    The Panther sign Ekblad for 6.1M cap hit for 8 years. WOW damn good deal if he stays healthy.
    What does Marchand do now??

    8×6.1m for Ekblad just laughable

    Is it? The guy just had 20 game suspension for drugs. Think this guy with a history of some injuries isn’t going to hold up. Not like he’s worth 10 million imo.

    The drugs part is a non-issue. Tainted supplements happen. There’s an outside chance they did it on purpose to get under the cap at the deadline but that’d be very difficult to prove.

    The real issue is he hasn’t played a full season in 7 years and only 3 times in his entire career. Long history of concussions. And he only had 3 goals and 33 points last year.

    For his situation in Florida, it’s a fantastic fit. But anywhere else, it would have been a disaster contract.

    I’d bet Marchand is willing to take far less than $7M to run it back again.

    Don’t think it’s that far less than 7. He’s 37 so it’s a risk for anybody to sign him long term. He left Boston because they wouldn’t give him 8+.

    Considering he’s on a juggernaut team, the weather and the state itself is fantastic, I’d say his bottom dollar is 6.5 AAV for 3/4 years.

    Ekblad for 8 years at $6m? Fack.
    Leafs have morgan for what 5 more at $7.5m
    Shitty.

    Yeah, but Morgan does funny commercials.

    Panthers would still have to trade somebody like Rodrigues to have enough space for Marchand who probably wants at least 7.

    I’d bet Marchand is willing to take far less than $7M to run it back again.

    I didnt mean leafs missed out.
    never thought he was on the Leafs radar.

    but id have swapped him out for Rielly

    Rielly is unmoveable, he’ll play out the rest of his contract in the Blue and White. But, if Tre somehow moved him and replaced him with Provorov, he’d be an instant legend.

    He’s not “unmoveable”, he needs to have a good year. Almost any contract can be moved.
    Sign Provorov now, move morgan to the 3rd line and let him excel…trade him next off season

    Hope they dont offer anymore than $6m per for Marchand….simply not worth it. IMO

    No chance he signs that, when he can take less to stay in Florida and clear more.

    Good, then stay in Florida.
