Rielly started the season reasonably well with 23 points (five goals, 18 assists) in his first 29 games, but he has just six goals and seven assists in 46 games since Dec. 13. Rielly&#8217;s contract runs through 2029-30, but there&#8217;s plenty of speculation in Toronto that the last three games of the season will be his last in blue and white. A change of scenery might improve his fantasy value, but it&#8217;s hard to imagine he&#8217;ll skate with a player much better than Auston Matthews.<\/p>\n<p>        More News<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Rielly scored a goal Thursday in a 5-3 loss to the Islanders.
