    call me crazy, but I think Marchand down the road could be a Corey Perry type player.

    solid in the points, and pest as well.

    Love his playing style.

    But that's just a hunch I got. Not many people will agree with me on this one

    As a Bruins fans who watched a lot of Bruins games all season I can not see marchand as a consistent 70 point player. I love the kid he is a gritty and talented but with Juliens system it will limit his numbers for sure. If he was to be able to play under another coach (like may Bruins forwards) his numbers would go up. He should be a very nice multi cat player for a few years. I own him and really want to keep him but I cant justify him over any of the 10 I am going to keep so far.

    The one thing I'll say about him is he isn't a very good passer... I noticed several times in the playoffs where he had the vision to pick out a passing lane but he just could never seem to deliver a good pass... I think 33-32-65ish is going to be his max upside.

    I would agree with the above. I'd be capitalizing and selling high if you are an owner. He'll be one hell of an effective NHL'r, though.

    He seems to be like a Wing-version of Pavelski. Playoff stud, but won't do that much during the season. He'll be solid, but depending on the league format he may not be worth keeping. Thats just my gut projection though.
