While the Leafs did pick up some assets, a bit underwhelming overall. Thought they got higher value on Roy, but slightly lower value on McMann.

That being said, off-season and draft day is what to look forward to.

Draft day trade

To SEA: D - M. Rielly

To TOR: 2026 1st + 2027 3rd

Looked at both the Carlson and Faulk trades, both went for a 1st and 3rd. So comparable.

Re-sign Stecker

Leafs D for next year

OEL Carlo
McCabe Tanev
Benoit Stecker
Myers

With the 1st draft best available Defenseman, preferably LHD.

Don't ever put Reilly and Carlson in the same conversation. Carlson is in a different league.

Reilly is the worst defenseman on a non playoff team. I would be happy for a 5th round pick and save his cap space. The Leafs cannot win with Reilly playing more than 00.0 minutes.

Rielly comparable to Carlson and Faulk?
Are you sure you’re following the same Leaf team as the rest of us?
Rielly is more comparable to Benoit and Myers than Carlson or Faulk.

I’m not sure we will ever see Tanev again; if true it’s too bad. A true warrior.

We need to make big changes to our D corps; it’s bad, so we will need to change it up significantly.

I see zero need to resign Stecher. He’s been fine, but remember we are not making the playoffs, so why on earth would we keep a 32 yo 5.10 184lb defenceman who has played for 6 different teams!

Yes, he’s paid only $787k, but I’d rather use that amount as part of the increase in salary that behemoth Logan Stanley will demand as a UFA.


And that’s if the Sabres don’t resign him!
