Proposal: Who do we move Morgan Rielly for?

[TML Dynasty]

Reilly Brodie
Muzzin Holl
Sandin Liljegrin
Dermott

Im on the side of not liking Reilly's game lately but a lot of posters that I respect here seem to be huge fans of his.
So I guess as long as his ask is reasonable then sure lets consider it......Is this our D next year then? We'll probably lose someone to expansion draft.

Id like Sandin higher in the lineup. But if we are keeping Reilly and Muzzin......

Glad I have faith in the front office and will just sit back and see what happens.

Rielly with another great game. Captain Morgan showing why trading him in the middle of our Cup Window would be insanely short sighted.

On the flip side of the coin, our powerplay looked amazing amirite?

 

[Stephen]

If he continues to play like he has in the playoffs he will have played himself right back into the Leafs plans.

 

[johnny_rudeboy]

He should be a Leaf for his entire career.

 

[Mugzy97]

We can and we will keep Morgan

 

[MattySnipes]

I'd hang onto him tbh. Plus he still has a few yrs left. Not like he's leaving in 1 or 2 months.

Brodie, Rielly, Muzzin, Holl, Bogo, Sandin, Liljegren

That's a damn good d core.

 

[JT AM da real deal]

When Tyson Barrie shows up in a top 10 list I completely tune out everything related to those stats .. he is scared of his own shadow

The love for Reilly is toxic. Price gifted that goal to Reilly, it was total fluke. Price cheated and left his net cuz Reilly is obsessed with not shooting and it backfired. Watch literally 60 seconds later, Reilly has a similar chance in the slot to walk into a lane and blast a shot. Id move Reilly 100% in the offseason, 300% Reilly has suspect hockey sense, no confidence, cut ties man, its not a family tree.

Seattle for nothing

While hes no Lidstrom, he's not a purely offensive dman. He's been arguably our best defensive dman this series so far

Brodie is our only D who hasn’t been on the ice for a goal against.

 

[Michael HOMERUNing]

I don't think trading him has ever crossed the mind of management.

I wasn't happy with his play throughout the season, and defensively in recent years, but he's having a great playoffs - guess I have to wait till after to really form an opinion on this. But if they were to trade him I'd imagine it would have to be for a player that can contribute today. Would love to grab another top 4 two-way defenseman - could never have too much of those.

Let's move our best "insert position here" for magic beans cause those beans may turn into the best player in the entire league, and we still won't be happy with how he performs even if it does!

The beans will lead us to a giant of a player and golden goose riches for MLSE though...

 

[Michael HOMERUNing]

WOW.......you have to be AMAZING to be better than Morgan Reilly

Well yeah. I'd say he's at ABSOLUTE WORST a top 78 defenseman in the world. So you would basically have to be among the top 0.000001% in talent to be better

love is toxic? lol i have heard it all here. When you score a goal in the NHL playoffs against Price you deserve respect. Reilly has been one of our better players this series. He isnt perfect but he should not be shouldering all the blame for whatever misfortunes we have had in the past. ITS A TEAM GAME.

Damn, I was way off. Rielly has been on for one goal against. (And to be fair, it came after I posted that)

 

[johnnybbadd]

Reilly will be a very good dman at least until his mid 30s. Most of his eat skills are going to age well and his skating won’t decline to level that will be noticeable barring a major injury. Lock him up.

 

[Le Cobra]

2021 playoffs Rielly is a dramatic improvement compared to 2013 playoffs Rielly

 

[Ciao]

No need to trade Rielly. He's a core player, and a keeper.

 

[BlueAzN]

We don't. We keep him and continue to ride his sexy ass.

You mean 2018 Rielly? 2013 he was in Moosejaw still. Rielly has always been a great playoff player he just looks one step better rn.

Pfft....he's easily top 75.

what are you smoking?

 

[Super Mega]

Rielly has been amazing this playoffs, got to find a way to keep him

Pretty sure Rielly didn't play the 2013 playoffs. Don't think there's anyone left from that team.
