i dis-agree he is a good pro and has over the past improved as his time with his team has increased , i understand you have a issue with swedes , and thats your right but i would like to see how this coming year plays out before i write the eulogy on LE's time in Vancouver

I just pictured the Canuck future, future Pres. Sedin, future GM Sedin, they could share an office and even push their desks together.

Loui erikson had less points then marleau had goals last year and will have 3 years left when Marleaus done this deal.. Im not a huge fan of the signing but theyre not really comparable contracts. I could defiantly see Marleau only having like 20 goals 15 assists this year tho

Yeah but Marleau played for a good team last year wait till he joins you sad sacks

exactly if you put LE on a top tier team you'd see way better numbers. His year was crap we all know it , but he'll have a big bounce back with the new additions like Gagner who will get him the puck in scoring positions .

He will be 40 at the end of it

Marleau is in incredible shape. He's really good as a mentor and teaching. I think he will be good for their young guys.

Im sure Marner passing him the puck wont hurt his game. Still not sure about it, 2 years woulda been fine but 3 kinda sucks.

I don't like most Swedish forwards. I like Karlson and Hedman and Stralman and Ekholm. I liked OhLund and Salming and the younger Edler.

his salary sucks. But come year 3 perhaps he has wink wink nudge nudge to retire. I believe his actual pay is just over 1 million. He can be traded after year 2 to a bottom team looking to reach the floor and add an asset. I get it, we like to poke fun at the Leafs, as they do to us. But this isn't that bad a signing. He has some good players to play with too. A Babcock favourite.

His salary really sucks but they can fit it in and who knows what will happen.. Im not really sure what to think, hard not to like their top 9 right now though, Babcock seems to have a hard on for Marleau.
