I just went through this guys resume. He’s the real deal. Everywhere he’s played, he’s been a winner. He’s had the longest point streak in WHL history. He lost the Memorial Cup to the juggernaut London Knights and scored their only goal in the final game. Second team all-star in the NCAA as an 18 year old. He’s been sanctioned at the World Juniors with team-mates who had a difference of opinion with the European style of refereeing. He stood up for his mom, at a restaurant/bar and punched out a guy harassing her. This guy has the fire in his stomach. Grab a character player with offensive upside. And for a change, he’s a Canadian.
Would Chicago do 4th over all in 2026, Leafs 2nd round pick 2026 and Edmononton’s 1st in 2027 or Frondell for the 1st overall?
I doubt it. They’ll just take Caleb Malholtra or Reid or Verhoeff and call it a day. They already got a small one-way winger in Bedard. They don’t need McKenna or 1st overall that bad.
Ok little pedo.
Let me guess, you were on here going on like a loser about how “great” marner is cause finally scored a goal in game where his won 5-1.
Of course something positive happens and you are still whining.
Such a loser.
Get a life, you’re pathetic.Ok FakeAOC. Let me guess, you’re a middle aged libtard and you still can’t put together coherent sentence.
Mckenna 2024 stats – 129pts in 56 games
Marner’s last season in the OHL 116pts in 57 gamesBut the leafs need a big Dman.
Maybe trade down to 3rd or 5th overall and get a 2nd rounder or even the Canucks 2nd 1st.Not sure I trust Chayka with this.
McKenna is nowhere near as good as Marner overall especially because McKenna can’t play defense at all.
Doubt the Canucks would give up that much for 1st overall but if they’re that stupid, great, do it.
Leafs would be way better off with Keaton Verhoeff or Chase Reid and a late 1st (JP Hurlbert or Liam / Markus Ruck) than McKenna.
I disagree. McKenna is exactly what they need. Leadership skills and a player that would be a spiritual leader. It’s more than just offense. There needs to be accountability and someone that’ll lead, not follow. By year 3, he’ll be a top 10 player in the league. I’m taking that all day long. Sure, Leafs need defense, but that can be acquired in a trade. Get the guy with intangibles. 1st overall picks are a rarity. Use it wisely. Unless someone comes in and offers a 3rd pick overall and a top 10th overall, you don’t make a lesser deal.

McKenna has ZERO defensive game. Marner is an elite two-way winger. You’re a total libtard. Get a fucking clue.[/quote]

McKenna is closer to Nylander than he is to a “spiritual leader”. He couldn’t even lead Canada to WJC gold. McKenna is all and only offense. He’s not tall, he’s not heavy, he doesn’t play defense and he’s a winger so there’s no strength up the middle of the ice either. McKenna is not an intangibles type of player nor is he a generational talent like McDavid.
How much luck have the Leafs had in acquiring defense in trades the last 10 years? Oh right, it cost them top prospects and 1st round picks and they still absolutely suck defensively.
The Leafs can’t tank for another 2 years. They’re better off trading down, getting Keaton Verhoeff and adding more assets to the farm system. Keaton Verhoeff can develop the next 2 or 3 years so he’s protected from the garbage that is this current team until they have a 1st they can tank for again after they trade Matthews and Nylander.

Don’t think anybody is going to give up a lot to trade up but the Leafs should do their best to trade down. McKenna doesn’t fix this team. He’s the absolute wrong player for this team whether they rebuild or not.
So Mckenna is the wrong player but Marner isnt?
Ok
