Rather than join the Penguins Marsh opted for the Cincinnati Stingers of the World Hockey Association (WHA). He played three seasons there.
His NHL rights had been traded to the Montreal Canadiens as part of the Pete Mahovlich trade. When the WHA and NHL merged in 1979, Marsh ended up with the Winnipeg Jets.
He spent part of that season with the Jets and then was traded to the Chicago Black Hawks. After a couple of years there he retired in 1984.
