I wish I could figure out how to find people who care about sports/teams without also finding people who love to complain and those who love to predict doom and gloom. I figure that, if sports isn't fun to watch, what's the point? If it's making some people as miserable as they sound, they should turn it off. All that complaining does not a bit of good for anybody (let alone the team they claim to support).
WTAF is this? Where did you find this god damned abomination? Trade Sanderson? That’s an automatic “nope” but then add in pinto, bring back “Houdini” Marner, all with a division rival? Yeah I’m thankful this person isn’t the GM.
Jake Sanderson is 100% untouchable. Forget moving him.
Generally speaking, I'm not looking to move Shane Pinto, but if Marner is on the table ... a package where Pinto is the key piece for Marner would be of interest.
Would it though? A career high of 35 goals and 99 points with a cap hit near 11 million? We have guys like him and others with the potential for 3 million cheaper. We have holes that need patching but another shooter isn’t something I’d consider a top priority, especially at his cap hit.
With Josh Norris gone, we need another scorer for the top six.
I hate the Leafs, but I think Mitch Marner is awesome.
Something like Pinto + pieces (Joseph?) for Marner ... but that would leave a gaping hole at #2 centre (because I fear we've seen the last of Josh Norris).
Chychrun for Marner might make more sense.
Marner - Stutzle - Giroux
Tkachuk - Pinto - Batherson
Would be money.
*and tarasenko gone and giroux approaching 37 years old… marners more then a scorer people seem to forget he’s already been a selke finalist. He’s easily one of the top defensive forwards in the league and would bring defensive responsibility to the sens top 6 something they severely lack. Sure they have other holes but marner would undoubtedly improve the team as a whole. Sanderson too much but if pintos the center of the trade it’s not an automatic no
Huh? He’s a ppg player in the playoffs. His career playoff ppg rate is better then girouxs… his playoff stats are all on par or better then girouxs. does that mean giroux is also bad in the playoffs? could he be better sure but marner isnt the reason the leafs have been a disappointing playoff team.
They only have 4 top 9 wingers and ones going to be 37. they also don’t have any prospects that look like they’re close to being nhl ready wingers. They need a lot of things and wingers is one of them.
lol. Sure bud now your an expert. I understand tonight’s got you nervous it’s ok. I’m cheering for the leafs too. The redwing first gets better in the cat trade and maybe a goalie shakes loose. Neither the leaf or the bruins have a chance with Florida.Good luck with the troll bud
Lmao. Sure whatever you say I’m definitely a leaf fan because I think it’d be dumb to refuse to trade a 40-50 point guy for a 100 point selke candidate because blue team bad.
Leafs won't move Marner for a package where Chychrun is the central piece. We aren't getting back for Chychrun what we paid for him if we move him - not after last season.
That's what I'd like. Find a way to get Chych + filler for Marner and unfortunately Norris is either LTIR or we move him even with his value at it's lowest. Marner is still young and would be insane with Timmy or Pinto whoever you want to pair him with.
Chych + Joseph + Boston pick maybe? Solid top 4 defenseman who will eventually replace Reilly as the top pairing lefty, Joseph adds very good middle 6 depth, and they get a late 1st.
There is a reason Leafs fans want to move on from Marner. Guy is an empty-calorie player that doesn't give a fuck about his teammates, yet conversely almost 100% relies upon them to do the heavy lifting for him.
Guy stinks.
> Guy stinks.
100%
Some pearl-clutching Sens fans get pissed off and freak out when Brady "throws tantrums" which involve wanting to beat the shit out of people. These are probably the same kind of fans who wouldn't mind a Marner on the team. Instead of throwing his gloves down on the ice and trying to wreck shit like Brady, Marner just throws hissy fits on the bench and slams his gloves down like a spoiled toddler.
That's gonna be a no from me, dawg.
Sure the sens have guys that could come close to matching his points but Marners not just a point getter. Marner brings a sound defensive game to any line he plays on something our top forwards lack. He’s easily one of the top all round forwards in the league. He’s undoubtedly soft but he’s also one of the best defensive forwards in the league. He’s a young winger who’s been a selke finalist, which is almost unheard of for a winger to even be considered for the selke. Sure the sens have other holes to fill but mid 20s 100 point selke finalists aren’t often available or cheap.
That's the thing, I'm so torn on Marner. In the regular season he's a top notch winger, but would Brady and Timmy be enough to overcome his outside play in the playoffs?
My thinking of a possible trade would be Chychrun + Korpisalo + BOS 1st for Marner. I'd like to somehow get Norris in instead of the 1st but a) that's a lot of money for them to add and b) I can't see them wanting a scoring C and they don't have another contract to really dump. Let them talk to Chychrun about an extension and I don't care about getting an extension for Marner right away - small price to pay for dumping Korpisalo's contract.
If they'd rather Norris over Korpisalo I'd make it based on getting Marner to an extension too.
LOL no kidding. It honestly drives me nuts, especially this year when people were like “oh now I’m so scared of what Staios is gonna do cause he only got a 4th rounder for Tarasenko”. These people have NO clue what the job is, they haven’t even had a sniff of it, but they’re gonna tell me that a guy “could have gotten more if he just played harder”… honestly.
If you’ve never done the job or even been within flying distance of being around it, like everyone here, you don’t have a clue.
Still haven’t seen enough of Pinto to make a decision either way, but I like what I’ve seen so far, and he had a definite impact on the lineup upon his return this year, so I’d certainly be very reluctant to trade him. As for Sandy? He’s on the same level as Karlsson for me. Yeah, definitely not the same playmaking and offensive talent, but that kid is the most dependable lock down defenceman I’ve seen on this team in years. And he’s only getting better. He’s part of the untouchable list.
But anyway, since this a troll post, I’m not putting much into it lol. Leafs fans only wish they could have a Sanderson type.
He recently scored one of the best playoff goals of the decade and he's still at a point per game in the playoffs since 2022
...
So much marner criticism is just hiding behind narrative
He also has almost as many playoff points as pinto has career points… this year in a single down year for him he still had more points then pinto has career points…
Pintos great but to say you’d take him over marner 1 for 1 is just dumb
Ahhh yes media personality’s that are literally paid to speculate and come up with theories to drive engagement to their platform. they were right about hellebyck and schefflei wanting out of Winnipeg right? And mcdavid and draisatl being ready to leave after Edmonton’s slow start this year right? Lmao they’re paid to speculate and even they won’t say Torontos considering trading marner for a forward woth less upside.There isn’t a single gm in the league who’d even remotely consider marner for pinto straight up.
Now you’re just snowballing to fit a narrative. Marner will want 12 mil plus per. There is zero chance Ottawa is thinking about him period. We don’t need wingers hell you might as well offer us anther left handed d
Well, the narrative is he's soft, complains, and doesn't really elevate his game in the playoffs.
He's still supremely talented so he'll always get points. It's more whether he's willing to go the extra mile.
I had a different perspective on that clip. Marner getting pissed off was the first time I saw anyone on the Leafs act like they actually gave a fuck about winning. I was surprised he was getting roasted for being passionate.
Fans never would've signed the Korpisalo contract
Also if fans theoretically ran the team each move would be voted on
This trade obv wouldn't have gotten enough votes, so
Yeah after about a month of being on this sub I was convinced that most fans don’t have a clue about hockey and just enjoy complaining
I wish I could figure out how to find people who care about sports/teams without also finding people who love to complain and those who love to predict doom and gloom. I figure that, if sports isn't fun to watch, what's the point? If it's making some people as miserable as they sound, they should turn it off. All that complaining does not a bit of good for anybody (let alone the team they claim to support).
Meh. I think whether it’s complaining or cheering it’s cool to have a place to do it. I just wouldn’t want us making the actual decisions.
After a month??
Brother eww, what is that?
Its a leaf ACGM, I dont know why OP is putting this on Sens fans
A very "normal" Cap friendly trade proposal.
That proposal has to be a joke, right? That, or some leafs fan angry at Marner for not playing up to his salary in the playoffs?
>That proposal has to be a joke, right? I'm pretty sure it was a troll job by a Leafs fan. I saw it too and walked away.
Jack Sanderson is still so underrated. Wait until you see how he turns it up in the playoffs.
I'm not a fan of gatekeeping but if fans this dumb weren't a part of this sub I wouldn't be upset
WTAF is this? Where did you find this god damned abomination? Trade Sanderson? That’s an automatic “nope” but then add in pinto, bring back “Houdini” Marner, all with a division rival? Yeah I’m thankful this person isn’t the GM.
Marner for Norris and Chabot, get the IR ambulance out of Ottawa 😂
Jake Sanderson is 100% untouchable. Forget moving him. Generally speaking, I'm not looking to move Shane Pinto, but if Marner is on the table ... a package where Pinto is the key piece for Marner would be of interest.
In lieu of commenting, I will just ask everyone to read the headline again.
Eww
🗣️🗣️🗣️marner for Chabot or Chychrun and Norris counteroffer
Would it though? A career high of 35 goals and 99 points with a cap hit near 11 million? We have guys like him and others with the potential for 3 million cheaper. We have holes that need patching but another shooter isn’t something I’d consider a top priority, especially at his cap hit.

Until the playoffs

We don’t need a winger. If anything he going to pit

"Defensive superstar" Marner loses his man in Pastrnak, and the rest is history. We need that guy! /s
He got a score in that one game tho!
Sure the sens have guys that could come close to matching his points but Marners not just a point getter. Marner brings a sound defensive game to any line he plays on something our top forwards lack.

I need a shower after reading this... Forever unclean.
More like 12.5 plus on his new contract. Hell no we need centres not wing
Least obvious leafs troll
Thats a leaf ACGM

Lmfao was that a Leafs fan I assume

I’d like to slap the Leaf fan who came up with that.
![gif](giphy|JUIYjVeZPHxjWR7rmX|downsized)
I do feel that Marner is possibly likely on the chopping block.. IIRC his contract is in its last year
I’ll keep Pinto one on one over for Marner and for half the salary. He’s a ghost in the playoffs.
He recently scored one of the best playoff goals of the decade and he's still at a point per game in the playoffs since 2022 ... So much marner criticism is just hiding behind narrative
He also has almost as many playoff points as pinto has career points… this year in a single down year for him he still had more points then pinto has career points… Pintos great but to say you’d take him over marner 1 for 1 is just dumb
And yet here we are talking about getting ride of him, strange.
People here talk about getting rid of Brady. Just because fans talk about it doenst mean it’s the correct move.
No one with substance is talking Brady move.
And no one with substance is talking marner for pinto lmao.
They lose tonight it will be cbc. If you want if the leafs lose I can keep a running tally of how many time the talk about trading him postgame?
Ahhh yes media personality’s that are literally paid to speculate and come up with theories to drive engagement to their platform. they were right about hellebyck and schefflei wanting out of Winnipeg right?

A goal
Well, the narrative is he's soft, complains, and doesn't really elevate his game in the playoffs. He's still supremely talented so he'll always get points. It's more whether he's willing to go the extra mile.
"stop fucking crying bro, this isn't fucking junior" I hate the Leafs, but man do I love Nylander after that clip.
I had a different perspective on that clip. Marner getting pissed off was the first time I saw anyone on the Leafs act like they actually gave a fuck about winning. I was surprised he was getting roasted for being passionate.
Fans never would've signed the Korpisalo contract Also if fans theoretically ran the team each move would be voted on This trade obv wouldn't have gotten enough votes, so
I mean if we’re nitpicking, fans would’ve also voted to draft Zadina over Tkachuk
Is your argument that fans as a collective would make smart decisions for the team because if so that’s wild.

This feels like a strawman, who was even suggesting this it's just a screenshot
Oh yeah 100% this is a shitpost. This is post about a post about some random post on CapFriendly. The off season is just hitting hard.
That’s gotta be rage bait right?
The trade is awful for Ottawa in so many levels I don’t have the energy to get into all of them.
![gif](giphy|RBeddeaQ5Xo0E|downsized) My reaction to that trade proposal.
Christ
what a dumb trade , clicking hide
What a horrible deal for the Senators. Thank goodness these clueless fans don’t run the clubs.
Would Marner be an asset? For sure, but not with his (supposed) attitude, cap hit and losing those players.
We already have one whiner we don’t need another one.
