Talk about Marchand’s playoff run all you want, I’m just glad my team gave up a little more to get Scott Laughton instead.

Reposted from The Athletic

Brad Marchand’s been the perfect fit for a Panthers team that prides itself on taking care of each day.

And when Florida has needed it most, Marchand has consistently met the moment.

Kinda thinking Marchand told the Bruins he wanted to go to FLA only.

Seems plausible.

Also, FLA wasn't getting another year of Marchand at 50% retained.

Yeah, sure they're kicking themselves over that right now.

I don't think they are remotely upset or bothered.

But the cost difference is explainable.

The Leafs are very risk averse. Incessant theme that prevents them from making necessary moves.

Always need a centre that plays like a winger, tho!

Me too, DGB, me too.

whenever you say the Leafs can't hurt you anymore, I think you're lying to us so you can lie to yourself. But good news you have Laughton next year too.
