Sad story this Marleau character. When he signed there was all this talk about what a gud pro he is, wants to play for a winner so bad he'll even uproot his family and move across the continent to chase his dream of winning the cup.
It's clear now that as some of us suspected, money was his only motivation for signing here. Now that he's gotten the dough and he has all the leverage one could dream of we find out what he really wants. Is it to play for a top contender? Why no, of course not. We were supposedly that contender but it's not us and apparently no other contender is satisfactory either. Nope, the man has his money and now that he's cashed in, he wants to go home.
Character guy, gud pro my ass. And LOL at us Leaf fans who thought that we'd benefit because he was teaching our young guys like Marner everything he knows. Well I guess he did teach him alright, too bad that what he taught him was that pro hockey is all about the money, winning is somewhere way down the list.
