Martin can be replaced by anyone. We found this out 2 years ago.

No he’s irreplaceable. That sounds almost as weird.

Not sure he’s ready to retire. He’s been fantastic in PO’s.
- TogaIsles

He has. We didn’t see that all season from him lets be honest and good for him for doing that but do you want to sign for two years? I really think Lou isn’t going to sign him I think it’ll be another team.

If Martin signs with the Rangers you wish him the best besides when he’s playing us. He made a pus for himself in the playoffs but he’s a player for a group of young guys that aren’t there yet. Perfect fit for the Rangers really.

Martin would be a good fit and the Isles cannot overpay because the Rangers have interest. Just would hate Ross having to take on Martin.

Ironically, Martin has been far more valuable these playoffs than Eberle.........who makes more than twice as much.
- JohnScammo

This!! 100% JS.

Isles philosophy (or so it seems) has been to pay more for higher end low level players, than to pay high end top line players big dollars. Who is our current highest paid player and what is the amount?

I do realize this is about to change w Barzal and Pulock and maybe a few others needing to be extended.

I disagree. Lou went and traded for him to bring back to isles and also brought him into TO first. He obviously likes something about him. I’d be ok w resigning him for 1yr $1M. He’s hardly injured **knocks on wood ** and he’s such a great guy and teammate.

They were celebrating when he signed with Toronto and hated on Lou for trading for him so he gets no love from the Girls Club.

Forget about the 1 million it’ll be for more than one year and that’s exactly why (I hope) Lameriello won’t sign him. Always liked Martin even though I hated admittedly us trading for him and helping the Leafs but his time has come unfortunately.

So what are you thinking nice three year deal for Martin at 2 million per? You’re cool with that?

I think you’re riding purely on luck in all honesty. Just my two cents.
