The Leafs are nowhere close to being able to pay Marner what he is worth. Even if they don't sign a back up goalie, or a 6th and 7th d man, the 6.9 M they have in cap space is still 2M shy of what Marner would get paid in the open market. If I were him I would ask for a trade now to get it over with.
