ParticipantI’m pretty sure he’s going to waive his NMC if he doesn’t want to play there lol…
like Marner did?

Participantlike Marner did?
Toronto was poor asset management due to how the team was built and their stubbornness to stick with the core four, that situation could’ve been avoided had they delt with it earlier.
the way you’re putting it is that players shouldn’t take advantage of their NMC, which was provided to them by the GM when they signed their contract.

you’re right, GMs are at fault 100%.
I would never as a gm give a NMC. never. nothing good can come out of it.-

yeah, giving them out like candy is definitely a bad idea, but for certain players I understand why teams would do that. it’s also a matter of mutual confidence, not all players that get a no-movement clause will try to backstab the organization later on lol.

not even. you’re fucked. let say a player with a NMC changes is mind and wants to be traded, we saw that often. GMS have no options, they trade the guy.
but that doesn’t work the other way around!! well, not really, we do see it sometimes.
if you never give NMC… it’s pretty simple. we’re happy, we keep you, we’re not happy we trade you. and the same thing for the player, he can ask for a trade whenever he wants. fair deal for both sides.-

in Marner’s case they even had time during his contract to trade him before the NMC kicked in, and they decided to stay put, wtf.

yes, it’s also a way to lower the cap. we’ll give you less money but we’ll throw in a NMC…
I still don’t like it and would do without.-

I still don’t like it and would do without.a 10 or 15 team no-trade list is the way to go…

pretty cool how Caufield’s contract is built, he has a 15-team NTC for 2028-29, a 10-team NTC for 29-30, and a 5-team NTC for 30-31.
