I also can’t see Chicago trading good futures for the privilege of signing a 27 year old to a massive contract when they aren’t even done their rebuild.

Oh I agree I don’t see Chicago paying that price, as they seem to be doing the rebuild slowly, and not make the same mistakes as teams like the Oilers have done.
Yet the Oilers are considered a contender notwithstanding how poorly they have managed things.
Who even knows if Marner will waive anywhere. He might just want to stay in Toronto and test UFA.
