Reilly is worth his money and will help the team. With a $1,257,227 Value, he will be the 7th-best Islanders defenseman in terms of Value and, while Adam Pelech is on LTIR, even the 6th-best.

Perhaps he is a more reliable option than Samuel Bolduc, but he is 30-year-old and the team will fill the cap space with 8 blueliners when Pelech is back.
