Marner's contract is very high but he is the best player in this proposal. Hart is off to a good start but I think most will want to see more before they give him star young goalie proven status. Hart and Knight are interesting goalies. Pegged as the next Price or Vasi but not there yet. Remember the Habs dilemma of trading Halak or Price back when? Not saying Hart turns into Price but I would say Hart has his value back when. Price was full of potential at that point but inconsistency issues. Habs ended up trading Halak and Price turned into a star. Could happen with Hart but only time will tell.
Interesting offer but Leafs decline IMO. No way they trade Marner and risk Matthews walking cause he has less talent to play with up front. Imagine Marner with Torts as his coach? Disaster
We would be a bottom 10 offensive team if we trade Marner. Like we would be rough. Not gonna happen.
Leafs won't trade Marner. That's a good way to give Matthews a reason to walk as a UFA. Matthews and Marner are like Batman and Robin. We can attack them for not taking the Leafs further but they are very good together overall and it's just a very tough division and Leafs have issues with improving the team due to salary cap space. Covid really messed up things IMO.
