curious what this is gonna look like

 

[Boomstick]

Interesting.

 

[BLNY]

4x4.5. Wow.

 

[thefutures]

4x4.5

 

[JKG33]

This one makes sense

 

[Shane Diesel]

What the hell is Nashville doing?

 

[SI90]

Great move by Trotz

 

[Canadian Canuck]

Cheap

 

[CrazyDuck4u]

Nash is loading up. They are not rebuilding

 

[hamzarocks]

He was pretty cooked at times so a risk doing 4 year term

Hopefully works put for the preds

 

[Dominance]

Why though. Dude’s already made a bunch of money, why not go to a real contender.

 

[CatchyTune]

Theyre stealing our character!

For real tho this is not a very big contract and im surprised we couldnt match

 

[leafsfan5]

Culture change underway in Nashville

Schenn + ROR are great pieces for that

 

[Umingmak]

I don’t get this. They’re on the downswing. Why would an aging vet sign there?

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

So, they're competing ?

 

[Mobiandi]

Awful contract

 

[MapleLeafs9]

Do not let his point totals here in Toronto fool you, Ryan O'Reilly is WASHED and this will be a bad deal.

 

[BlueDream]

Gonna look gross in that jersey.

 

[The Blunder Years]

Buddy just wants to kick start his country music career

 

[Icebreakers]

Replacing Johansen and Duchene with a guy like Orielly seems like a lateral move? Especially when you are retaining on both.

 

[TheReelChuckFletcher]

Hahahahahaha I called it on the Schenn board. It's as obvious as day. O'Reilly is possibly the best veteran presence available in UFA right now as far as reputation is concerned.

 

[jetsforever]

Darn, was hoping he'd stay at TML

 

[thethirdhockeyman91]

Trotz likes the grizzled vets.

 

[Go Wings]

What the hell is Nashville doing?

They literally have no good forwards signed besides Forsberg. They need to fill out the forward roster.
