Confirmed with Link: Leafs re-sign Marincin on a 1 year deal

[ACC1224]

Boooooooooooooooo

 

[Canada4Gold]

Well, once they sign Dermott this completely fills up the left side. What are we trading Sandin for?

 

[Kamiccolo]

When they sign Pietrangelo they're going to need 700k depth for the 7D. This is what league minimum buys you, a league minimum skill level player.

As long as they make sure they can squeeze in McDavid when he comes home. Hopefully he will do like Tavares and take a discount

 

[Nithoniniel]

Just had to come by to see if anyone would overreact. This is a signing with no downside.

- He's signed to be a #7/#8 for us.
- He is better than most in that bracket.
- He is absolutely fine playing that role.
- It's a league-minimum contract so even if he isn't ever needed, it doesn't hurt us in any way.

lmao, this guy is a career leaf, his number will hang from the rafters.

And when he scores the game 7 triple ot Stanley cup winning goal, it will be deserved.

[Sniper99]

What does Dufas see in him? Hes terrible.

 

[stickty111]

For depth it's fine

 

[Carltons Cup]

Dubas must've been drunk at happy hour...

 

[Joel Ward]

How anyone can wish Marv gone is beyond me. He takes up space and can skate reasonably well. I genuinely see incremental improvements each year in terms of positioning and assertiveness. It's literally league minimum.

Real question: who lasts longer as a Leaf - Rielly or Marincin?

 

[McClelland]

He needs to go true waivers aint he? But thats the beauty, no one will claim him, can go up and down as they want!

Marincin lol he's cheaper

 

[SeaOfBlue]

Solid signing. Fills a hole with one of the better depth guys out there for 700k.

His underlying numbers are somehow always pretty impressive.

 

[Buds17]

Same contract again. No big deal.

 

[smitty10]

Hopefully he'll see lots of time with the Marlies.

 

[Randy Randerson]

wondering if there's anything to read into here, maybe Muzzin isn't in the plans? Rielly-Dermott-Sandin/Marincin?

might also mean nothing

 

[Lainehasaweirdface]

Lol f*** off

 

[stickty111]

Look guys, and people will disagree with me on this. Marincin is a fine #7 depth D man, but this better not mean they feel he will be a regular for them. If it does, I am going to snap.

 

[ACC1224]

Would have preferred they moved on and see if they could find someone to overachieve at that price.

 

[6ix]

NO











NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[FlareKnight]

I'm not really bothered by it. More like "doesn't Dubas have more pressing priorities than extending Marincin?" I'm sure it didn't take up too much time but...do we really need to focus on Marincin right now?

Oh well. It's done and the era of Marincin continues. He will be a career Leaf, I have no doubt about it.

 

[WTFMAN99]

The only thing I can think of is meeting requirements for players to expose in the Seattle draft next year?

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

I just don't understand why Dubas doesn't factor in how fans feel about a player when he makes decisions like this

 

[stickty111]

What does Dufas see in him? Hes terrible.

For someone who complains about people saying "egocock", you seem to say this dumb nickname a lot for Dubas. The double standard is real.

Also Marincin is not terrible.
