One thing I keep thinking, despite rumours that Marner may not want to play for any other canadian team than Toronto, is that Kadri was much the same (actually didnt want to go anywhere but Toronto), but now after settling here and seeing how much less of a spotlight you are in in CGY vs Toronto, he apparently has no interest in going anywhere but here now.
Marner and Kadri played together in London, and again in Toronto, and even succeeded playing on the same line at times. They are both still quite close friends. It woulnd't shock me at all if Kadri gets in Marner's ear about joining a young competitive team here in Calgary.
Money will still talk, and the Flames will have to pay up, no discounts. But i could see it.
