Thread: marner ideas
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AEcho</b></div><div>NSH might give him 11. NSH has plenty of cap (about 19mil), and taxes are better in NSH, as their is no state income tax, but they have several RW prospects that arent far away or in the case of Evangalista, just finished his rookie season. The bigger thing is that NSH desperately needs a top 6 center and a 1RD, and they really don't have one in either category that will be ready till at least 25-26 to step into those shoes. Because of that, I expect NSH to be in on Montour during the offseason, especially given the Burnette connection. Meaning if Saros is moved it's likely for a center.

I wouldn't rule out Marner, as a line of Forsberg - ROR - Marner sounds great, but I just don't think Trotz pulls the trigger on moving Saros for a player NSH already has an abundance of talent in.</div></div>

that's fair although i think marner's superb defensive game makes him a little more valuable than a typical winger. evangelista is a great prospect who i think could become anywhere from a 60-80pts player but marner is just an echelon above that.

montour could be an interesting pickup for nashville but i think considering you're halfway rebuilding right now getting a #1 rhd through the draft would be the ideal outcome for the preds. by the time you're in a genuine contention window montour would likely be on the downturn.

it really depends on if trotz wants to base his return off current positional need or not, as i think the chances of the preds getting a better return for saros than marner purely from a value perspective is unlikely

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Carleton</b></div><div>1. Gibson is washed and not worth 6m. Fowler is older and a LD is the last thing we need.

2. Everyone knew Jones wasn't worth his contract when Chicago gave it to him. Pass on that

3. Jiricek isn't being traded

4. Pulock is an interesting target. Doubt Lou moves him though. And Sorokin is a non starter in any trade, you gotta know that.

5. Hall for Larsson was bad, why are we doing Marner for Larsson? Wright still has a lot to prove</div></div>

1. if ur still judging goalies playing behind god awful teams in isolation then idk what to say. leafs only left d signed next year is the fraud rielly and benoit

2. not worth his contract but still better than any defenceman this team has had in my lifetime. will also improve playing on a team that isn't designed to suck

3. depends what the new management group in columbus thinks of him. tossup at this point, would be in a similar vein to the johansen for jones trade if it happened

4. i would have agreed but the isles really left sorokin out to dry this year. maybe he wants out, maybe lou and roy want him out. who knows

5. probably the weakest of the trades i'd agree, would all hinge on wright being a boom or bust
