
He shouldn't be expected to take less than market value.
Lebrun asked around, he confirmed no real negotiations have taken place, so the Leafs weren’t 100% sure where Marner was at. Carolina asked about Marner, they went to him and said they very much want to keep him but this has come up, where is he at with the Leafs? His camp said they has no interest, end of story, neither side is ruffled. That’s LeBrun doing his homework, I’ll take his view over whatever it is that constitutes hockey talk here.
I guess that’s why the poster stated sure he wants to stay if we pay the most.
No they wouldn't. We are dealing with softcore corporate Canada. Speaking above a whisper is yelling to them. Everything revolves around a victim...just like Mitch, the wealthiest hockey victim in Toronto Maple Leafs history.
I can't wait until he is gone and if not gone I will likely tune back in next playoffs to get a laugh as they exit early.
The Leafs are a brain-dead operation.
No he won't. He is under contract pressure now. His little glass ego to go with his little glass shell are poised to fracture further.
Teams don’t like tampering, if they approach their players and say team x is interested in you, why have a tampering rule? That is unless the team is good with the idea.
Against the flames he’ll feast Hes not going pointless tonight not with matthews and knies
