Rielly scored a goal Tuesday in a 3-2 overtime win over Ottawa.
EDGE Analysis
Rielly has scored in each of the Leafs two postseason games (five shots). Tuesday, he drove to the left post, and William Nylander sauced a perfect pass right to his stick for a tap-in. Rielly's regular season was mid at best, with just 41 points in 82 games -- that's 17 fewer points in 10 more games than last season (58 points; 72 games). But he's really put his foot on the gas in the playoffs so far.

Rielly scored a goal on two shots and blocked two shots in Sunday's 6-2 win over the Senators in Game 1.
EDGE Analysis
Rielly answered a Ridly Greig goal early in the third period to restore a three-goal lead for the Maple Leafs. The 31-year-old Rielly went without a goal over the final 24 games of the regular season, so this one had to feel good to get him back on track. In that span, he still had 11 assists, 48 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating. Overall, the blueliner finished the regular season at 41 points, 131 blocks, 126 shots on net and a minus-8 rating while playing in all 82 games for the fourth time in his 12-year career.

Rielly logged three assists, two blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Hurricanes.
EDGE Analysis
Rielly has six helpers over his last five contests, though none of them have come on the power play. The Maple Leafs have adopted a five-forward first unit with the man advantage, leaving Rielly to play on the second unit regularly. Rielly is up to 41 points (14 on the power play), 124 shots on net, 126 blocked shots and a minus-11 rating through 80 appearances this season.

Rielly logged two assists and went plus-3 in Saturday's 5-0 win over the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
Rielly earned his first multi-point effort since his stunning four-point game in Boston on Feb. 25. Over the 17 contests in between, he was limited to five helpers. He set up both of William Nylander's tallies -- one on a rebound and one with a pass -- in this contest. Rielly is now at 37 points, 117 shots on net, 112 blocked shots and a minus-13 rating through 76 games overall. He's still at risk of falling short of the 40-point mark for the first time in a full-length season since 2016-17.

Rielly picked up an assist Saturday in a 3-1 win over Los Angeles.
EDGE Analysis
It came on a third-period power play. Rielly has really struggled offensive this season, and he has just 35 points (seven goals, 28 assists) in 73 games. Last season, Rielly delivered 58 points in 72 contests. He's a long way removed from his career mark, which was set in 2018-19. He scored 20 goals and 51 assists, and he fired 223 shots. You have to trot him out there when he's playing -- you likely invested too much to admit you were wrong back at the draft.

Rielly logged an assist and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 6-2 win over the Flames.
EDGE Analysis
Rielly has earned three helpers over eight outings in March so far. The defenseman also has a minus-5 rating, 11 shots on net and 12 blocked shots for the month. It's a bit of a slowdown on offense compared to February, but Rielly remains productive overall with 34 points, 108 shots on net, 95 blocks and a minus-18 rating through 67 appearances in a top-four role.

Rielly notched a power-play assist in Friday's 3-2 win over the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Rielly was fantastic in February, earning two goals and seven assists over eight contests. Four of those nine points came Tuesday versus the Bruins, but this has still been one of his most consistent stretches of the campaign. He's up to 31 points (12 on the power play), 97 shots on net, 83 blocked shots and a minus-13 rating across 59 appearances in a top-pairing role.

Rielly had a goal and three assists Tuesday in a 5-4 overtime victory over the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
It was a massive game for the struggling talent, who last put up a multi-point game on Nov. 8 (two assists). In fact, Rielly had just two multi-point games this season prior to Tuesday. Now, he has eight points (two goals, six assists) in his last seven contests. Half of those points have come with the man advantage. Rielly could be an excellent fantasy pickup for the final stretch of this season. He's had a rough year, but he hasn't lost his skill.

Rielly scored a goal in a 2-1 loss to the Canucks on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
He scored with six seconds left in the second period, beating a screened Kevin Lankinen from the right dot four seconds after a Leafs' power play expired. It was Rielly's first goal in 14 games, dating back to Jan. 5. Maybe it was the home cooking that inspired him -- he's a Vancouver boy. Whatever it was, it's great to see Rielly get the monkey off his back. His season has been a struggle -- he has just 26 points in 55 contests this season. But the goal pushed his current point streak to four games (one goal, three assists), so maybe this is a sign of good things to come.

Rielly posted a power-play assist, three shots on goal and two PIM in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Kraken.
EDGE Analysis
This was Rielly's third straight game with a power-play helper. Prior to February, he had gone 33 contests without a power-play point. The Maple Leafs are using a five-forward formation on the first unit, but Rielly's been able to make some noise with the second unit. The blueliner has 25 points (10 on the power play), 91 shots on net, 75 blocked shots and a minus-16 rating over 54 appearances.
