I doubt it. I think Marner’s position has always been to push for as much as he can get and to use the threat of free agency to help. The only questions are whether he’d really walk and how high the Leafs would have to go to keep him.

Leafs we’re going to pay Rantanen 13.5M, I assume they’ll offer Mitch the same.

If he has a big playoffs, maybe more.

Laughton and Carlo make the Leafs better however they didn't get the best players or the best value for what they gave up.

The prospects and the draft picks don't matter as much at this stage of their "window of opportunity" however the Leafs now have almost nothing left to trade to make their team stronger.

The Leafs really badly needed a Parayko type (hitter, with a PP slap shot) more than Carlo. And the assets they just gave up no longer exist to make that type of trade happen. Carlo is an improvement just not a big enough of one.

Laughton isn't good enough to replace Tavares going forward as the 2C and his 3C abilities are rather questionable. He seems more of a LW than a C with his FOs being under 50% and he's on the ice for a lot of EVGA. He's a hometown kid who throws hits but he gives the puck away a lot more than he takes it away. He kills some penalties. He's going to have to prove he's a lot better than he's shown the last couple of years. Feels like a bigger version of Domi which is not horrible but not great either.

They have to hope they can make some noise in the playoffs and then maybe sign Ekblad as a UFA because it seems as though Florida went all in for this year and will use Jones as a cheaper replacement going forward.

The question also has to be asked, "Why didn't Treliving acquire Rantanen from Colorado?". If he was willing to give up the entire farm and give him an extension why did he ever get traded to Carolina in the first place? Isn't Treliving supposed to be the GM who calls every GM constantly to listen to everybody?

This deadline was a C+ relative to what we gave up, what we acquired and what our direct competitors did. I see Florida as the A+ winner of the deadline, taking their already Cup winning team and added Jones, Marchand and Sturm. That's a top tier improvement for selling the farm.

Under the sage advise of Mark Carney which will be elected by non-citizens after they "disqualified " two thirds of registered voters days before their "election".

Moving Knies means you move him for the ability to replace Rantanen for Marner next year. I also don’t think I’ve seen an explanation as to how we would fit Rantanen in under the cap this year.
- Canada Cup

nor does go into how the Leafs get Parayko cause the blew their wad getting Rantanen. (2 x 1st rnd, Minten, Cowen)
no draft pick left
he ALWAYS knows what's best

Pretty wild, EF saying CAR asked for Marner at first for Rantanen. Tre went to Marner and said they want to re sign him...but would trade him for Rantanen since they could sign Rantanen now.

Marner declined. Would have been a wild trade.

- Santo_44


Marner intends to take this team for every penny, again. His hometown team who he's made almost 100 million playing for by age 27.

He's a poop person who doesn't give a (frank) about winning, and should be told to jog off somewhere else.

All sorts of great economists, some would say the very best economists. Canada is going to declare a beautiful bankruptcy like no one has ever seen.

Call it what you want but it's an easy deduction from observing you act like a complete and total over sensitive child on here every single day.

Good that you feel tough picking fist fights on the internet though, also obviously not an incredibly childish thing. (frank)ing loser 😂

You like to try to sound smart with words like “deduction.” I wouldn’t be surprised if you use AI at this point.

You talk about children a lot. What’s up with that? Kinda creepy.

It's not, it's a word you sort of have to use when letting a grown ass man know they act like an oversensitive child on an internet forum every day.

Thanks for immediately proving it too. AI can't make you be this predictably stupid.

If that's your coping mechanism use it little buddy, I'm okay with that. I'm fully prepared for 5 months of you here daily going "waaaah random stranger on the internet said things I don't like about Marner 😭😭😭😭".

Now (frank) off, man child.
