O'Reilly is in the final year of a seven-year deal that carries a $7.5 million cap hit. In the trade, the Blues retained 50 percent of O'Reilly's contract and the Wild retained 25 percent, so the Maple Leafs get him at a $1.875M cap hit. O'Reilly's offensive game has struggled this season, scoring just 12 goals with seven assists (19 points) in 40 games. He brings an excellent two-way game and the ability to play centre in a shutdown role or the wing in an offensive role. His fantasy stock could rise if he ends up on the wing with John Tavares and Mitch Marner.

The 27-year-old has been a wall for Nashville all season, as shown by his .919 SV%, 2.73 GAA and 20-14-5 record.
