@mark_scheig I'll buy it if Waddell actually makes a significant forward trade. If not, he doesn't then we know this statement is bullshit just to get through the next year until Zach's trade list is handed in.
@cyduckz@weathermandave_ He doesn't control that option. If he doesn't extend next summer he'll be traded to one of the 10 teams on his list he has to submit.
@JW_eats_plastic@CBJCannonCrew He doesn't control whether or not he reaches free agency. The only thing he decides is when he gets traded at this point. It's either now or next summer when he submits his 10 team trade list.
@biztimes10@NHLRumourReport@Ihatewinter2026 He has to submit a 10 team trade list next summer. The only way this ends now is with a trade out of Columbus, it's just up to him when it happens, not if.
@NHLRumourReport Lol, do this "insane" package for Marchenko doesnt even have hage in it? Guarantee Seravalli just thinks Marchenko is shit and he thinks Dach + a 1st is an overpay.
@1stOhioBattery I don't think you can possibly keep Marchenko going into the season. The way he and his agent embarrassed the organization should be unacceptable to them. If they have any self respect he'll be gone.
@ManninTheCannon He has to submit a 10 team trade list next summer. If the Jackets want to trade him he'll be traded at some point before the contract expires.
@mark_scheig How can anyone be expected to believe what this fraud has to say? "I'll get more for thr cap space" when Laine was traded. "We're going to make big additions" two summers in a row. "Marchenko is happy here" and on and on with the lies. Truth is he couldn't get a trade done.
@TheFourthPeriod Should just trade him for nothing. Whoever they get is just gonna ask for a trade before long too. The McConnells selling is the only thing the Jackets haven't tried to turn the franchise around. It's beyond time for it to happen.
