Raymond has a history with Leafs GM Dave Nonis. Despite Toronto’s precarious situation with the salary cap, the GM has vowed to do the necessary roster juggling to free up a spot if Raymond merits one. The 27-year-old left-winger became an unrestricted free agent for the first time and failed to land the multi-year deal he was looking for once the market opened on July 5. Raymond is a former 25-goal and 50-point player who will bring a lot of speed to the Maple Leafs roster, should he make it.
