Marner is also a massive vagina with zero grit or physical game. McKenna is breaking people’s jaws in the bar at night. I’ll take that any day over a guy who won’t even hit anyone with his purse.

Marner is winning games for Vegas while the Leafs are shit without him. You’re too retarded to actually watch the games where he wins battles along the boards and goes to the front of the net.

Let’s see McKenna try that shit on guys NHL sized and not some drunk random idiot. Won’t happen because he’s a midget by NHL standards and unlike Marner plays ZERO defense.

or send them Nylander.
Matthews to LA to replace Kopitar

Nylander to CHI with 50% salary retained for 4th overall + Sam Rinzel
Matthews to SJS with 50% salary retained for 2nd overall + Misa (or Will Smith) + William Eklund

Leafs draft Stenberg, Malhotra and either Reid or Verhoeff.

Knies | Misa | Cowan
Eklund| Malhotra | Stenberg

Verhoeff or Reid
Rinzel
Danford

Can’t tank again until 2029 but that’s a start to a rebuild.

one day they will tank and rebuild and hopefully get a #1 pick that rebuilding teams need

Rebuilding is about timing. The timing for this #1 pick is absolutely horrible. It just feeds the delusion they can retool. The issue is they can’t continue to tank because they now don’t have their own pick for 2027 and 2028.

McKenna is not good enough to fix this team by himself so all it does is delay the inevitable. A 2-3 year gap between another lottery pick completely fucks up their ability to consistently tank and rebuild. It just creates the illusion that they can retool with Matthews which will fail and leave them with even less time and assets than if they had no other option than to trade him and rebuild.

They have to find a way to trade down, collect more assets, trade Matthews (retain 50% to maximize return) and Nylander (could retain on him too to increase return) and restock the farm for when they can continue to tank again in 2029 and rebuild.

biggest loser energy iv ever seen

Imagine being so blinded by homerism that you can’t see the Leafs are still absolutely fucked and this pick is simply delaying the rebuilding process that is necessary.

Biggest losers since 1967 for a reason anybody in hockey has ever seen.

Mckenna or Stenberg…no other options
unless trading for Mcdavid

Or trade Matthews to SJ for #2 pick ++

Malholtra, Reid and Verhoeff are all very valuable options.

You could get a lot more for Matthews if the Leafs retain 50% of his salary and trade him at the 2027 draft. This isn’t the strongest draft to blow that asset on.

Nylander, though, that would work.

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.

The claim:

“He’s a winner”

The facts:

WJC: Lost.
CHL: Lost.
NCAA: Lost.

Yeah, huge winner.

He’s a small one-way winger. But he did win a street fight so that’s cool. He can help Nylander when he’s high on coke at 3 AM on the weekends.

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 games

But 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.
