This is rich coming from the fella that thinks the switch to red and black was a fantastic idea.

Some one needs to offer sheet Marner now.

Leafs would have to scramble like crazy to clear salary in a week.

It would be glorious.

What's the rush? The longer someone waits, the funnier it would be. Final week of camp would be perfect.

It actually helps the Leafs in case Marner doesn’t sign by the start of the season.

If they aren’t at a certain % of the cap, they can’t LTIR Horton and have room for Marner.

With Clarksons contract they can LTIR both and have room for Marner

They’re preparing for a hold out

This would be glorious.

Sign 8 days before the start of the season can’t be 7 because they could jus move Clarkson and Horton to LTIR the.

Signs a super cheap 2 year 7 mil deal.

It would be glorious.

They can be over by 10% until final rosters are submitted, so that day shouldn't really matter. It's more about making it extremely hard to trade any salary away.

So, they won the games he played well in, wow!

They also lost game 6 when he allowed 4, you know when it was hanging in the balance. Win that game and they win the Cup, but he choked and allowed the Bruins to have a chance.

But never mind the 6 games where he allowed at least 4, 2 games of 4, 3 of 5 and one of 6, and guess what? They lost all those games. And that game 3 against Boston allowing 5 allowed the Bruins to take a 2-1 lead.

Plus he would've easily won the Conn Smythe if they won because of him.

He had catastrophic games in some of the biggest moments, and he had very good games in some of the biggest moments. He was all over the place. He was not the reason they won.

You point was the Blues won inspite of his playing only a few good games.
You are working way too hard on your inaccurate assessment, but

It does line up nicely to maximize LTIR, if they can get him for a 10.5 cap hit.

Right,
He only had a .943 save percentage in the 16 wins.
You should come to the realization for the majority of the games he played unbelievably good...but also poop the bed in relatively meaningless games. Again when the series was in the last2 or 3 games, he again rolled a .943 save percentage.
In what world is 16 games during the playoffs at .943 nearly losing them?
Lol, try again, quit while you are ahead.

He honestly should have won the Conn Smythe.

In their wins he was absolutely dominant

yup ....forces them to make a move or 2 to clear up space.


Clarkson and horton will be on the LTIR starting the regular season. So Marner wont sign until then?

Teams can go over the cap by 10% until the start of the season. The timing isn't really the issue, it's any extra trades they have to make to move $.

Wouldn't the 10% cap overage allowance only let them sign Marner for just over $8M?

Dude, seriously, he got shelled in game 6, you know the 2nd most important game. They just as easily could've lost. Goalies tend to play well in wins, JFC how can you say that with a straight face?

They can use off-season LTIR, if they need to.

See above as to how stupid "he was great in games they won" is.
