[MapleLeafs9]

Imagine offloading both Zaitsev and Marleau the same offseason

Amazing if it happens.

The kings love over the hill vets, Marleau loves California. Looks like a fit to me

 

[Cor]

Woah!

 

[ShaneFalco]

Pleeeeaaassseeeeeee

 

[ShaneFalco]

Who could we take back that we could use?

 

[Trapper]

Hope part of the deal of 1st/Grundy/Durzi for Muzzin included looking at a good price to send Marleau’s contract over.

 

[Nineteen67]

Marleau and Nylander for Doughty

 

[These Are The Days]

Leafs didn't need him anyway, especially not for what they are paying him

 

[Bomber0104]

Fingers crossed.

 

[ErnieLeafs]

Marleau and Nylander for Doughty

No way that would happen, but we can certainly dream.

 

[jaric1862]

They can take Marleau and Brown for free.

 

[Orfieus]

It would be money out, money in but Toronto might be able to get a 3/4 C I'd be ok with it

No way that would happen, but we can certainly dream.

Why would we dream about trading an elite 22 year old winger for an 11 mil declining 30 year old dman coming off a horrible horrible horrible season? Give your head a shake

Holy shit Dubas is really taking it upon himself to clean up Lou's mess this offseason. Right on.

 

[TheShape]

Praise the lord.

Marleau, Zaitsev , Brown could potentially be 12.85m off the cap.

Chances are there is probably some term coming back on this one though, even if it’s half of what Marleau makes, we’re coming out in the green.

 

[Sypher04]

I'd love to see it, but, the Kings finished 2nd last this past season... I can't see why Marleau would waive his NMC to rot there for a year. I guess if we attach a nice asset to him it may be worthwhile to them to buy him out after he gets there. Then he could sign cheap back with the Sharks or something if he's dead set on playing his last year.

 

[Cor]

Los Angeles preferring Sean Durzi instead of Timothy Liljegren and then taking Marleau off our hands would be a hilarious timeline

 

[ViewsFromThe6ix]

Holy **** Dubas is really taking it upon himself to clean up Lou's mess this offseason. Right on.

He’s going to do it, then the 40 year old dad fans will say we needed Marleau and Zaitsev all along, Dubas doesn’t value leadership, and that Nylander should have been traded the first time we lose 2 games next season

 

[TorMapleJays]

Alec Martinez?

 

[SprDaVE]

... Wow.

 

[Cor]

Holy **** Dubas is really taking it upon himself to clean up Lou's mess this offseason. Right on.

If Dubas manages to get rid of Zaitsev and Marleau over the next 5 weeks, without taking back too much money, even his biggest detractors would need to give him credit, right?

You’d be shocked. It’d somehow be spun that Nylander should have gone.

 

[PromisedLand]

somewhere out there babcock just shed a tear

 

[Rare Jewel]

Interesting. They were other team after him.

I'm not sure of the upside for Marleau if he continues to play. Waive his NMC for a team that might make the playoffs?

We'll see.

 

[TorMapleJays]

Matthews and Marner are going to need a new place to live.
