I think if you are prioritizing looking for a long-term partner for McCabe, you go for Pesce if it's for Rielly, then Roy. It's possible that Rielly-Pesce could be great, but I think Roy would fit better. I also don't think McCabe - Roy would be as good as McCabe - Pesce. Tanev would likely be a great partner for either guy, but he would be a very short-term solution. The difference in cost is something to consider of course. I could see Pesce costing up to 1M more than Roy, but maybe it would be 500K at most.
Assuming they can fit both Tanev and one of Pesce or Roy, I think I would lean toward adding Pesce, since it sounds like McCabe is likely to get an extension. Part of me wants to say Roy, so that they can get Rielly a partner and not worry about it again, but if Roy doesn't do well with him, then that would be problematic. At the same time, the Leafs can't cater to Rielly forever.
