The Toronto Maple Leafs defenceman submitted a list of four teams to whom he'd be willing to move, Sportsnet confirmed on Wednesday.

All four teams are in the Western Conference, but the list could still expand, sources told Sportsnet.

Rielly, 32, has spent his entire career with the Maple Leafs since being selected fifth overall in the 2012 draft. He is entering Year 5 of an eight-year contract worth $7.5 million annually that also includes a no-trade clause, allowing the Vancouver native to have say in a potential move.

The left-shot blue-liner is coming off a down year for Toronto, registering just 11 goals and 25 assists in 78 games. Rielly's 36 points marked his lowest output in a full season since 2016-17.
