As if Patrick Marleau‘s time as a Maple Leaf did not already appear in jeopardy, today’s news otherwise cements the notion that it is all but over. Less than one week after Pierre LeBrun reported of Kyle Dubas‘ participation in trade discussions with the Los Angeles Kings that centred around his ageing winger, Marleau has now reportedly taken matters one step further and put his Toronto home up for sale.
It’s a less than surprising development in the grand scheme of things, serving as yet another indication that Marleau will indeed be swapping area codes come next season.
