Thread: Rielly trade ideas
It’s funny how everyone values players on here.

Ristolainen can’t play defence, he fetched 13th overall and a 2nd rounder.

Jones also can’t play defence, he fetched two firsts (one of which was 11th overall) and a top prospect in Boqvist.

Everyone on here is so quick to say “Rielly isn’t worth that” but in reality, he is.
Rielly isn’t all that amazing of a defender but is at least on par if not better than both of those two. He is also miles better offensively than Risto and at least on par with Jones.
Now, I’m not saying Morgan Rielly is this amazing dman that should demand a king’s ransom but he would bring in something near Jones.

A source on Twitter (that has not been revealed, so we can’t be absolutely certain of it’s reliability but we can use some common sense) stated that Morgan Rielly’s current value would be near Jones’, 2 firsts and a good prospect.

You can argue all you want but it is true. Morgan Rielly is not “only worth a first and a third.” He is a guy who plays top pair and can produce offensively at an elite level, despite his struggles this year.
