Player Discussion: Matt Martin

[PK Cronin]

I think most of his salary for next year was already paid out as a bonus, that's why they couldn't dump him before.

His cap hit is the same, right?

 

[PWJunior]

Something has to be happening soon...

Part of me is thinking that Lou is in the midst of pulling a Sonny Weaver type of move, but I just don't see it.

We are the goon squad now, no one is pushing us around. Why not add the Hanson brothers now too?

 

[IslesRock4]

More 5th liners! Woo! But I loved Matty, I hate this much less than Komarov/Filppula/Kuhnhackl.

 

[Wanderson]

 

[seabass45]

Correct.

Something has to be happening soon...

Oh of course, just not something good.

 

[TeamKidd]

sure. why not. just line up 6 guys along the goal line and dare them to score.

 

[IslesRock4]

Also, I bet the Leafs have the cap space to steal de Haan from us now.

 

[BMOK33]

We are gonna win lots of fights. 2/28 gonna be a blood bath

 

[steveat]

Why???

 

[Instant]

Johnston is bad.

Johnston is a better, faster version of Martin.

 

[Wanderson]

Sweet. Gives us one less thing to worry about.

Matty Marts is my favorite player and I'm thrilled that he's back. Still I'm not sure why Lou did this. Matty has always done a lot for the community. Welcome back home.

If I don't see a Michael Haley signing soon, I'm gonna be pissed.

 

[Brunomics]

Why?

"And I want David goddam Putney, because I feel like it!"

 

[Lights911]

I like Matt Martin but how many 4th liners are we going to get

 

[IslesNorway]

What the hell is the point in all of this?? Kicking Tavares' was is the only thing I can think of

 

[dv92]

So glad he's back! EK I promise Long Island is an amazing place to live.

 

[Bacon Artemi Bravo]

Did Lou just help facilitate the JT deal? Seems weird to me.

 

[beach]

Johnston is bad.

Actually was excellent on the fourth line.

 

[seabass45]

So now we have Lee-Ladd-Komarov-Martin on LW.

 

[Kevin27NYI]

Well idk what the lines are going to look like next year but maybe we’re just gonna hang for a year and get Hughes? Or try at least.. and then go all out for winning? Idk.

Individually I like the move. Coupled around everything else idk.

 

[SI90]

I don't understand this move.

We're definitely unloading someone now.

This just paved the way to let TOR sign CDH. You watch.

 

[ndgolden]

Johnston is a better, faster version of Martin.

And 1.75 mill less.
