Regrettably, the Leafs and O'Reilly did not progress as far into the playoffs as they had hoped. However, the shortfall was not due to a lack of effort, particularly from O'Reilly, who was arguably the best Leafs forward during the playoffs.
O'Reilly is a pending unrestricted free agent (UFA) this summer but has expressed his desire to return to Leafs Nation. During an appearance on TSN's OverDrive, O'Reilly shared his experience of being a Leaf.
O'Reilly's tenure in Toronto has undoubtedly left a lasting impression. Fans are hopeful that the new General Manager, Brad Treliving, can negotiate O'Reilly's return. However, even if that doesn't transpire, the time watching O'Reilly as a Maple Leaf was certainly memorable.
