Pat Maroon, Flyers, 2 years, $5M
What can you say about Maroon, who now has back-to-back Stanley Cup championships with different teams?
He made it clear that he was looking for more than a one-year deal last summer, but he ended up having to settle for just that with the Tampa Bay Lightning.
An NHL executive might have put it perfectly back then: “He’s a dinosaur, but there’s no one left who knows how to play against a dinosaur.”
Even in his on-ice interview after winning the Stanley Cup, Maroon seemed to be pleading with potential teams to finally believe he can be an asset on a multiyear contract. That’ll be his target, but it’s hard to know if he’ll get there in a cap world.
