The Maple Leafs’ defensive struggles have raised questions about Morgan Rielly’s fit. A trade could bring the stability Toronto needs while reshaping its blue line for long-term success.
Morgan Rielly, much like the Maple Leafs as a whole, has had an up-and-down start to the season. Offensively, he’s been one of Toronto’s most reliable producers on the back end, posting 3 goals and 14 assists for 17 points in 22 games. At this pace, he’s tracking toward his best offensive season since 2018-19.
