I can't help but wonder what may have been happening in our solar system around this time that could include both events - if at all. Most likely none but human curiosity tries to find connections when there's little information combined with (relatively) close events. So much more to learn.
I wish I could go in stasis and pop out about once every ten years to catch up on science progress and take in new foods and entertainment for about a week then pop back in. Life is too short to contain my curiosity. And of course I wonder why ha!

Hands down the worst article title I have ever seen on this site. There is no plausible connection between the K-T extinction 65mya and Martian volcanoes that stopped erupting 15 million years later. The way the article is written also fosters the faulty idea that there might be some connection. Martian volcanoes are interesting, this article needs to be re-written w/o the clickbait grade title & other faults.

@nrauhauser said it all. Nothing to add.
Articles like this one shouldn't be published.

what to do when people are interested in dinosaurs and not mars volcanos?. Easy put a title that have dinosaur in it and after the short introduction, never mention dinosaur again, cause they don't have any relations between those two events.

Not an issue with the paper, but with the article above:

deep enough to hold the entire volume of water in Lake Huron, and then some

This seems like a particular useless measure.
1) Anyone have an idea how much water is in lake Huron (without looking it up)
2) How much more is "and then some"? 5%? 50%? 80%?

On the morning 18 Jan 2017, my wife vacuumed the lower floor of our house. Less than 30 minutes later an earthquake shook central Italy. Coincidence, Elizabeth?
