Spezza fits in extremely nice for the Leafs. He can play 4C and slots into 3C quite nicely in case of injuries.

Agreed. Lack or depth or not he fits nicely. Where I’m not sure about is the team style of play vs his. He’s on the obvious downside of his career with the back issues flaring up, and he’s not as limber. On a team that wants to beat you with speed he’s a lone exception. He’s not slow and anything in that regard he makes it up in spades with his rangy hands, but something seems off with how he fits with the speedy makeup of the rest of the roster.
