Rumor: Nylander like Matthews unextended. Nothing to see here.

[Ianturnedbull]

Nylander to WPG would be...just about right.

 

[LeafsFan89]

Honestly, I'm excited.

This team has never sold a high end talent in his prime in the 25 years I've been a fan. It seems every other team sells a guy in this situation and gets an amazing return for him.

You do know this is the Leafs and what applies to the other 31 teams does not generally apply to us right?

 

[Ianturnedbull]

Is this prudent, or is the change for the sake of change?

Be careful how you answer. It's a trick question

Lol when has prudence ever played a role in the things this team does

 

[Larcos_Unal]

C'mon Bundy, turn Willie into a top Dman or a big power forward

 

[SmoggyTwinkles]

Isn't his rumor asking price 8-9.5 million? That's less than Marner's current contract. Marner is gonna want a raise so we're looking at least 11 million for him. If you're asking me to pay one of the two I take Nylander any day.

Yeah,

And this team needs a change, and Marner would accomplish that. He runs just about everything, and we end up playing perimeter pass it around style.

Getting even a decent package for Marner could free up quite a bit of cap, and also force the team to adopt a better playoff style.

Marner was also acting like a little bitch at the beginning of the year. I honestly think he is not a great influence on the team.

I like him as a player, but that's who I'd move on from if we're unloading one of the "big 4"

Tavares.......you don't even ask the guy to waive his NMC, that's just a Sundin situation all over again.

 

[al secord]

Huberdeau and Weegar?

Let me remind you of Treliving's last big trade.......

 

[howlman]

Thanks Marner

 

[notbias]

Point is to keep best team possible on-top of having flexible cap space. End of the day, if trading Willie makes us better, I'll eat crow, but I'd personally rather keep Nylander over marner , if both players returned similar packages.

You'd rather the player who puts up less points and wasn't nominated for a Selke?

 

[Amadeus]

Losing Nylander will hurt a lot. Especially if we don't get much in return.

 

[Metroid]

If they bring back a similar package, yes I keep Willi with the better cap hit.

 

[Golden_Jet]

At least he has a M-NTC and not a full NTC, if I'm the vengefully prick that I've been known to be, I'm gonna feed Groosman such a horrible tasting slice of humble pie, players are going to run from his representation. Tre give that greedy agent a punch in the mouth for all of us.

M-NTC clause is for 23/24, so does that mean starts July 1, I assume.

 

[notbias]

If they bring back a similar package, yes I keep Willi with the better cap hit.

So you take the player who is much worse who is likely asking for over 9? Odd.

I wouldn't do that.

Personally think the wrong talent is being traded, but it is all dependent on the return frankly.

 

[leafan11]

The problem is no team is going to give you any value in a trade without having him extended. How many teams out there want to pay his ask of 9 plus million?

 

[Metroid]

I wouldn't do that.

Wasn't it between 8-9 mil?
I don't think marner is personally 3-4 mil better than Willi, and this is from someone who owns a marner jersey. That's fine you wouldn't. End of the day whatever either of what we want don't really matter. Whatever works best for us to win is ok, even if it means my idea /plan was wrong when and if whatever happens, happens.

 

[rojac]

Whatever happens, happens. My life won't be any different and if you're all honest with yourselves, neither will any of yours.

Letting something like a sports team, which you have no control over, have any kind of serious meaning in your life just seems like a really bad idea.

 

[Trapper]

Treliving is on fire

No Picks
No Depth
No Movement Clauses

No Problem.

Lot of times it seems quality gets moved for quantity, to get a deal done these days with the flat cap.

 

[BallardEra]

Cap space.

Then the Leafs can target Lucic and Reaves.

I mean yeah this is absolutely true for well adjusted grown adults(should be). When I was younger the things that happened affected me more.

Thank you for, yet again, taking time out of your important life to come to a hockey fan message board to tell us how unimportant our hockey team is to our lives.

All 3 start July 1st.

 

[thewave]

Pretty obvious this organization is already going sideways here.
