LW- Mason Marchment, 24, 6’4, 220- AHL (GP; 7, G; 2, A; 1, PTS; 3)

After coming back from a mysterious injury, Mason is back to being that huge presence for the Toronto Marlies.

Marchment’s injury wasn’t disclosed with the public, so that was a lot of speculation as to what was wrong- was it his shoulder? His leg? Or was it his back?

Needless to say, the Marlies are a better team with him in the lineup.

ETA; 2020-21, The Leafs have an impending cap crunch as previously mentioned, Marchment has a cap hit of 756K that runs till the end of this season.

Mason will more than likely make the same amount as his current contract, being able to fit into the cap structure easily.

Scouting report; Marchment plays a style that is needed on the Toronto Maple Leafs roster, big, bruising, in your face and is able to help offensively. Think of a Tom Wilson type when looking at Marchment’s game.
