Sure in terms of pure talent, but if NHL coaches see some value in playing Maroon with top six players something about his skill set makes him worthy of the ice time right?
Lots of good teams play 3rd line talent guys in their top six. Maroon in Anaheim with Getz/Perry. Tom Wilson with this year's cup champs. Dwight King with Kopitar in 13/14.
I think this shows Maroon has proven himself worthy of a $3 mil per year contract such as Roussel or Ryan.
