Thread: tell me how im wrong with your ridiculous commentary
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HShockey</b></div><div>I think Hanifin gets a tad bit more (CGY offered him 7.5 which he nearly accepted according to reports). Also Markstrom deal might be a slight overpay (isn't Marino a legit T4 D-man)?</div></div>

Well I broke it down in my description at the top, but the logic is that the entire trade is broken up into two. Marino is sent to CGY to upgrade to an extended Hanifin. Marino himself, as with numerous players, are an absolute shell of themselves. Players like him and Siegthaler have been horrible in comparison to last year. Plus, having Dougie, the emergence of Nemec, and Miller being an excellent 3rd pairing guy (who we can probably resign for cheap), I think Marino is expendable.

Why? Dougie will be back, Nemec has exploded onto the scene and will only improve, and Miller has been better. Marino has taken a legitimate step backward this year.

Out of the 8 defensemen on this roster, this is where Marino ranks:

Corsi = 46% (6th)
Fenwick = 44% (7th)
On-ice Goals % = 36.1 (8th)
On-ice Expected Goals Against/60 min = 3.63 (8th)
On-ice High Danger Shot Attempts Against/60 min = 3.87 (6th)

I do like Marino...actually, I loved him last year. I get that some of these numbers will be skewed due to bad goaltending, but he has been without a doubt a massive defensive liability which is the exact opposite of what we need from him. Give Nemec his 2nd pairing role and move him to help fulfill a different need (such as the Swayman extension).
