LW- Mason Marchment, 24, 6’4, 220- 

AHL (GP; 22, G; 11, A; 4, PTS; 15)

NHL (GP; 3, G; 0, A; 1, PTS; 1)

After a brief stint with the Toronto Maple Leafs, Mason is back to being that huge presence for the Toronto Marlies. In Mason’s last 15 games with the Marlies, he has 12 points in that span, scoring 6 goals in his last 3 games.

He seems to have found his scoring touch and is making a case to get re-called by management. He plays a style that is needed on the Leafs, with a lot of physicality and offensive ability around the net. Needless to say, the Marlies are a better team with him in the lineup. Marchment is currently in a second line role on the Marlies

ETA; 2020-21, potentially now- The Toronto Maple 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 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.
