We learned the 2nd half of this year that if Domi can be just about as prolific as Marner in the same situations (He pretty much was) at a fraction of the cost plus grit, then Marner is surplus to our needs for his price tag.

Yeah, not exactly a 1 to 1, but Domi does have some playmaking chops. The real question then is, is Marner even worth half of his contract? Domi is only making 3 mil.

Players who produce as much as marner are gonna get 10 million dollars. That's pretty much a given. The raise marner is going to ask for will be unacceptable. @MisterMister5893
Assuming Marner isn't traded, I'm really excited to see Berube rip into Marner in the post-game interviews.

Struddy nailed it.

Every GM in the league has seen how Marner has performed in the playoffs every year. And with that huge contract and cap hit, no one would take him. Best plan is to play him all season and let him do his offensive thing. When playoffs start, sit him in the press box and replace him with a Marlie that's playing well
Running the core back would be completely 100% unacceptable. There were long stretches of 20+ games that I didn't watch this year. If all of Marner, JT and Nylander return, I won't be watching a single game. My fandome in the Leafs may be coming to a close.

They're locked in so they're staying put with no move clause. They're going to have to work with very limited cap space to try to build supporting cast who aren't scoring enough. They also need a better goalie. Sorry but you're stuck with Leafs likely never win Stanley Cup in our lifetime. They also gotta rebuild Raptors and Jays and neither looks in good shape either. Leafs winning a cup might actually have better odds. LoL
Problem with keefe is he played the top guys too much and didn’t mix it up. Look what happened when nylamder and Mathew’s were out. He was forced to play differently and the team looked a lot like Florida type of team. So the best things to do is mix things up

Keefe played his best guys because they have the best scoring odds. That's why his record is the best in franchise history. At least in regular season. But they don't produce enough in playoffs and that's to be expected as they're competing against better teams. They need to build a strong second and third lineup and need a better goalie. The core 4 put in good work but they spent so much money there's nothing left for the supporting cast.

@@rapideye85 Babcock wasn't entirely wrong. He dynamically adjusted the players time based on their performance basically rotating the hot hand.
You get something for Marner, a propect goalie and a pick, extend McCabe and sign Pesce as a FA with the cap space. Ask Edmonton if a coaching change can make a difference. I dont recall the Oilers trading key pieces when they turned theirseason around.

If you're a Leafs fan and are upset at what Strutty said about the Leafs, you don't watch playoff hockey after the Leafs are eliminated.
Majority of the time they lost to teams that made the finals in majority of the case. Tough opponents all the time but this year. This was a winnable series. Need a new captain and it can’t be Mathew’s. It has to be a tough guy who is willing to fight for anyone and defend the players. Oriely type. Has to be a new guy. Someone like wendle Clark
If Berube has some big hitters, good goalie play and some decent scoring he can get it done. Need to make the right moves. Like how we got O’Reily in ‘19

For a start - why not just lower expectations with Leaf Fans in Toronto? Before the Leafs have a chance to win - they really need Core 4 upgrades to contend in the playoffs. They are fine in the regular season. It just is tough watching Mitch in the playoffs every spring with playoff officiating. 😀

Marners value will be when he walks in the offseason and you get his cap back.
He is the right man for the job. These 4 princes better show up with passion will he will just rip them apart and call them out in front of the media. NMC? Good luck.
If Marner would sign for 9 or 10 mil would show a lot to the team. If he wants to win he has to give the team a chance to build around him. Same for JT he should sign for 3 to 5 mil deal. No more over paying to keep these guys.
He is an ok coach. Some of Torontos soft players might have an issue with him.
Great show today!! Love the panel. It's such a great forum and when odonkey is there and constantly interrupting the other guys the show is awful to listen to. Loved it today
Dick Irvin? One with Chicago, three with Montreal
No Not a good fit Should’ve waited it out and been more patient Rookie mistake not taking their time and getting the right guy Brind’Amour didn’t resign in Carolina
One step closer to making this team tougher. Now they need to trade Marner.
Edmonton would be a one and done team in the East facing Boston, Florida, or Tampa over the last 5 years too. Edmonton and Toronto are really similar in the end, but Edmonton gets to kick LA ass every year.

One thing nobody brings up is that in the entire history of the NHL only 3 coaches have won cups on different teams. 2 in the 1930-40's and one other, just only rhe best coach in nhl history Scotty Bowman. So very hard for coaches to win on different teams it never really happens. So why not get a coach who hasn't won yet who has a good record , might give u a better chance to win.

Tavares is the only good player out of the core 4 and has to deal with players who don't give him the puck in scoring position. You can keep Tavares and Nylander. Trade the others while their value is high and get clutch players. Domi, Bertuzzi, Jarnkrok are all great forwards as well

I know people aren't going to like this, but Tavares, Marner, and Rielly either need to go, or have their salaries vastly reduced to make space for the cap. Can't do anything about Matthews and Nylander's deals, but Tavares and Marner are on expiring NMCs so we need to figure out something.

I don't know about Berube, the year he won the cup, he was gifted a big team with a hot goaltender. He wont have either of those things here. When the goaltender dried up in St Louis, so did the wins, in the years following his cup win. He is not going to have a goalie win him a cup here in Toronto.
