The Hawks were able to trade him anywhere which was one difference and Panarin cost far less in terms of money compared with Marner. Blue Jackets had the opportunity to sign Panarin longterm but knew they had him for a minimum of two years.
But some value similar to that would be my guess at what Marner is worth.

Oooff.
Panarin had two seasons under his belt topping out at 77 points. Marner has six seasons in a row at over 90 ppg production.
I know it’s fashionable to slag the Leafs, and right now Marner, but as far as production goes, Marner is a top 3-5 RW in the game. He’s worth quite a bit, I’d say.
