0:41 4 Mitch Marner Trade Proposals
17:28 Comment of the day
Recent have come out saying that the Toronto Maple Leafs are potentially going to look at trading star forward Mitch Marner. Where will the Leafs trade him and what will they get in return? KC breaks down these reports, rumors, and more on this episode of Hat Trick HQ.

The Leafs need to trade Marer to Florida for a 1st or 2nd with Spencer Knight… he is the starter the Leafs need
I am not sure Marner would agree to go to any of these locations.
He's not going anywhere… he's too marketable to Toronto ''Leaf fans'' for them to give up. However in a PERFECT world, I'd be ok with him going off to Calgary in exchange for Weegar & Vladar (and we benefit the extra 3-mil in cap space)… Will Calgary go for that after stripping their D-core this season? Probably not.
id do the Larsson and Wright trade today if it was possible. Big D man and almost $7M in freed up cap space. Hell no to the Flames trade. Markstrom isn't reliable anymore. His numbers last year were not "great" and Minten is too good.
Leafs would be stupid to let him go . He's a 100-point player and Matthews "guy" .. if he goes, Matthews will be next. NOT ONE Leaf played a 7 game solid series. The goalies , the defense, or any forwards were solid , you can't get rid of them all. It isn't a Mitch problem, it's a motivation problem. A special teams coach has to also be brought in to get the full talent from these guys
I like the Kent Johnson + 4th overall pick best. First and foremost, try to flip that pick for a top two-way D. If unavailable, no problem: lots of intriguing D available near the 4-spot in that draft.
All 4 of these trades are not good, the best is Columbus BJ's, but hilly, Seattle, Calgary and are non starters in my opinion without draft picks. We need youth and can sign two top 4 defence men in free agency. Young talented players and draft picks are what we need for Marner.
He needs to go…no defensive effort at key moments in the playoffs and afraid of contact etc
Marner .877 Nylander .796 playoffs points per game , Marner plus 10 Nylander plus 1 in their careers in the playoffs
I say "No" to the Calgary trade. They have a big headache already in Huberdeau; they do not need two. The 3-team trade seems interesting. The last trade is awful for the Blue Jackets (see the Calgary trade and substitute name mentioned for Johnny Hockey).
The Seattle trade is the best one but the Kraken would probably have to sweeten the pot with a 2nd or 3rd rd pick to make it happen.

Flames deal would be better without giving up Minten, i think that takes it from a fair trade to a one sided win for Flames.
Mitch is worth not that much.. Send Him to LA along with Reilly for Fiala and Doughty
Marner is a issue rightfully so but think about JT and rielly also
Marner's trade value is at its lowest. Poor playoff followed by getting dragged through the mud by Leaf nation. No one wants to help the Leafs and no GM is giving up a great piece to get this guy. Cap space, no trade clause, bad rep and desperation will all add up to Toronto losing the deal.
Get something rather let marner walk for nothing, then sign johnny t for 2 yrs for 5 mil ×2
I don't think Mitch is going anywhere next season tbh.
You’re mixing Andersen with Weegar. Anderson had 8 pp A.
Riley can't play defense doesn't take the body only use stick check like tj brodie that's why he didn't play ,need guys like macabe takes the body and fights if needed true warrior.
Leafs say no toll of those offers.
I would move Mathews before Marner. Marner played in the OHL, long season and similar playoff format, won Memorial Cup. Mathews played short NCAA season and has been a playoff no show, year after year. This year 69 regular season goals and 1 PO. The Leafs biggest problem is coaching, at times this year they played like they were trying to get Keefe fired. Treliving was brought in a year ago, not his coach, not his team, yet. He needs time to put his pieces in place. Time is the last thing Toronto fans and Media want to invest. Personally I'd like to see Torts behind the bench, at least the pressers would be good, right Brooksy.
That Seattle deal ain't gonna happen. Marner has baggage dude. Don't over-value him.
Matthew highest player paid is only top ten player
I believe with his NTC, most trade may be impossible. But NYI has a familiar face in Lou Lamoriello as a Toronto connection. NYI has a high ranked defensive and may need more room Dodson. So, my trade would be
NYI: F. MARNER
D. LIJEGREN
TOR: D. POLUCK
F. NELSON
1st & 4th
Poluck is locked up for a few years. Give a decent 1-2 punch on defense,and Nelson at $6m/1yr may sign on a team friendly. But a big body that can give all positions in all situations and good leader that can replacement for Bertuzzi which maybe impossible to keep.
That’s a pass for Cgy, don’t need another Gaydreau and 3 bottom players for 2 studs
I don't want to have the Shane Wright experiment here
Of the four, the Columbus option is the best for the Leafs… the Philadelphia option isn't bad either… the other two proposals would be a big HELL NO – lol.
Take Minten out of that Calgary trade and I'd be opened to it
He is not going anywhere. I don't ever watch Core Four movement videos: I won't waste my time. But I still love this site!
serevali is a plug, i don't put much value in anything he says
Matthews/Tavares/Marner is the highest paid trio in the league. With Nylander’s extension, he just replaces Tavares. None of these guys are point/game in the playoffs. The Leafs are spending more than anybody on their stars, while getting back very little in playoff production. This model has been a complete failure. The core doesn’t work, and it will not work. It’s time to move on from one of them – Tavares as well.
Re-signing Marner would be the dumbest decision this franchise could make. He’s not worth 12M. He’s not a top-10 player. He’s not a playoff performer. The other guys aren’t great playoff performers either, but they’re already extended (Matthews, Nylander). Enough is enough. This isn’t going to work.
4 young for 2 old 2 young some whst.is not a good deal
Much better trade.
The krakens other d isn’t much better and you get and has grit
wow just because marner doesn't respect the toronto media, the media uses him as a scape goat for the failed playoff series lol! marner did not lose this series. the weak goaltending, samsonov letting soft goals cost them the series. the boston forwards and toronto's forwards were evenly matched.
I don’t like any of these trade proposals.
I’d literally take just a 3rd rounder for Marner in the off season. That’s 11mil off the cap for free agency and to sign Bert and Domi.
TAKE Minten OFF the list he will not be traded
ANOTHER Player will NOT be traded is Nylander so DO NOT EVEN mention his name PERIOD
I like the Seattle trade and maybe add a draft pick from Seattle
Shane wright lol. 😂
Shane wright is bust until he proves himself in the nhl past at least 60 gnaes
I don’t like theses except Adam Larson but Shane wright is kinda bust until proves himself
