Confirmed.

Leafs: 2020 sixth-round pick

Hurricanes: Patrick Marleau, a conditional first round pick (2020) and a seventh round pick (2020).

Shoutout to the leafs fan telling me the Canucks would have to add to take Marleau for his ‘veteran presence’ lmao

Can all the Leafs/ Jets fan on here just take a break? I can’t recall how many times they’ve called me or others on here clueless about player values, but after looking at the returns their players have gotten time and time again, they just need to look in the mirror and realize that they’re the ones way out in outer space and clueless on values, not us.

What a sad existence some people have that being right on a trade board is so important to them.

I wish I Yzerman took Marleau for this price. That would be a great deal.

Well done Canes and glad Leafs had to pay a hefty price to get out of their cap problems.

What a sad existence some have to attack people on a hockey board who don’t agree with how valuable their players are xDD *cough* Islandjet *cough*.

It was quite obvious they were going to have to pay to get rid of marleau cap hit didn't expect they would have to pay this much though.

Leafs made out like bandits on this one I thought they’d have to give Kappanen. Great deal for the leafs.

Carolina gouged the Leafs good and all the leaf homers were telling us that Marleau would net them a positive return. 😆

A first to dump a contract with only one year of term. Well done Dumbass! The rookie GM gets schooled again.

This post really shows how all over the place everyone’s thoughts are. Some think leafs gave too much and others think it’s good, including a non leaf fan. I’m guessing the truth lies in between.

Did someone really say Marleau would get a positive return? I’d love to know who. I’m guessing it wasn’t all the leaf homers like biasjoe suggests. “Rookie GM gets schooled again” I guess you’ve moved pass Chevy giving Trouba away. Why so much hate douche?

Anyone with common sense knew it was going to cost the Leafs something of value to entice a team to eat the last year of Marleau’s contract. My guess would have been Bracco or one of their D-prospects (the same way anyone with common sense could tell you Trouba wasn’t getting Nolan Patrick plus) .

I don’t think this is a bad look for Dubas either. He paid the price to fix a mistake made by his predecessor. If he can do the same with Zaitsev the Leafs cap problems are solved and they will be able to keep all of the young players they want to.

Who said Marleau would net Positive? Marcus, everyone can see the salt in you, because the Jets have done sh*t within the last week, you turn to leaf hating, ha.

I will admit, this is higher than I would’ve thought; I would’ve thought it would be like Bracco + Brown as a sweetener, or A 2nd++, but I think the only guy who thought Marleau would net positive is Pinny, so don’t generalize all leaf fans lmao.

It looks like the leafs are close with Kapanen and Johnsson. I heard 3.2-3.4 for Kapanen. I’m not an expert like some people on this site but I like that price tag. I was worried Kapanen would get 5. I hope they don’t sign these 2 and then trade them. If they keep everyone, obviously someone has to go to get a d man but I’m in with giving up a 1st to keep the core.

Similar deal for johnsson but 4 years. Great work by Dubie getting those two signed and safe from offersheets. They were the low hanging fruit because teams could make offers that would only cost them only 1st or 2nd. Used Marleau’s space for them.

I don’t like giving up a 1st again but the leafs have a lot of depth in the system, for now. If it allows everyone to get signed, great. I really think Dubas is doing alright. He should’ve traded Nylander the second he held out but whatever.

Id take those numbers with a grain of salt leafs17 I mean it's obviously just a guess by someone with no actual knowledge of the situation. You know as well as I do dubas and company would not be leaking any contract info on these two guys with the offer sheet period so close unless signing them already done. Not sayin this isn't the number they will sign for but it just looks to me someone cut marleaus cap hit in half and split it between the two of them lol.
