No way Marleau waives his NTC...
He is a fixture at the AA games when he is not out of town with the Leafs.
His son plays for a local Toronto team (he is not very good at all)...
He is on verge of retirement and is in cruise mode right now for the next 1.5yrs with Toronto. He is not going anywhere.

- Cooshie

Or we could go with the Wedgie theory:

July 2nd he and MLSEL agree to mutual termination of contract.

He leaves only (!) $1.25 million on the table.

No cap hit to the Leafs for the 2019-20 season.

League (and by "league", I mean Canucks fans) can't complain, because precedent has been set with Plekanec.

P.S. Out of respect for Marleau's privacy, please erase the kid's team name.

But what if he doesn't want to go to work for 1.25 milly over those 8 months when he's collected 17.5 over the previous 2 years?

I have no idea but maybe just maybe he planned this with the Leafs. Also if he retires via some method that pisses off all Vancouverites won't he get to watch more of his kid play hockey?

I get this guy is a joke and he has no sources, but it’s pretty much on par with what people think. 6.85 seems like a number leafs would go too. The only thing missing is a bridge offer.

He's a joke, he has no sources, and he's just repeating what Dreger, Kypreos and Friedman said over the weekend.

Oh, and he's a joke.

And he has no sources.

I know the haters are gunna hate but that's still a sweetheart deal for the Leafs b/c it's 8 years. 6 years might work ...but 8 is some serious Black Friday specials from WN.

Anybody going shopping south of the border ...where do I put in my bourbon order?

Ya its kinda a dream for people to think a guy who spent most of his career with one, then signs a 3 year deal with only his 2nd team is gonna agree to relocate his family to a 3rd team via agreeing to a trade to a crapoy team.

I’ve sort of already accepted the deal haha

I just feel Chabot and the Sens have to slow down and that Philadelphia PP is better than it’s been performing. Plus I have Draisaitl so the thought of having McD and him is

The dream is that the Sharks would take him back.

I'm doing a quick peek at their cap room - nothing this year. But they do have a lot coming off the boards for next year - Pavelski, Thornton, Karlsson. That's $17.5 million.

If you let one of those guys walk, you probably have enough room to take back Marleau - which is a bit of a no-brainer if you do it on July 2nd.
