Forget marchand. What a waste of money he would be on the leafs.
Hes effective as a 3rd liner on a mi e with other good third liners. On the leafs, he’d play second line against tougher comp and wouldnt be as effective.
Use the $8-9m on something else.Agreed. Marchand can go cash in somewhere else.
He took a discount to stay with the bruins and now that he has this cup, why should he take another discount somewhere else? I’m sure someone will pay him $8 million but not the leafs (I hope). I do think if he wants to stay in Florida he takes a discount though.[/quote]
I don’t mind a bit of an overpay but not for 4 years

I wouldn’t do 4 years at that number either. I assume that’s coming from his camp. I like the idea of signing him over someone like Boeser but I’m thinking his value should be something more like $9M for two years then you tack on a couple low # yrs to lower the AAV. Maybe that get’s you down to 3x7M or 4x6M. If he doesn’t take it …move on.
Frankly I don’t hate the top 6 starting off like ..
Domi-Matthews-Nylander
Knies-JT-McMannSpend some money on building up the bottom 6 on top of Laughton and Roy. Maybe shake up the D with a puck mover.
Nice contract with Knies
Yup, the summer of Brad continues. Can’t wait for tomorrow.
Nice contract with Knies
Yes, Knies AAV is $7.75 X 6 years. Sounds reasonable at this point.
I concur.
Do we hear that Marner right have been trade to Vegas??????
Treliving has been negotiating with them
Ok, I’m coming around on signing Marchand. Leafs need to bump Kampf and Jarnkrok off the ship after bonus day and if they do they’ll have about 19M to spend on a top 6 FWD and 4 bottom 6 replacements. Nab Roy as one of the pieces and you’ve still got 16M to spend. Sign Marchand to bigger money, shorter term (b/c they really don’t need to back end it and lower the AAV). Spend some money on good 1 yr deals on the 4th line.
If the dust settles this week and the lineup looks like …
Marchand-Matthews-Nylander
Knies-Tavares-McMann
Domi-Laughton-Roy
3 Heavy forechecking types…….I’m good. Maybe drop Laughton down a line and spend on another good 3rd liner.
Hauge to Preds… Guess there is no trade for Marners rights
Hague was just a possibility, Roy was always the guy that it was probably going to be. With the return from Nashville, Vegas is loaded at center, Roy is gonna have to be moved to make room for Marner. That is assuming they’re actually pursuing him, but it certainly seems that way.
Doing a sign and trade also kinda gets Vegas off the hook for tampering allegations.
Hauge sucks and that deal he signed is shyte. 3rd pair. Benoit is similar but better
Roy would be a decent add. Hope that plays out
Hague trade brings in Sissons (another bottom 6C). Roy to Toronto seems more likely.
hope it happens with Marner involved. But I could see it happening as a trade also on its own.
Preds are going to suck for a while, why are they paying 3rd pair that much?
Hague trade brings in Sissons (another bottom 6C). Roy to Toronto seems more likely.
Pietrangelo will need to be on the LTIR as Vegas only has 757K on their cap and + 10% over during the summer.
Roy’s cap hit is 3M, Pietrangelo cap hit is 8.8M — will that be enough to sign Marner?
