ODG67: In my wildest dreams I don't know how you can say the Leafs have no grit on defence. Gee, they had young team that made the playoffs. You want think an experienced defence like the Jets....Buff, Enstrom, Stuart, Myers plus Morrissey and Trouba would have been good enough to make the playoffs, but maybe that didn't have grit. I'll agree the Leafs didn't/don't have much functional toughness but geez, Trouba ain't that good. He is under Jets "control" for three years..
Marleau's production has.declined considerable in the last two years. To me it seems like a desperation move by the Leafs. As suggested earlier, his third year contract is going to cost Leafs a good player.
He can't be LTIRed or bought out for cap relief due to plus 35 signing..
