It won’t last, but still funny. An OHL team or overseas are probably where he will end up this season.

He’s moody. He’s the bad kind of cocky. Selfish on the ice. Has anger issues and can’t control his emotions. Lastly, nothing is ever his fault. The weird thing is, all these things only come out when he enters the arena.

Peterborough just told Merkley to not even come to their city. They are having trouble trading him because nobody wants him.

Want to hear hilarious? Merkley is playing Jr. B this season now.

how is that even possible?

He’s doing well in SJ’s camp by all reports. Hasn’t looked out of place in his games, but he just can’t be a pro yet. Junior is his only option along with overseas. What level Jr? It won’t stay B for long.

Apparently the Junior B thing wasn't correct, but who knows

To be fair, it was a very low-risk signing, and if it doesn't work out, it doesn't have much impact.

Agreed, and it likely won't work out - and I also understand he wanted to be close to his family, but what a way to end your career. If he's not scratched half of the games, I'll be very surprised.

So they're moving him to the wing? Will he still take faceoffs? I think he led the league in faceoff win percentage last year.

Kinda surprised to see the point deal. I’d imagine someone would have offer sheeted him a large contract at a much higher AAV.

Guess he really wants to stay in Tampa.

Yeah we may never know but someone may have thrown him one and he turned it down.

i'm not a huge fan of the deal for either team to be honest. Don't see much upside either side

Bokk is going to be very good and Faulk can already be internally replaced by better players in Hamilton or Gardiner.
