Highstickin Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 Did I miss Dubas getting canned? This contract seems reasonable, there is no way he negotiated it. All jokes aside will be interesting to see how this contract ages. I like Reilly's game offensively and he appears to be a good leader for the team. My struggle would be at this point they are now down to $5 mill in cap space for next season while needing to fill out at least 5 roster spots, all of which are filled with players on ELC's or under 1.5 per. This signing is ok but it presents some challenges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caboose Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 Love to see it. This guy has been one of my favourite players since he came into the league. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKSR Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 Something has gotta give on their roster... they simply can't keep everybody into next year. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronic.Canuck Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 Reasonable price but Toronto will have 40 million (half the cap) tied up in 4 players next year (basically 1/6 of a team). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thoughts exactly. Rielly is a better player for $2 Million less. Dubas did well with this contract considering the hyper inflated D-Market. There's some work to do in Toronto... I can see a massive trade at the deadline if the Leafs continue to struggle, or a cap dump in the off-season. Have a hard time thinking the core 4 is kept together beyond this year.

Coconuts Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 Not a bad contract, but something is gonna have to give regarding their cap structure sooner than later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhillipBlunt Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 Will they trade Marner? He probably makes the most sense. Can't see them parting with Matthews or Tavares, and Nylander at least earns his salary. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-AJ- Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 Very solid contract. He hasn't been a Norris-level guy for a couple years, but he's still a very good player. I kind of think there's a home team discount here. Reilly wants to win and is taking less for it. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rekker Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 (edited) Lol. Reilly may be one of the most overrated dmen in the NHL. Good luck with this. He is basically a Tyson Barrie Edited October 29, 2021 by rekker 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
