4 1sts level for Marner or Marner doesn't sign the offer sheet.
Leafs would very quickly match thatI'd send Marner a 10.5/season offersheet. Hell make it 10,500,000.01 so we can say he earns more than Kane.
Two firsts, a second and a third? Wouldn't be a bad pick up for someone out there.

Well I would hope that Marner making one cent more than Kane isn't the deciding factor for Dubas......Didn't Dubas say something along the lines of Marner not making as much as Kane?
You can't be this obtuse can you? You think the endorsement money in other cities is comparable to that he makes in Toronto? I know you want him to sign an offer sheet for whatever dumbass reason but its not happening. There is 0 chance.

Only way there's a chance leafs don't match is if it's 4 firsts on the table. 2 1sts a second and a third is not enough for Marner, and if Dubas took the compensation for that he should be fired.
That wouldn't be an optimal scenario for the leafs obviously, but they'd still match imo. As long as they draft well and inject youth into the lineup on ECL deals they'll be fine (the drafting part will be hard but we're off to a good start with guys like Dermott, Johnsson etc. And Marlies doing well like Bracco, Sandin etc.)That’s why I saw 4 yrs max so at end he’s a UFA.
Toronto matches they are royally ****ed the next few years.

You think its smart to over pay a player while giving up 4 unprotected firsts. Well having to sign Rantanen? They're very comparable players so I'm sure he'd want the same money. It would be catastrophic for that team to do that. Lucky for them you're not their GM. Marner is the least likely of any of the Leafs to sign a offer sheet and anyone who doesn't see that is not capable of a critical thought.
Hurricanes maybe a good fit as well. Will need to get over the cap floor.
Pretending you actually know that must be cool.
None of us has any actual facts.
I have seen people here saying he should get exactly what Matthews got.
I have seen people here saying he should get 9.3m
If that latter amount (or close) is what the Leafs are actually expecting I would venture Marner would sign (or let the Leafs know he has) a 10.5 million 5 year offer.
Why on earth would he sign an offer sheet with Colorodo? Even if they offer him more money his endorsements would dry up completely in Toronto and would make less overall. He would be moving away from the area he spent his entire life growing. Leaving all his friends and family. It makes no sense by any accord. He is probably the least logical player out of all RFAs to be targeted or to sign an offer sheet. Kapanen or Johansson make tonnes of sense and is very plausible. Marner none.
3.4, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0 offersheet over 4 years. Averages 4.225 million per year, just within the limit of costing a 2nd round pick. Also takes him to right to UFA, where he'll be in line for a big payday, with his contract having risen every year. Great move for a team with cap space that needs high end prospects/players, but a very tough choice for a cap strapped team like TML.Yup, Kapanen and Johansson should be targets for the Oilers and a number of teams!
Would Toronto not match 4 1sts?4 1st for Marner or they match
Let's think through this. Why would Marner sign an offer sheet below the 4 1sts category?
If Marner is looking for an offer sheet, there will be a bidding war for his services like a UFA. Winning that bidding war will go above $10.6M/yr, and likely involve a 6th and 7th years on the contract which will push it to 4 1sts even if the AAV is below that $10.6M level.

The team trying to sign Marner is going to want Toronto to decline to match, and I don't see any way Toronto fails to match for 2 1sts, 2nd, 3rd. So if you actually want to win Marner as an RFA, you're going to need to offer a 4 1st offer sheet.
I'm not guaranteeing Marner will sign above $10.6M/yr. But if he's willing to do that, why bother going through an offer sheet process? He will just sign a deal with Toronto and be done.
4.2M might get some action on those good but haven’t fully blossomed players like Kapanen
