If the Leafs don't believe Marner deserves a Matthews type contract then I say they sit tight all the way through to December. Don't give in, give a final offer and leave it at that. If Marner and agent reject it they lose a season and damage a bright career.
- Mr_Smokey


If I was the Leafs I would tell Marner's camp, our offer is good until the start of the season. If you haven't singed by then, we will let you sit for the year. The cap hit goes up as the season progresses, therefore your deal is based on cap hit. The longer you go in to the season, the less we pay you to adjust for the cap implications. (They should have employed this method with Nylander and set a precedent) Honestly, you could do more with 10 million cap space and four 1st round picks.

Let him go! Let him lose his massive endorsement deals! Wash his mouth out with soap for all that talk about wanting to be a leaf forever...total BS. He wants the money over winning. His comments about being disappointed that Marleau was gone...that's partly your fault kid. they cleared room for you, and now you're making it so the team can't make any other moves or bring in support to help you win. Enjoy a career without a cup. This entitled generation is a joke. Let's give everyone a participation medal....yay everybody won...!

Oh I think a couple teams would do that and give up 1,1,2,3

Problem is, Leafs match.

- Aetherial



I would think that the way Dubas has to view is ... yes the Leafs match at that price point... however, I would also think that if the team making the offer sheet were a dumpster fire .. that perhaps a trade is worked out... meaning if the Picks are anticipated to be high enough - then you engage in some kind of deal.

why? because the Leafs would need a good player to replace Marner's role right away...not waiting for a few first rounders to potentially develop.

for example - and this is a silly example - if the OfferSheet was from the Islanders...

then Barzal and 1st or Barzal and Pullock for Marner could be considered.

It's negotiation. He'll sign. And I don't buy this generational entitlement thing, previous generations wallow like pigs in excess any chance they get just like any other generation.

there's definitely a generational difference... the previous generations wanted to be rewarded for what they had done... the young guys want to get paid for what they "MIGHT" do.

I don't think so ...

The same chimp (Dreger) that was going on about 11+ million dollar demands came out in late June and "clarified" by saying MM wanted short term and demand was never 11+ ....

I think he's probably 5 x 10'ish and the Leafs were 8 x 10'ish or 5 x 9'ish.

Stalemate for now ....

- The Law


just for clarification....

the "chimp" is actually a donkey

and that was probably the 200th clarification or elaboration he gave on his previous elaborations and clarifications.

I really hope someone calls Dreger out in the public realm for all the OfferSheet garbage he spewed since October of 2018.

Dreger would simply point to the Aho offer sheet and tell you he was correct all along.

Well, players dont get paid much for what they had done, they are stuck with the ELC the first 3 years.

So maybe Marner wants to be paid for what he has done

Wait a minute. I thought that was Ek, on his way down to ice service for the cup presentation.

Are you telling me Ek is Bergy !?

Maybe Darren Ferris wants to prove what a great agent he is. In the NHLPA website under certified agents, Most agents list the school attended and the degree attained.
For Ferris it's attended York University. It must take a special talent to flunk out of York.

Killer Marner one year offer sheet back on the table again.

I'm worried because Ek says the Leafs employees are worried.

oh I know he'd try that dodge... fact is he's been spewing speculative crap as "insider info" since last fall...

and there is zero factual evidence that there has been an offer sheet to Marner as of yet.

there's been one weak ass offer sheet made to Aho - nothing else.

if there are no further offer sheets, and in particular no very high ones (4 1st round pick category)... hopefully it will shut him up

it is like having Steve Simmons in a nicer fitting suit on TV everyday...

annoying consumption of bandwidth - nothing more.

Ek is an artist.

Let me guess Max Salary = $15.9 million for one year - does that get if done?

I don't know. I'm not Marner, Ferris or Eklund.
