Why would another team trade for Marner though knowing he is a UFA and doesn’t want to resign / only wants to play for 1 team/limited teams
Getting some futures for Marner wouldn’t help Toronto . Their best chance was last year , going on a deep run , and hoping Marner decides to stay
I guess maybe you could have dealt him to Vegas for something , but they do t have a lot of young NHL ready players to deal. Maybe you could have got the Rantonen deal out of Dallas assuming he would sign there (and I think Dallas would prefer Rantonen)
I think it’s easier said than done to trade a guy like Marner when you are trying to win a cup and actually get something back that helps you last season and moving forward
