GDT: 2024 Free Agency - July 1st - 12 P.M.

[ZachaFlockaFlame]

I want Marchessault at a high AAV but lower term, give him 6-6.5x3 and call it a day. He's exactly the forward this top 6 needs. And he'd be awesome with Bratt/Jack

 

[HoliksGhost]

I take a 40 goal scorer at 6.3 all day.

Every day

 

[Darkauron]

Jonathan Marchessault is so f***ing good. Huge if true

 

[youryeah]

marchessault on jack's wing would be so lit. he'd pot 40 easily

 

[Japam]

Lou and the "don't worry about my cap" meme will never get old

 

[HoliksGhost]

AFPA has Marchessault projected at 3 years / 6.3M AAV. If that's accurate:

6.125 (Pesce) + ~6.3 (March) would leave us like ~5.5-6M in space to re-sign Mercer and add a LD. Pretty doable.

How do you say Marchessault ?

Asking for a friend

 

[ZachaFlockaFlame]

Marchessault can easily play the bumper too on PP1 which has plagued us and he's a right handed shot

Nothing concrete, obviously, but he's broken news before.

 

[EnglishDevil]

Marchessault is awesome and his game should age fairly well in my opinion. His playoff experience would be a huge add for this team too.

 

[AfroThunder396]

Just FYI, our beat staff will probably not be very active today with reporting signings today. They are doing media with Paul Cotter and doing the prospects camp.

March-uh-sow...I think?

 

[Devils Trap]

March is just a better skating Toffoli, which is a good thing

 

[Mgd31]

Marchessault>Stamkos

 

[Hockey Sports Fan]

I think it’s safe to say we’re not getting Pesce, Dillon, Connecticut Whale Rookie of the Year Jonathan Audy-Marchessault, AND Steven Stamkos. Not unless Palat or Haula are getting traded.

 

[New Jersey Devils]

Anything less than 3 years and ill take whatever the AAV is.

 

[Davegarri]

So if we get Marchessault, does Mercer get bumped down to 3RW? Or do we try Meier at LW again?

 

[SteveCangialosi123]

His skating metrics are actually really poor but he similarly doesn’t rely on his skating. And it won’t matter if he’s on Jack’s hip.

Sounds like the sell job we got with palat. Pass

Meier LW

yeah these are nearly identical players you’ve absolutely nailed it

Why would Palat need to be traded? He's never stopped us from doing anything.....

 

[Lindys Lazy Eye]

Sounds like the sell job we got with palat. Pass

@Dylan9z9 's favorite player

 

[Saugus]

Adding Marchessault to our top 6 would make our forward corps better than almost any in the league. He should do well playing with Hughes and Mercer.

Bratt and Meier will probably stick with Nico.

And Palat and Haula will go to the third line where they should be.

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

I think it’s safe to say we’re not getting Pesce, Dillon, Connecticut Whale Rookie of the Year Jonathan Audy-Marchessault, AND Steven Stamkos. Not unless Palat or Haula are getting traded.

it sounds like Stamkos is going to go to Vegas

 

[Oneiro]

Wonder what Mercer's deal is gonna look like now.
