Thread: With the Marleau NMC

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jamiepo</b></div><div>Marleau has already stated that he is coming back next year.</div></div>

I know he stated it. But he wouldn't say anything different with the microphones in his face after game 7. He didn't want to cause any drama by saying, "I'm not sure". He would be hounded all summer.
I agree with you...he likely doesn't retire, but Marleau is smart enough to say "he's coming back", regardless of his true feelings at the time.

Thread: With the Marleau NMC

I think this is realistic. Perhaps Toronto looks to trade for a LTIR contract to acquire some breathing room to upgrade the defense instead of getting Pionk because Babcock isn't going to play a 23 year old d-man in the playoffs for meaningful minutes (esp in a game 7 setting in the 3rd) and that was Toronto's weakness all year.

Thread: With the Marleau NMC

My thoughts on Marleau. You're right, he wants one last shot at the Cup. Gotta believe he knows the Leaf won't as good next year due to cap restraints, especially with his contract. Maybe you thinks all the work and travel for 1.5m isn't worth it. So a retired Marleau is possible.
But pro athletes are a different breed. In effect they have been pros since the age of 14. Most don't want it to end. Even former NHLers often play for little money in the AHL or Europe or minimal NHL contracts. Each players motivation is different.
My opinion, Marleau is done as difference maker as a NHLer. He's a third liner at best by more a fourth or five liner by the time October comes around. Only Marleau knows if wants to continue his pro career.
