Yeah those brutes on the Pens sure helped protect their way to the cup... - lumlums
L.A. won two using players like Martin. I don't love the deal, but it doesn't erase the good Shanty and Co. have done. |

Great signing. See, now that's who we should have signed. |

So he's there to fight?
Useful stuff right there. - Scabeh
He's there to forechecking and cause turnovers and doesn't take poop
Nothing wrong, some in here that don't like it = it's a good signing
I know some think the NHL is the new figure skating club, but it hasn't got that far yet.

Martin impact goes well beyond the ice, character person in room and community . #TMLtalk - MCharisma91
So hire him to be a (frank)ing ambassador for the team, not to go out there on the ice... |

Martin as a punching bag that runs around and hits a lot (hit counts highly subjective) that played 4th line.
If they signed him "to protect Matthews and the young guys" then they are playing him with them?

I completely disagree.
His BEST season was last year where he had a whooping 19 points.
If he's worth 2.5m... who isnt? - Scabeh

Everyone here hates on the Matt Martin signing... but everyone on the TSN panel have nothing but great things to say... gotta love the saltiness of the so called experts on here.
No more pushing around our guys. How many times have other teams cheap shot our guys, especially Dion ..and nobody did anything. 2.5M isn't bad...i've seen other teams do a lot worse today. - MCharisma91
I don't mind it at all. Got to have some character on the team. Can't have just a bunch of young fluffs coasting around on the ice every day. Maybe he can teach Kadri how to hit and stay on his skates at the same time. Lol

No. Martin at least has a (frank) or two to give. Vanek has zero of said (frank)s. I don't want players like him around the kids. |

Matt Martin gives the team some grit and throws the body. Lead the league In hits last year....with the smaller forwards the leafs needed someone who will get down right dirty....with Leo and Martin the leafs have a little of that.
Would love to see a deal to bring langeskog to the leafs too....even if it cost us JVR plus plus to land him..
Between manrner, nylander and Matthews....not a lot of grit....we needed a guy like Martin..and for what we paid.....it's a great deal for the Leafs. |

No one is saying don't sign tough players, saying pointless to sign guys that do nothing but be tough.... Especially for that rate. |

I think it's cute so many are angry over such a minor move. Omg 2.5 million. Omg 3rd 4th liner!? We could have signed 4 elite players for 2.5 million!? And how are we going to win the cup next year without that 2.5? We were so close and they blew it! |

I'm not saying King and Greene won those Cups on their own.
But the Kings insulated their skilled players with players like Martin, so it can lead to success.
Though I would rather the deal be for less term. |

Meh guy just turned 27... He will be 30-31 when it expires. Leafs needed some sand paper imo and Martin fits the bill. - orienbrady22
Main reason I don't mind it too much is that there's nobody that plays his game on the Marlies or in the pipeline really. |

Well at least we are arguing over a 2.5 mil player and not an 8 mil, 7 million or 5.75 mil player.
Progress is being made. |
