“Yeah, I imply, for the Sharks, it was both Morgan Rielly or Darnell Nurse. I feel that was a part of the thought course of. And it ended up Nurse got here to fruition, and so Riley wasn’t capable of step up within the meantime to say sure.
And whenever you get somebody to lastly come round you and agree, and that’s a man you’re focusing on, you sort of have to leap on it should you’re San Jose, as a result of that will not occur with the opposite man.
NHL Rumors: Anaheim Geese, Tampa Bay Lightning, and the Edmonton Oilers
So, I feel the fascinating half, with regards to San Jose, particularly with Rielly, you heard Darnell Nurse’s feedback. Like I’m advised the Sharks made a play for Darnell Nurse early final week, and a major one, like sort of the identical deal that they got here to the Oilers, took it to Nurse, and he stated ‘No.’ After which he got here again round on it, as they have been hoping that he would increase his record, and he stated everybody that I talked to was saying this group’s up and coming, this group’s going to be good, why wouldn’t you need to go there?
And so I’m a bit stunned ultimately that, as look, once more, Morgan Rielly’s days are numbered in Toronto. Why he wouldn’t come to that very same alternative and realization. And I feel from a match standpoint, Morgan Rielly most likely would have been higher for San Jose than Darnell Nurse particularly.
However nonetheless, Rielly stays. I don’t assume for very lengthy. The writing is on the wall. I feel Rielly is aware of that he’s not a part of the Leafs’ future plans, and so they’re going to must navigate that deftly for a man who’s been an excellent soldier. However they most likely additionally must press a bit bit, as a result of it doesn’t make a variety of sense to proceed on with Morgan Rielly in his present state.
