fits with my call of
Staal at half for Marleau at full pop.
Staal becomes very cheap to buy this yr, for some reason
we have a logjam at LD and I want to give him a good home
Marleau, had envisioned as 2RW on a line w/Kreider and Nieves, but if his heart is set on SJ, we can promise to flip him to sharks for a conditional 7th and settle for cap space.
If SJ wants us to eat half for his expiring contract, we can do that, and the cost with these #s would be swapping a future 2nd for a future 3rd.
Deal?
So now Kipper is a legit source?
Ok.
I'm good with that....anyone want to buy him out?Hahahahahahaha lmao this is great. Hey, if someone wants to buy him out, I’ll happily take Marleau at league minimum to play on our fourth line.
What does a Marleau buy out look like?
Well he's on a 35+ contract so him retiring is cool too.Either play out your contract or retire. What a baby
Disagree.
Marleau already knows a deal is done, otherwise his house wouldn't already be on the market.
Deal will happen after his signing bonus is paid.
Isnt that leavin a nice chunk of money on the table... why help toronto? They havnt exactly done much for him... kinda a messIf Marleau really wants to be back in San Jose, I wonder if he’d be willing to accept a mutual contract termination.
What do you think it would cost Toronto to get a team to buy him out? A 2nd or Bracco? Ottawa should do it after July 1. Or before July 1, for all I care. I'd throw in pick 44 if Bracco was involved, he's worth a high 2nd and is developed, adding Marleau probably lowers his value to around 44.
Honestly, I'd take a 2nd round pick. Anything. f*** benning.The Leafs won't be adding Kapanen to ship out Marleau....
What do we need in our bottom 6? Speed, size, pk ability. Two years ago, Patty had all three of those things in spades. We don’t need 20 goals out of him, but if he can be adequate on a third line (maybe w/Jumbo and Labanc/Sorensen), while playing on the PK. That’d be a huge win.
Works both ways....Kipper is legit now...but if it's positive news about the Leafs, he's a doofus.He is legit as can be when he is saying what a fan base wants to hear.
He's a weasel when he's dropping bombs like this.
It makes perfect sense. It was hugely surprising when there were rumors that Marleau would waive to go out West. This trade is complicated to make because a team buying out Marleau is on the hook for his bonuses. There's no way for the Leafs to pay the bonuses if another team is going to buy him out. Leafs are basically asking teams to take almost 4 million in dead cash. That requires a premium asset.
Most of these cap dumps that get traded are superficial cap hits with very little cash owed.
Is it correct that the buyout will cost the acquiring team a $6.2 million hit on the cap?
That’s a big ask
I would easily ship a 2nd.Honestly, I'd take a 2nd round pick. Anything. **** benning.
