Time for new thread as training camp will soon be open
Hopefully Marner will be at camp and avoid the Nylander experience
I still wish they would have let him stay in Europe and Dubas guaranteeing him that he would not be traded was a huge mistake
I also do not think Backcock or Dubas will ever gel together and I often find myself pissed off at how stubborn Babs can be
In any case I still think the Leafs are weak on D and this is the year they have to get by round 1

will Dubas cave in again and give Marner what he wants ? Who did he cave in to already? The elite 21yr old C who has scored at an off the charts amount on his ELC? Or the 22yr old winger signed to an amazing team friendly deal less then a year after signing a 6 year deal? Marner will get $10 million or so on a 6 year deal on October 2nd is my guess. Pays him elite money for his elite production. Creates separation money wise from Matthews who everyone seems to agree is the more important player due to playing a more important position and gets Marner away from Matthews and right with Tavares term wise. I guess all these other GM's are waiting for Dubas to 'cave'? Or does anyone else not see the difference between the Marner's/Rantanen's and the Laine's, Connor's, Boeser's who have also not signed?

I guess I am still bitter that he signed Nylander and I would be happy if Marner signed for 10 million

I guess I am still bitter that he signed Nylander and I would be happy if Marner signed for 10 million What is there to be bitter over? He signed a fair market contract that already starts to look like a bargain. The fact you're saying you're bitter he signed at all makes me question how you could possibly be so bitter over 1 player signing a contract. It's very easy to forget how young these players are and that they still have room to grow and develop. Nylander hasn't fulfilled all of his potential. That contract could look like an absolute steal in 3-4 months time. Worst case scenario it's currently a 5 year/25 mil deal with a 7mil cap hit for someone else.

What are you bumping this for? Thread was clearly dying out, 9 days since a post was made. Also nothing to talk about. Training camp is just getting under way and there's nothing to see or talk about outside of ranting about Marner's situation. Threads get bumped when there's something to discuss through posting about that item. Not because there's been nothing to discuss. Especially NHL team threads like this. When there's something to talk about it won't need a bump to bring out the opinions. As this clearly hasn't.
