I would guess again, think Leafs are alright on the left side without adding Raymond.
JVR, Komarov, Michalek, Martin, Greening, Holland, Leivo, Rychel and possibly Laich.
If anything Leafs have to dump a couple of Michalek, Greening, Holland.

It actually is probably Anaheim that he's gonna sign with...we can't give out any big contracts while we're still hammering out a deal with Lindholm and Rakell.
Saves us from calling up Sgarbossa, at least.

Whichever team ends up signing him, they should be prepared to be very disappointed by his overrated speed and awful hockey sense. He can scoremin bunches but his boneheaded plays put him in the dog house game after game until he was deemed not good enough to be on the roster.

Yeah I won't be surprised at all if it's Anaheim. As long as he's being paid like a depth forward (1 year 850k or less), we do need to add some pieces. Hopefully he's not someone Bob would consider to be more than a 12-14 forward.
Player I had in the dog house for the longest stretch of my watching career.
Like 4 years straight I think.
May work in Anaheim because he needs to be thinking he's playing for something I think. Has skill but man does he fall down easy, and in today's NHL that's just bad.

This is painful to be an Anaheim fan right now if we are expecting Mason Raymond to be our answer at left wing.

1 year @ league minimum would be a good low-risk, medium-reward signing. The guy could very well score 15-20 goals again, he's just incredibly soft and gets bullied off the puck too easily/falls over after he crosses the blue line and button hooks.

Not the guy I'd want to rely upon as a regular top 6, but he does have the ability to play up and down the lineup and sub in for the top 6 during injuries. People underestimate how few players actually can play a top 6 role when they need to.
He's also far from a complete player, but has many high end attributes. The issue with him on the Flames is that the Flames were soft up front to begin with. So adding in Raymond was not helpful.

Raymond is good at everything until he gets into the offensive zone. 95% of the time he carries the puck in he'll fall down in the corner or half-boards. He never improved which is too bad because he could've been a really good player.
Had a good 30 or 40 games and then disappeared. Leafs didn't want him back then and don't want or need him back now
