Confirmed with Link: [TOR/FLA] Denis Malgin for Mason Marchment

[Legion34]

Maybe the past 20 games he's had a change of heart. Many would. Keep him if he has his heart set on staying though. I'd even sign him to another 1 year deal with a slight raise if he would sign for 1M or less.

Ok ya I guess that’s fair. If he really wants to go somewhere let him go and touch base in July.

But if he wants to stay don’t force him out. Would be brutal for future ufa

 

[DarkKnight]

Maybe an upgrade over Gauthier in the four hole? I mean he plays like he's 5 9 anyways, so...

 

[Leafsfan74]

holy crap you can't seriously be advocating for a Spezza trade. Sounds like a great way to turn off every veteran FA for awhile.

Hey hometown kids, don't come here for a minimum salary and vastly overperform, we'll ship you out! We have too many leaders and feel-good stories on this team already, clearly.

Spezza has shown sparks of his old self. Especially his willingness to fire shots.

I'd say there is little upside to trading him. What will you get in return? He might even do well on a line with Clifford.

There's little risk there for a 10-11 min. a game player at his salary. As long as he is staying positive and accepting his role at his age. He is getting far more points with less ice time. He's done his part. He just needs to stop taking lazy penalties from time to time. Keep it simple, use his shot more (he has of late) rather than trying to score as he would have 10 years ago.

STOP sticking up for this useless general manger. FIRE him now.

Look at you throwing shade at the GM that just got us Evgeni Malgin for spare parts!

This reminds me of a time when little known Marty St. Louis was traded to Tampa Bay.

Mason Marchment is no Martin St. Louis

 

[al secord]

did acquiring Petan and Carcone also remind you of when T-Bay traded for St,Louis ?

No. But you must be fun at parties.

He's a spy... will have intel on the Panthers for their upcoming games. Brilliant move by Dubas. Playoffs are a lock now....

Just need someone from the Bruins and TB now.

Hopefully one of the Canadian teams gets to the finals so we can have 7 home games.

 

[The Iceman]

why? we already have spezza, gauthier, engvall and kerfoot for the 3C and 4C role.

Might give more flexibility come trade deadline day having a guy who can play 4th line centre.
I am hoping this means bye bye Kerfoot.

Who needs a pro scouting department? We do, apparently.

Oh it's not Alex Malginy ?

Rather fire posters like you into the sun.
Much more productive and satisfying

 

[Walshy7]

its like a lesser impactful version of
Greg McKegg for Zach hyman

edit: in terms of barely NHLer for Nhler who turned into a high level nhler. hopefully lighting strikes twice and Malgin takes a leap

Exactly what we needed.

Exactly what we needed.

An NHL player for an AHL player.

Grit wasn't the problem and really never was. Funny enough the lack of skill is the problem and this trade helps that. Marchment isn't very good so I like this deal.

Denis Malgrin? Just another Swiss tough guy!

If Malkin 2.0 turns out like Hyman that's a homerun considering the "cost"

 

[Marshy]

Malgin teammates with Matthews in Zurich...both about the same age. Very interesting.

Marner back with JT.

Nylander to 3C.

Malgin RH shot...plays RW....opening on Auston's right side.

Kerfoot deal imminent. E5

 

[Blue Nate]

This like the Lindholm/Petan swap. Limited upside players in Marchment/Lindholm moved for a high skilled forward struggling to produce consistently in the NHL in Petan/Malgin.

 

[WillNy29]

Looks like Dubas was pissed he was forced into taking some size. He needed to make this pint sized deal.

Didnt dubas just trade for clifford?

 

[Al14]

We got Malkin!!

Wake up, you're dreaming again!

 

[The Man with a Plan]

Didnt dubas just trade for clifford?

Shhhh

Logic dont go 'round these parts...

i clearly said a lesser impactful version of the hyman deal. i doubt malgin gets any higher than 3rd liner if all goes well but marchment isnt an nhler so its already a win

 

[18leafsfan18]

Most are saying Marchment is an AHLer

Dubas trades AHL player for NHL player and still gets roasted.

Some people never change their narrative.
