Not a Leafs fan but I love that move for the leafs. Getting a former selke winner, stanley cup winner, proven great guy in the dressing room all for $1.8 million plus getting a very reliable experienced fourth liner is great work. Yes it's a lot to give up but that's what it takes to get good players. I would rather have O'Reilly than Tarasenko so I think what Toronto gave up will be comparable to that.
Will be interesting how they lineup now, likely have O'Reilly centering his own line, maybe him and Kerfoot would be good together. In a perfect world they still have someone play 2LW and have Kerf - O'Reilly - Jarnkrook as a very very good third line.
