ParticipantMarner and his mercenary attitude won’t be missed. He’s a manipulating little b!tch! Good riddance. Get players that want to win here. Tavares should not see more than $5M per season on a 2 year deal. Get a good 2C that is defensively sound.

If there was any good UFA C, I’d say yeah but there isn’t. He isn’t signed yet by the Leafs so he may go to market.
I think he’ll be offered a 3 year deal with a cap hit of 7.5M by NJD if not signed by the Leafs.
That’s a big hole to fill at #2C.Leafs don’t have that much trade capital, so its going to be interesting these next few weeks.

To match the money, Leafs would need to go 5x 4.5m or 4x 5.6m
who is the LEafs 2/3C options otherwise?

In an ideal world I feel this would happen regarding JT. We aren’t in an ideal world and JT absolutely played as a 2C in the league last year. He’s slowing down but I feel with the cap opening up in the next few years I bet we see some longer contract for him. It also depends on what JT wants.
Ideally, for me, it’s similar to giroux. Something like 3 x 6 – 7. That’s what I think will happen.
Similarly, I wonder if Tree is trying to get Knies on a long term deal. I’d like to see 7 x 8 or even 8 x 8. However, if I were Knies and looking at the cap going up, I’d do like 4years x 6 million.

Would love Tavares to sign the Duchene deal

I think we all would but the problem is Duchene is being paid by Nashville for the next 4 seasons on top of what Dallas is paying him. 6.56M this year from the Preds and 1.56 for the 3 years after that again on top of what Dallas is paying him.

ParticipantThere was an article by Friedman that the Marner discontent started with the choice to hand Mathews the C.. Marner wants to go somewhere where he is the big dog.
I am tending to think it might be Utah that he signs with
They have the money and the owner wants to make a splash
There is no pressure from fans
He will walk into a younger team and get to be the big dog.Marner and his dad will be happy little pigs in shit

ParticipantIMO it’s hard to believe any team is looking at Marner and the way he has acted on the bench and on the ice when things aren’t going his way and thought “Oh ya he’s Captain material”.

Too bad they both absolutely suck balls in the playoffs, especially defensively.
And that’s exactly why this team will continue to lose.

And that’s exactly why this team will continue to lose.I disagree with your assessment of JT. He was ok with whom he played with. The 2nd line was missing a good 2LW.
If the Leafs had better 2LW than Holmberg or McMann, things could of been better for them but they did not.June 21, 2025 at 7:22 pm #10767Aaron

Do you know where that article is? I’d like to read it. Sounds interesting!
Also kind of weird. Most of the time wingers aren’t captains.

Sorry I read stuff on my phone and then can’t find it when I look on my computer.

If the Leafs had better 2LW than Holmberg or McMann, things could of been better for them but they did not.You are free to disagree and be wrong.
The LW situation does suck but isn’t a strong enough reason for the way they disappeared after Game 3. Especially on the PP for which there is no excuse of having any weak players on the ice.
You can’t have Tavares on the same line or even team as Nylander. They are the same type of player. Both defensively inept and offensively streaky. Nylander wins because he is younger and Tavares offensively disappeared vs the Panthers.
It’s great news that Tavares wants more than 5 AAV and hopefully he’s gone because he sucked at his best, he’ll be useless on his next contract as he approaches 40.
