Whenever you get a new coach you get that initial push. The Berube effect is wearing off. This is with Tanev out last year's team. It's time to make a major trade and I think Reilly is that guy. We don't have the pieces to play the style Berube wants and this isn't a contender. Don't resign Tavares we haven't done anything yet.

If we could trade Rielly and get something else that would be amazing

We don’t and our 5v5 numbers are not good offensively even tho we have probably 3 of the top 20 players in the game. Just because Carolina has doesn’t mean squat concerning the leafs. We are trying to put a square peg in a round hole here.
If you can’t see the struggles we have offensively here I don’t know what to say except Merry Christmas :)
Yes - we've scored 69 goals 5on5 this year (16th most) and given up 56 (3rd fewest). Not good.

I wish.

Shanahan maybe but I’m convinced we’re stuck with this core until they either retire or walk voluntarily.

Better strap yourself in for the next decade.
I think they’re content with that - being in a playoff race every year has its benefits. They still market themselves as one of the best teams in Canada even though they’re probably the 5 th best.
