*notices how long it took him to land*
- Canada Cup


You mean from that super lofty perch where he had one decent year in Florida where he scored 18 goals and had 47 points? He was rewarded with a 4-year, $4.5m contract with a full NMC - and he's produced 9 goals, 23 points and is -4 at 5v5 despite playing twice as many power play minutes as he did last year?

The only reason it didn't take him that long to land is that he wasn't very high to begin with. But he was definitely WAY better than Malgin or Hunt.

what about if you see that he makes 4.5mil until 2026?

I know he makes that much. Id still take him over Dryden Hunt. If we could back and cancel out that initial trade I would. Unfortunately, the hard cap sucks ass, and all we talk about is salaries (hockey talk)

He clearly isnt worth that contract though.

No, just cause he’s taller than Malgin.

Capfriendly says it has a 10 team no trade list. On the site if you hover over the clause it'll give you the details for that specific player.

As for Marchment, yes he's peaked above Malgin and Hunt but I can laugh a little at the fact he's a minus player on a team full of plus players.

Also, not for nothing, Verhaghe (however his name is spelt) was traded in a package by Lou in a 5 for 1 deal for Grabner was it? Who's gone on to have a fairly successful career.

Yep, that one has stung for quite a while now. He is a good player the Leafs could use.

He's a Waterdown kid - and the people around here were very excited when he was drafted by the Leafs. Less so when they dumped him to the Islanders.

. . . and thanks. That NMC is better for Dallas! He is definitely playing worse (half as many hits, twice as many giveaways, and obviously half as many goals & points), but he has the ability to be more.

Mason Marchment strawman day.

Marchment is overpaid because Malgin sucks.

It's ok to admit that Dubas made a bad trade. Konecny for a 3rd.

He made a terrible trade. Wasn't the first and won't be the last. I just thought it was amusing that we haven't heard those boo birds since his hot start came to an end.

Agreed so can we move on from the guy who was never drafted and signed in 2016? 7 years is a long time to worry about lol

Wait a second. Which guy are we moving on from? Verhaeghe was drafted in the 3rd round in 2013 and signed in 2014 and Marchment signed in 2018.

You, sir, have described Trevor Moore or Nikita Zaitsev.

We've all moved on from them.

Not that they wouldn't go out and get him because Boston loves the big fish, but do they really need him with
