Marleau is what he is, have no idea why people bash the guy, he's basically producing at the same pace as last year and people are acting like he's overpaid by 3-4 million, the guy at most is overpaid by a million which is nothing for us, literally nothing.
Kadri has disappeared and regressed, Nylander is totally invisible apart from his 'great chances" that he finishes none of and Zaitsev has been mediocre again. Those are the guys who should be getting bashed, not a near 40 year old putting up a 40 point pace and getting paid basically what market value is.
Things that would make a real difference:
Marner, Matthews and Tavares getting PROPER TOI not 36th, 87th and 51st respectively
Kadri, Nylander and Zaitsev doing something
Babcock not ****ing up our PP and being incapable of making changes
Babcock not playing trash like Brown and Hyman on our first two lines when we have guys like Kap, Johnsson, Moore and Marchement
Marleau is the LEAST of this team's concerns.
