Why Rielly and Chabot? Surely you dont need any more PP QBs when you already have Makar, Theodore, Hamilton, Pietrangelo

MAF>Price

Has nothing to do with PP. Both are solid in both end of the rink and can get the puck up to our skilled forwards

Both are pretty bad defensively, overall they are still good D men because their offense is good enough to outweigh their defensive flaws but in a non PP role there are much better options who are significantly better defensively while also not far behind in terms of even strength offense. Devon Toews and Adam Pelech would be much better suited for the last 2 D spots and can actually kill penalties too. The only guys in your top 6 who kill penalties regularly is Pietrangelo and Hamilton- half of your regular PKers are going to be offensive D men, and when Hamilton inevitably takes a penalty then 3/4 of your PK D men will be offensive guys.

Devon Toews and Adam Pelech are elite PKers and also elite shutdown guys at 5v5, they would make for a much more balanced D core

Looking for a top offensive defenceman? Look no further than Thomas Chabot, who plays some of the biggest, toughest minutes in the NHL and currently projects as the best driver of offence among defencemen in the league! #GoSensGo pic.twitter.com/SLpAwWOK2O

You know what you're getting with Rielly: elite offence and terrible defence. #LeafsForever https://t.co/PkmYxHq46J pic.twitter.com/2zkY16i4U8

Forgot to add these to my last post but here are Toews and Pelech for comparison:

Devon Toews is an elite two-way defenceman? Always has been. #GoAvsGo https://t.co/B9sHHfSKyn pic.twitter.com/R6eTr6vvcd

Adam Pelech, signed 8x$5.75M by NYI, is one of the league's top shutdown defencemen who is more responsible than anyone else for the Isles' analytical glowup since the 2020 bubble. #Isles pic.twitter.com/ghSDuCqqbA
