I like the player...but power forwards do not age well. So this is hopefully (somehow) a reasonable contract in both term and dollars.

Guess he didn’t learn from the Brouwer deal.

I don't mind it I guess, but a bit of a let down after thinking about potentially acquiring ROR for the last 20 minutes or so.

We need some size. We need a guy that can finish. We need a guy that can play with high skilled players. Maroon checks all the boxes. I’d be happy with that signing depending on term and cap hit. A nice complimentary piece that addresses the top line gap for the immediate future. That is one thing sorely missing in our system, a big body on the wing with some skill. If Jankowski could play RW!

ugh... BT takes two steps forward and then one step back if this is accurate.

not a fan of Maroon and don't think he can play in today's NHL

If true, and it’s a ways from that, as mentioned there has to be some other movement for the logjam on the bottom 6 from last year.
Bennett Janko Foo for ROR, for example.

Still not quite comparable. Maroon actually has a history of being a positive impact on his team and line mates.

...unlike Mr. Leechy Mc. Anchor Pants Troy Brouwer.

Not the first choice for me either, but it admittedly fills a glaring need on the team.

Over the last 8 years, 100% of Oiler wingers traded to New Jersey go on to win the Hart Trophy two years later. Very smart move.

Maroon is LH LW. I don't really see the need for him. He's got size but not speed.
