Thread: Resign everyone for 2019
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>palhal</b></div><div>Thanks for agreeing with me that "another guy who doesn't understand why Marleau signed with the Leafs"
He signed with the Leafs...yes partly to get three year deal but he did it to win his first Cup. Playing with the Leaf in 2019/20 gives him another chance, not sitting on this fake LTIR. And you used this phoney argument of him being traded....he has a full NMC.
Haven't you noticed that many players who have tens of millions of dollars trying to come back on minimum deals even PTOs for one last chance to play in the NHL.
Marleau doesn't sit in the stands so fans can make fantasy team with more cap space for the Leafs. He plays because he wants to win a Cup in his final NHL season.</div></div>

Guess we'll see next offseason. Until then all of this is speculation, so I don't see why you think your opinion that he'll play for league minimum in pursuit of a cup is any more valid than my opinion that he never planned on playing that third season and will go quietly into retirement the same way Zetterberg is right now. If that happens, it'll turn out that you're the one who didn't understand why he signed here?
