He didn't. People like to make things up to support an agenda around here. This is a prime example

Elite #1D who plays with Hainsey. His performance just shows how little HF knows about hockey. After all, there is still a debate whether or not he's a legit #1.
Goes up against top pairing competition and continues to blossom offensively. A stud two-way #1 d-man with room to grow. Very jealous of the Leafs for having this guy and I think if hockey fans at large weren't so allergic to giving Toronto players credit there'd be more (non-Toronto-based) chatter about him. Also has to drag around the corpse of Ron Hainsey LOL
Isles fans discussing him on their board doesn't constitute "in the discussion".

I would hope so, all he has do to do is skate above average and be able to pass the puck to one of the hottest lines in hockey. Reminds we AHL super star was +50 when he had to pass to a prime Semin, Ovie, Backstrom line and hfboards thought he was an elite shutdown d-man lmao.
By new years he was 10th in scoring and -13. Not that plus minus is a good stat but he was getting scored on in bunches.
Pretty sure any discussion of him for the norris would be isles fans and then the rest of the world laughing.

Hey, it wasn't me comparing anything about his game,to Bobby Orr back in 2012. But it WAS said.
Central Scouting’s Peter Sullivan said of Rielly. “He’s got that [Bobby] Orr-ish quality about him. He can change the game in all areas of the ice, so I’m not surprised he stayed at No. 5(in spite of his injury) simply because of how good this kid is.”

Nah, you're good. No worries. I just found it funny.
Sure. I couldn't care less. The leafs are one of the best teams in the league. The Norris trophy is very far down my list of things I'd like to happen.

The only reason I don't pump the gas on Dmen that put up crazy points is how much are they involved? Is it more impressive for a player to put up a ppg as a dman if they have no stars around them? Or does that make it not as impressive because they are the only option.
Reily is not the only option on that team, but their high low offense makes him play more as a fwd. It's like Subban or Josi on nashville putting up 60 pts as dmen, the dmen are just as much offensive players as the forwards.
So by eyeball and stat wise I am impressed by Reily's production, and play. However with the talent around him as the Number one D on a high powered offense. I'd expect him to be around a ppg but Karlsson just for what team he was on was more impressive.
So awesome for him, but we shall see if it last 82 and the playoffs. I don't doubt him, however it's still worth a moment to see on.

Mostly due to his unreal start at the start of the season. 5 points in the last 8 games. Still very impressive though.
Threads about leafs players never end well. Can we just appreciate the talent of players from any team?

Well Chabot has 2 less pts in 1 less game and he's doing it on the Sens.Imagine if he played on the Leafs.
