I think having Tyler Wotherspoon, Brett Kulak, Ryan Culkin, Patrick Sieloff, Brandon Hickey, Rushan Rafikov, John Gilmour, and Keegan Kanzig hurt our chances of getting Reilly. We have a lot of left-handed D prospects and while I know people like to believe we just drafted 8+ busts, you have to imagine management wants these guys to succeed and isn't going to just throw them under the bus by offering a guy like Reilly playing time he hasn't earned..
THe Morrison signing might've hurt our chances at Russo, but at the same time they're such different players. One is a big two-way defenseman, kind of reminds me of Seabrook, the other other seems to be a PP specialist like Wisniewsky.
