with retained salary like that will cost way more than that. Ekholm makes Toronto a worse team Reilly is a puck mover ekholm is not hes a shutdown D.

Nashville already said forsberg will not be moved.

Not even without retention. Awful return for NSH.

@Zmach 's implied conclusion is 100% accurate: you've added offense to a team which is already too much offensively for most teams in the NHL, but you've subtracted substantially from a defense that doesn't impress too many observers as a playoff defense. But take out Forsberg, Reilly and the Ekholm retention and the exchange makes sense.

I don't think Nashville would be high on the list of teams needing Rielly, considering they would still have Josi and Ellis after moving Ekholm.

If anything wouldn't Nashville want a star forward back if moving both Ekholm and Forsberg in a deal?
