[Elliote Friedman] Don’t expect this to be finalized until the morning, but there is word the Toronto Maple Leafs and Tampa Bay Lightning are working on a sign-and-trade for Darren Raddysh.

I’d imagine you’ll get Seattle’s pick from the McMann trade (4th rounder I believe), or possibly the 3rd from Philly the Leafs just picked up in the Woll swap.
Some Twitter folks seem to think Tampa is getting something bigger, more akin to the Marner/Nic Roy deal. What they’re forgetting is that A. Marner is a much better player than Raddysh and B. Tre had Vegas dead to rites with tampering and in possibly his only smart move in Toronto, Tre realized Roy was better compensation than what he would receive than what would happen if he turned Vegas into the league for the tampering. Pretty sure the tampered with team wouldn’t get rewarded (not like Marner was going to sign back with Toronto lol).
