The connection to Marner obviously helps, though with the forward probably leaving the team after this season, will Martin want to sign now or wait until he finds out where Marner goes. He would fit the mould of new coach Berube although his lack of production could lead him to have minimal minutes; meanwhile Toronto already employs
Ryan Reaves. Having two players who produce points at a much, much lower rate than their teammates can really handicap a team especially if opponents decide to swarm them with elite players.
