[Michael Gallagher] Après avoir discuté avec quelques personnes, j’ai l’impression que l’échange avec McDonagh est un précurseur d’une poursuite agressive d’un buteur haut de gamme par Barry Trotz. Les Stans de Mitch Marner vont être insupportables maintenant…

Alright, who on the Predators do we want?
I could see Evangelista, Novak, and Carrier’s rights being part of the return
High end regular season assist producer.
Marner isn’t going to pot you many goals, and he better be locked onto a line with somebody that can finish and also drive play.
Multiple firsts, a right handed defenseman, and a handshake that he’s injured both games against the Leafs.
I know I fantasized about Marner feeding Stamkos the puck but that was eight years ago and I didn’t think it would be in Nashville…
Nashville now has $26 M+ in cap-room with no real big money UFA/RFA to re-sign.
Perfect amount to not only trade for Marner but re-sign him for the $14 M that will make him happy.
*Edit: NSH has that much cap-room even with $11.8 M in dead-cap…LOL*
I just really don’t want to see Marner traded for a goalie. Goalies are so variable and such a crapshoot. Hope they can get some defense or forward prospects
Do people think that Marner is going to waive his no trade clause?
Fabbro plus more
Saros Schenn and a first
I believe the trade would look like- Saros, ROR and some 1/2rd picks.
Saros would stabilize our net for a few years, allowing Woll to grow into the true #1 starter we all hope he will be.
From ROR’s limited time playing in Toronto I thought him and JT played very well together. If not on the same line as JT the centre depth alone of AM, ROR and JT would be absolutely nasty. With Berube being the leafs new coach I could see ROR interested in returning to TOR.
Then some sort of 1/2rd draft pick package that Tre most likely would flip for some solid Dmen.
The leafs need consistently good goaltending, playoff performers and a revamped D core. This trade would address 2 of those areas and give you the necessary assets (picks and cap space) to address the 3rd.
NTC waive aside for a moment, Nashville seems like an unlikely destination… ROR couldn’t get out of town fast enough – now that he’s part of Nashville’s long-term leadership group, do we really think he’s going to give Marner a ringing endorsement?
I’m calling Marner, and Jarnkrok for Sissons, Fabbro, Saros and a pick
So if you appreciate Marner’s high level skills you are a « stan ». What an asshole.
Oh those pesky Marner-stans…….
Interesting how « mitch marner stans » are almost entirely the analytics community… how we got made fun of for years suggesting analytics were useful… now they are incredibly common.
I’m really tired of the divisive rhetoric, I don’t think I have really editorialized my views on Marner whatsoever. In part because I don’t have views on marner as a player personally. Basically all I do is present information and data.
The thing I « stan » is a rational evidence based process, ultimately. Keepin it real or whatever, so when that process gets neglected I reemphasize it. If people are bothered by marners low confidence anxiety pressure complex then they should emphasize that.
Why isn’t anyone talking about replacing Marners’ point production? I want him to go as much as anyone, but we need to replace 90+ points per year in the regular season.
Finding a stud defenceman and a reliable goaltender is the number 1 priority, of course, but we’re talking about trading a PP1, PK1, and 90-point winger here. Who fills those shoes?
Ah yes, Mitch Marner, the high end 30 goal scorer
Almost as insufferable as using the word « stans »
If this trade happens with Nashville, you take the BEST return you can get, even if that return is not for a d man.
I elaborate on that more so by saying it’s not at all a bad idea to simply take back picks and prospects if that’s what Nashville wants to give up. You now have MUCH more flexible trade pieces, and cap room.
Obviously yes, if the perfect trade exists for a d man, do it. But don’t get caught up in the thought it has to be a D. Get the maximum return, and more important, the cap.
Evangelista, 1st, Saros for Marner, Liljgrenn, and Robertson
Marner for Josi.
I don’t think Stan is used correctly here
I think theyre going for guentzel, cant see them trading for marner unless an extension is agreed upon
