Depends if they thought at the time of the signing if he was the piece to put them over the top in regards to a SC winner.
I doubt he is, but they may believe otherwise...and if he is, he will more than cover that 17 million in a number of ways.
he is getting raded, there is no doubt unless they can somehow convince Marleau to waive his NMC which is a pipe dream at this point. Even then I'm not sure that allows them enough room to re-up both Marner and Matthews.
