[Anthrax442]

Let's be honest here. What is he doing on this team besides creepy Instagram pics?

Trade Marleau to the Sharks.

 

[TheProspector]

Collecting $6.5m per year. I'd pay draft picks to get him off the cap for next season.

Trade Marleau to the Sharks.

easier to feed him to the Sharks

 

[TheShape]

I get that he’s big in the room and the young guys love him but he needs to retire. Looks finished for good this time.

Sweet Lou's biggest mistake as Leafs GM.

Can he be orpiked?

I can see Nylander, Zaitsev, Brown traded and Gardiner and hainsey not resigned.

Hyman - Tavares - Marner
Mango - Matthews - Kapenen
Moore - Kadri - xx
xx - Lindholm/goat - xx

Reilly - xx
Dermott - xx
xx - Oz

he's being a useless waste of cap and a unnecessarily taking a roster spot. he's the worst left winger on this team. moore should be ahead of him but then again apparently babcock knows best

 

[GlitchMarner]

I tend to not notice him much of the time, which really isn't a good thing considering his salary. He makes good plays on occasion but not as often as I'd like.

 

[skacore]

He's been coasting for the past 30 games or so that's for sure, but if he comes alive in the playoffs again and can provide that depth scoring, it's all worth while.

 

[gamer1035]

Send him to Robidas island.

Wtf even happened, I swear he was useful last year. 1 year shouldn't make this much if a difference, I know he's old as f***.

 

[Leaf Lander]

to be truthful he should be on marners wing

 

[Kazparov]

Can he be orpiked?

The question really is if the NHL will close that loophole. They looked carefully at the Orpik trade but said it was legit. I'm not convinced they will let it become common practice.

 

[BAM]

Trade a 2nd along with Marleau to the Sharks to get him off the books. His contract is literally going to decide whether or not we can keep all our core members and he's not even playing like an NHL player at this point.

 

[ACC1224]

Fresh

 

[Slyfox]

He's a fourth liner who doesn't provide anything. He doesn't even seem like a vocal leader as well. If we can move him that would solve our cap problems for next year

he has a nmc which interferes in a potential deal. it's unlikely he'd waive it anyways. it's also unlikely the sharks would want him back.

 

[TMLS]

Gud pro helping our younger players develop. LOL. Any abosulte plug that is gettting top 6 mins bc of Egocock. Most here will defend him saying he is good role model for the younger players. SMH.

 

[HamiltonNHL]

Package him with Nylander to a cap floor team ?

 

[Anthrax442]

He has lost a step even from what he was last year, I shudder to think what kind of stiff he is going to be next year and all that cap space wasted. he better develop a debilitating disease and soon

 

[lovemyleafs]

He gets worse every game.
somehow he's even more useless than brown now

 

[Stephen]

You can buy that veteran presence paying someone like Daniel Winnik... at this point Marleau is pretty much toast.

 

[HomerJLeafs]

Pensioner.
Veteran presence? My ×××!!! Hes been brutal and he is not helping with the menthal things either.

 

[Anthrax442]

I hope Dubas is booking him a one way ticket to Robidas island

 

[ANDI P IS CUTE]

thought he was supposed to be a good influence on matthews nylander etc.. 2 guys who are doing jack right now.
