000 interest in this for ANA.
‘24 ANA 1st - Not available, certainly not for a pending UFA
Zegras - Not available, and I’d keep him at $5.7M over Marner at $12M any day (not saying Z is better, but Z + $6M is unquestionably better)
Gibson -
Irrelevant. Not waiving for TOR
Marner isn’t worth any piece of ANA’s core, especially as a UFA that doesn’t fit Verbeek’s mold who wants $12M+. If you think there’s a trade that doesn’t include any of Leo, McT, Zegras, Gauthier, Mintyukov, Zellweger, or the ‘24 ANA first, all ears. But I think someone else will give up more for him than ANA.
Also, outside of those guys, Gibby, Fowler, and Gudas are all well known to not want to play for TOR and have the trade protection to veto it. You’re down to the likes of Vatrano, Strome, Lacombe, and the EDM ‘24 1st
