I like that they've been patient on Katchouk. I don't think Raddysh has the skating to be an NHL player at this point with the league developing into a skating league. Maybe if he were to play with 2 other fast players and demonstrated an ability to "Jagr" people with his ass to protect the puck.
Even if they eventually trade him for an asset or a pick or a sweetener in the expansion draft to relieve some cap crunch, he's worth it. I think the roster is going to be wide open for him and others come next year after we inevitably lose some forwards.
