It's also possible the 405 isn't packed tomorrow.... but I doubt it.

Again the question same as Kings why would SJ or LA want to get even older.???
Unless the Leafs sweeten the deals so much as to be impossible to turn down .. which from all indications they are not willing to do.

Meier and Burns going the other way, right?


Give me a (frank)ing break, they will have to package a high pick or prospect with him in order for someone to take on that terrible contract along with eating some of that salary too


Another great signing by the Great Cuck Dubas?

What is SJ's ultimate goal here? I mean, yeah, Malreau can still be an effective player on a 3rd line or 2nd line plug, but SJ needs to start thinking long-term here. Their core is old as (frank), but they have enough solid young players where they can add more young players and keep their window going.

Take note Johnny Toronto as in 5 years this classy organization will be dumping you off as well. Contracts mean nothing to this team.

This is just more EK bullcrap speculation. Everything has a price and if the Sharks take Marleau back it will be because they extracted a large price out of the Leafs.

Leafs clearly need to dump Marleau's salary, so they should send him to whomever is willing to take him without sending any salary back.

IMO the Leafs should look to packaging Kadri and Marleau with renting 50% of Marleau's salary. They may be able to get a Gardiner replacement while still free up space for the other pieces.

Yeah, who wants a 50 point player on a 1 year contract for free, who also happens to have been the captain of that team and will be retiring there anyways. lol

Only way Leafs pay extra is if no money comes back, which isn't gonna happen.

I really like Marleau and hope they end up keeping him. He's been a good player and a really good presence for the young guys.

Kadri's contract is too good to throw away. A 60 point center making only 4.5 mil.

Leafs are looking to dump salary. And not take much if any back so they can resign guys. San Jose has little salary left. They are not taking on Marleau without sending salary back. This idea makes 0 sense.

Marleau hasn't scored 50 points since 2014-2015. He turns 40 this season and is on the decline. This year he only put up 37 points. To say he's a 50 point player is ....

Also, teams have leverage over the leafs.
1) Marleau wants to go to a West coast team. Limits options to LA, Anaheim, San Jose.
2) Toronto has to clear ALOT of cap space to sign Marner + Kap + Johnsson +.

I'm sure a team will take him if Toronto packages a 2nd maybe 3rd round pick with him.

This just makes other Leaf fans look like deRps.

I mean who doesn't want a 50 goal scorer who is a UFA for free? Jonathan Cheechoo anyone?

If Toronto would take Andrew MacDonald and a 3rd I am sure the Flyers would take Marleau and Kadri to help them clear 5.75 million off the cap.

Yeah, seems like a real sticking point to me.
