Marner wants to stay, should the Leafs re-sign him?
Ойын-сауық
Mitch Marner has made it known that he wants to be a member of the Maple Leafs for a long time and will be eligible for an extension on July 1. Should the team be exploring that as an option? Should the Core Four be given another chance? TSN Hockey analyst Martin Biron and OverDrive host Bryan Hayes chime in.

Nylander, Reilly, and Matthews are already extended long term, so they're not going anywhere. Marner and Tavares are UFAs after 2025. With their contracts being so high and about to expire, the Leafs will never be able to trade them in the coming year (not without having to pay a team to retain their salary so they actually have negative trade value now).

My answer to the question in the title of the That's Hockey episode is: "Hell no." Whether Keith Pelley, CEO of Leafs' ownership group Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment (MLSE), agrees with me that Brendan Shanahan, who I'm worried WILL re-sign Marner if allowed to remain club President, must go in favour of one who will allow GM Treliving to end Marner's time as a Leaf still remains TBD.
The Leafs need a right handed D that dominates. Salary cap space is best used for that. But you have to draft those.

They should be sign him for 15 mio a year 8 years long! And they should be sign Campbell as a goalie too. All that is tge promise is for a lot of goals!
Marner could be the highest paid stick boy in all of hockey history.
Yes, he is a great player and needs protection on his line.
Ideally Traverse is the guy to go . Start by putting him on waivers .
The Leafs finished in 10th place during the regular season - seven points behind the Bruins and three ahead of the Predators. No one should take them seriously until they demonstrate the ability to win a division.
NO WAY, coasting & letting pasternak blow by him for the OT winner confirms he isnt the type of player the leafs need,
But what are you going to get for Warner. He has a no movement clause and other teams know it . Do you think that other teams are going to give up anything good in return . No.
a box of pucks and a bag of tape ... get it done
Y’all should trade Marner for size and defensive depth
It's time the Leafs' Managment to go all Glenngarry Glen Ross on the Marner. Contract Extensions are for CLOSERS!!
There was only two, real major issues that the Leafs encountered.. 1. Our Lack of Team defense was an issue in the first two games vs Bruins.. (that is a coaching issue) he has not been able to get this team to play proper defense the entire time he has been here.. That difference, could have gotten us one or two more games before our back was to the wall.. This is a FACT...... 2, Our Powerplay.. Not adjusting our powerplay to an entirely new zone entry and attack is again ( COACHING )... This team should have raced to the blue line with speed and chased a dump in,,,, then force point shots while crashing the net... They failed to adjust and we missed out on maybe, 15 more goals which would have ended this series... In Everything other area, the Leafs matched or exceeded Bruins play... How do we know this --we went to game Seven OT...
As a Red Wings fan this would be the most Toronto Maple Leafs thing to do.. . I approve!!😂😂😂
Let him walk. Use the money on goalies\defence
Better coaching might seriously improve his game. That should be the Leafs #1 priority. That move should have been made at least 2 seasons ago. Someone that will end the country club atmosphere. A coach that’s won in the NHL. As John Cooper the Tampa coach said he’d take Marner in a heart beat on his team. And then getting a resilient, reliable & durable #1 goaltender. This tandem too injury prone & give up way too many soft goals.
The only reason I don’t think I’d resign him is he’s going to be getting 11+. If they really want to change this core they need to stop overpaying for unproven playoff talent. Now, if he were to take 9m then Tavares off the books after a year. Maybe.
WHY TRADE YOUR 2ND OR 3RD BEST PLAYER, LOOK AT THE OTHER PLAYERS.
Only sign him for regular season games. His quitting on back checking in OT gave the Bruins the series winning goal. 😀

But if Marner turns on the jets to man mark Pasta, he never has enough time and space to make that perfect deke on his backhand. Samsonov also needs to be more aggressive there. You can't allow Pasta to go cross crease in the paint like that.

Why marner getting trashed so hard has potential still and is fine. Maybe in olayoffs don’t put him on pk save him for pp. If anyone needs to go it Morgan Reilly for a goalie lots can flip. Gibson, markstrom. Lankinen saros.
