3rd line center points at best. Big, I get, but he doesn't do much with that. Not even a very strong defensive center. Average at best, so not a real shut down guy.

Jiri said it best. Plug n' play. Not going to hurt you a lot, but doesn't add a ton either.

What's the appeal? Why do teams continue to give up quality assets for this guy?

Seriously, I've watched him play a lot and I just don't get it. Somebody help me out.

Because centre is such a difficult position to play effectively at the NHL level that even a bog-standard #3C has value.

Anyone think Colorado is a dark horse for Marchand ?
