Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Morgan Rielly had another bad game on Wednesday and some fans are making it clear that he needs a change of scenery.
Morgan Rielly was a -2 in a 3-1 loss against the Minnesota Wild on Wednesday night, making him a -18 on the entire season.
Morgan Rielly continues to disappoint Toronto Maple Leafs fans
After the game, Rielly was asked about his struggles and whether or not there is something deeper going on.
The alternate captain made the claim that things are fine, although he is battling to keep up right now. He even said that he has put a lot of pressure on himself.
«Trying to keep everything in check. I feel good despite numbers and whatnot. So it's a battle right now, just trying to compete and play the best I can we all put a lot of pressure on ourselves to perform and I'm no different."
Unfortunately for Rielly, these comments were not enough to satiate the fans, who are livid with his play.
"He's playing with no desire to win I've said it before package him with a prospect and a draft pick you will get something great in return and Morgan will be happy with a new start"
"I hope they trade his a*s to Vancouver for Miller and 5th rounder."
A trade involving Rielly seems extremely unlikely right now especially when you consider just how much money he makes.
That said, something has to give and the Maple Leafs cannot sit idly by as Rielly continues to play the worst hockey of his career.
