I didn’t know Jones got Chicago a 2nd and a decent roster player…He’s not Seth Jones. No chance Florida would make that trade for Rielly.

Who is 1 partner you can confidently say "yup, Rielly really elevated that guy beyond what he is"? A real #1D can do it all on the ice, and leave whatever niche the low-paid partner can do.Rielly's never really been a strong defending defenseman in his whole career. The euphemism of having to find him a partner like a Ron Hainsey just really meant he needed a babysitter. He never grew out of it even as his role expanded, and all the other whipping boys moved on. First Gardiner, then Holl, then declining Brodie.
