Marchand for 6 years is hilarious.
Won’t matter. They stay the best in the Division and in the East, probably win at least 1 more Cup in the next 3 years.
Leafs getting worse, Tampa Bay isn’t a problem for them, nobody else in the division is even close.
Leafs will get bounced in the 1st and 2nd round until Matthews leaves next as a UFA.
The only issue for the Panthers is if Bob plays his age at 37+. But once they clear his 10 AAV, they’ll easily be able to afford another goalie.
The leafs have been bounced for 9 years straight in the 1st or 2nd round. So no difference.
Only now we dont have to watch marner float for the final 3 games of a playoff round.
