The money is probably gonna be shocking and it's got a high probability of not being worth it, but the gamble does make sense for the Leafs. They want that quick turnaround, need help on D (especially a PP guy) and have the cap space.

How does it make sense for any team? This is divisive on the Tampa board because although he massive produced, he's also nearly in the perfect situation with Moser, McDonagh and Cernak carrying the defensive load while he is able to set up/get set up by the best playmaking winger in the league. If there's any sort of system adjustment he needs to make moving to a new team he's instantly going to drop 20+ points compared to last year.

From what I read they want a mobile, puck moving defenseman, Raddysh is not that, he is a bomb from the point, that's mostly it.
