The issues are going to be Marner's contract (he will ask for $11.5 at least) and the fact they will have top go and find goalies and Dmen if they want to compete because their homegrown ones suck/don't even exist. They've got Morgan Reilly signed long term and no goalies. They will need relatively inexpensive guys on D and in goal and they have no trade capital to get them (and UFAs will be overpriced).
