Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Morgan Rielly has not been having a good season and his Pizzaville endorsement deal has Jay Rosehill in shambles.
Morgan Rielly is one of the most criticized players on the Toronto Maple Leafs this season and it is rare that the defenseman has caught a break.
Against the Florida Panthers on Tuesday, he had another bad game that came with a turnover on the game-winning goal.
Ultimately, Rielly is getting lit up on social media and it doesn't seem like fans will be taking their feet off of the gas, anytime soon.
Morgan Rielly destroyed for Pizzaville endorsement
In fact, things got worse last night during The Leafs Nation After Dark after former NHL enforcer Jay Rosehill was made aware of Rielly's new advertisement with Pizzaville.
In this ad, Rielly is holding a big Pizza plate and is talking about a "big giveaway." This is especially ironic as pizza is hockey slang for a turnover. Needless to say, not a good look.
"What does it say? Serve one up or turn one over or something? I thought it was a meme. The big giveaway, with a pizza on a platter! For people that don't know, serving up pizzas in the hockey world is turnover after turnover. Like, all that guy does is turn the puck over... and he's talking about the big giveaway with a pizza on a platter. Is he just giving up? He's not that f***ing stupid to not put two and two together. I thought it was a meme... I bet you he has to be furious. There's no way he knew what was going on until it was a on a billboard."
At this point, it feels like the season could not come to an end fast enough for the defenseman, who is clearly struggling out there.
The Toronto Maple Leafs are a team that needs its best players to dominate, and Rielly has been far from that this season.
Tonight, he has an opportunity to get back on track against the Tampa Bay Lightning, but that is going to take some focus.
If he continues to make turnovers and give up easy goals, the team is going to get annoyed very fast.
