LOL...what? I think you need to watch Point a whole lot more if that is an actual belief.
Marner is a terrific player and can play on my team anytime, but Brayden Point is as good offensively, better defensively, and plays C....he is a much more valuable piece than Marner, because he is more complete player.
I will take a 90 pt C over a 90 pt winger every day of the week.
Back to the topic sort of...i dont think there will be any significant offer sheets this summer.
Its just to cost prohibitive for the top end guys. Just to get someone to agree to one, the money has to be huge, they have to either want to leave where they are or know their current franchise cant pay them anywhere close to the offer and think they will be traded, plus you give up a boat load of draft picks. Just far to expensive and risky IMO.
I know several of the talking heads aren't so sure, but history kind of indicates what we should expect.
