Since his back was broken, Raymond's been a shadow of his former self.

I just can't see him cracking the Leafs' lineup.

I'm looking at the Leafs and seeing a pretty good team. You're confusing them with the Flames.

Mason Raymond was mostly notable when watching on TV and Jim Hughson was calling the games.

un-thanks

We don't have the room because we have young players that are going to be fighting it out for his spot. He's redundant. At this stage, the Flames need to develop talent, not settle for mediocrity.

If he signs with the leafs, will they say his full name every time he touches the puck?

No thanks unless he somehow grew a heart over the summer. He's past developing, he's dead weight.

After the Kadri signing the Leafs are down to 2 million in cap space and still need to lock up RFA Cody Franson. I still don't see where Mason Raymond fits into the picture. Maybe Nonis is just doing him a solid and giving him a chance to show he's still relevant.

He's not dead weight. He's just merely adequate.

They made the playoffs last season and have gotten better.

Kessel, Lupul, Kadri, Phaneuf, Bernier, Reimer, JVR is supposed to bring them to the bottom 10 in the league?

No room, no sense, no thanks- with all due respect. We are looking for guys who are bigger and grittier. Slim Jim "glasshouse" Raymond doesn't fit the bill by a longshot.

With much less talent and horrific goaltending and coaching.

You really see a connection in talent with those bad Leaf teams and the one right now?
