Shanahan basically said everything except explicitly stating they were going to explore options re: the core four this summer.

If we assume Matthews is untouchable and Tavares is untouchable (for very different reasons), the obvious choice would be to trade Marner over Nylander, right?

Even then, if you get Marner to waive his NTC, and you find a trade partner he will agree to sign an extension with (an obvious prerequisite for any trade, no team will give up anything unless the deal includes an extension)...what sort of return would make Toronto fans happy?
