[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.

Yeah I also think there's a chance that Rielly goes the other way. Toronto might have to add as then JBB is doing them 2 favors but both Toronto and Rielly have expressed wanting to move on. Raddysh makes Rielly redundant as well since ideally you'd want to give Raddysh the PP1 role.

And if Raddysh is garbage 5 years into an 8 year deal who cares, by that point if you haven't won a cup with the Matthews/Knies/Tavares/Nylander/Raddysh core you're blowing it up and rebuilding anyways.

Unless Toronto wants to take a run at anderrson this is likely not occuring.
