8 years at 7.5 million a season

 

[jaric1862]

Unexpected and great news

If it's 7.5 per then it's a steal

 

[Darcy Tucker]

Woooooooo

Holl pass for Ms. SANDIN

 

[Mickey Marner]

About a million more than I'd like, but at least it's not Jones/Hamilton territory.

 

[hotpaws]

great news and a fair deal for both sides

 

[Channelcat]

Great news for Leaf fans. This seems to suggest that he really wanted to stay in Toronto

 

[tom leafers]

with the way GM's have been handing out stupid contracts, im happy with this!

one of Dubas' best contracts? lol

 

[SprDaVE]

This is really good and fair. I was fully expecting 8x8M+. Rielly staying here for likely his career is huge. He's been a warrior since day one. I'm a happy fan today.

 

[LeafsNation149]

Amazing deal!!!

 

[ruaware41]

No real discount for the team. Fair contract I guess

 

[SniperOnTheWing]

Not bad. Nice work Dubas.

 

[ryno23]

Decent contract and now when you move Marner's 11 mil this year or this offseason you can retool the team

 

[Mats13]

Honestly a pretty good contact

Especially when you look at what players like Seth Jones got

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Oh wow, didn’t expect this. Good for Rielly. Good contract.

Rielly is likely a career Leaf now, really hope we can add some great playoff memories for his career. Jeez a career Leaf, when was the last time that happened?

 

[Amadeus]

Very good deal for a top pairing D-man.

 

[Joufreau]

out of nowhere!

hard to not like this deal considering what # 1 defensemen have been getting lately

 

[The Iceman]

Team friendly. Won't get the marner treatment

[forecheck]

The extra year made it possible for Reilly to only leave a little on the table - Assuming he would have got 9 mill x 7 on the open market - - Good deal and happy he is staying - One of the few I like on this team .

 

[dubplatepressure]

Ok, not bad. Not amazing, but not bad.

 

[hotpaws]

No real discount for the team. Fair contract I guess

of course there was a massive discount

Elliott just reported that his home town team Van was preparing to offer him at least 10m x 7 yrs if he became a ufa , lol .

 

[Paradoc]

Great deal.

I will always appreciate those that would take a discount to stay with the team.
