<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>colby</b></div><div>they both got traded for 1sts +.
Both teams were actively trying to find partners
both had nmc/mnmc
both the team had reasons to take less to move him.
nsh has non of these. they have no reason to move him, they have the cap to resign him, they have a young goalie they can slowly work in behind one of the best goalies in the NHL and they arent moving him unless they get a haul. moving on from saros + mid 20s RD whos played top4 mins on a cheap cap hit + 1st + 2nd + 3rd for a player who has maybe 3 teams he would waive to and not many people will even be interested in trading with the risk he comes with in the playoffs and the cap hit and the face he has 1 year on his deal and has shown in the past he will strong arm a team to get a bigger $? common man be realistic if nsh is interested and marner is willing to waive it would be a 1st + fabbro and maybe a conditional pick. u would never get fabbro + elite goalie + 3 full unprotected non conditional picks</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AEcho</b></div><div>Even assuming an extension for Marner, NSH declines. Assuming Trotz and Saros can't come to an agreement (but based on reporting today, it seems like they are close to a deal now), you wouldn't get all of those picks on top of Saros and Fabbro. At best you would get 1st alone, but more likely the 2nd.

It's pretty obvious that Marner is being shopped based on everything we have heard, and yes he is elite, but TOR the organization has the least leverage in this situation. With Marner's NMC, he controls who TOR can negotiate with entirely, and other GM's know that. They get to low ball TOR and there isn't much TOR can do about it because it's take a deal, resign Marner (which it's apparent they don't want to do), or let him walk for free next year.</div></div>

Makes sense. I would do it for Saros + Fabro + a 2nd.

But if Saros isn't going anywhere whataryagonnado
