Raddysh picked up two assists in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Penguins.
EDGE Analysis
Raddysh has delivered points (one goal, three assists) in three consecutive games, and he has five points, including four helpers, in 10 games this season. He's an inconsistent producer, but he did put up 33 points in 82 games in 2023-24. Raddysh has potential, but this surge could easily become a slide in very short order. And his category coverage is weak (six blocks, two hits, 12 shots). Use him in daily if you need to fill a seat, but don't over-invest.

Raddysh scored a goal on two shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Devils.
EDGE Analysis
The Lightning have opted to dress seven defensemen over the last two games, and it's helped Raddysh to get in the lineup after being scratched for seven of the previous nine contests. He has a point in each of his last two outings, including a third-period goal Saturday. Raddysh is at three points, nine shots on net, six blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating over nine appearances. He often plays on the second power-play unit when in the lineup, but Raddysh may lose his spot once Brayden Point (lower body) returns.

Raddysh supplied an assist in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
Raddysh has had trouble getting in the lineup when the Lightning aren't dressing seven defensemen. The 28-year-old hasn't helped his cause -- he has just five blocked shots and a minus-2 rating to go with two assists and seven shots on net over eight appearances. He's played in just three of the Lightning's last 10 contests, and he could exit the lineup again once Brayden Point (lower body) is ready to return.

Raddysh logged an assist and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
Raddysh will get his looks since he continues to see power-play time despite a bottom-four role at even strength. The defenseman was a surprise last year when he produced six goals and 33 points in 82 regular-season appearances. It wouldn't be a shock to see him regress closer to the 25-point mark in 2024-25 unless he's able to secure more consistent ice time.

Raddysh (hip pointer) is healthy at the start of training camp Friday, according to Gabby Shirley of Bally Sports Florida.
EDGE Analysis
Raddysh missed the final two games in Tampa Bay's six-game series loss to Florida in the opening round of the 2024 playoffs. Raddysh played in all 82 regular-season contests last year, picking up six goals and 33 points, including a goal and six assists on the power play. Raddysh will likely be a third-pairing blueliner for the Lightning once again in 2024-25.

Raddysh was dealing with a hip pointer when the Bolts were eliminated from the postseason, Chris Krenn of the Lightning's official site reports Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Raddysh was out of the lineup for Tampa Bay's final two contests due to his hip injury. Unless the 28-year-old Toronto native requires surgery, he should be ready to play when training camp opens in the fall. Whether he is at camp with the Lightning remains to be seen, as Raddysh will hit the open market as an unrestricted free agent July 1.

Raddysh (undisclosed) is not in Monday's Game 5 lineup against Florida, Gabby Shirley of Bally Sports Florida reports.
EDGE Analysis
Raddysh has now missed two straight games but it's unclear what he's dealing with. The 28-year-old racked up 12 hits while averaging 17:06 of ice time through the first three games this series. Max Crozier is expected to suit up again Monday.

Raddysh (undisclosed) is listed as day-to-day, per Gabby Shirley of Bally Sports Florida.
EDGE Analysis
Raddysh didn't play Saturday in Game 4 after averaging 17:06 of ice time in the series' first three games. Emil Lilleberg and Max Crozier will likely fill out Tampa Bay's bottom pairing if Raddysh can't play Monday in Game 5.

Raddysh notched an assist, three shots on goal and three blocked shots in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Raddysh has a goal and six helpers over his last four contests, though a five-assist game versus the Flyers on March 9 pumped up his recent numbers. The 28-year-old is still in a top-four role for the Lightning, though his ice time has often fluctuated significantly. He's produced 28 points, 83 shots on net, 80 blocked shots, 62 hits and a minus-7 rating through 68 appearances. His role on the second power-play unit creates some appeal for Raddysh in deeper fantasy formats.

Raddysh had an NHL career-high five assists in a 7-0 win over the Flyers on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
It was a pinch-me game for Raddysh, who tied Mark Recchi (March 1, 2009) and Martin St. Louis (Nov. 18, 2010) for the most assists in a game by a Lightning player. The defender had one assist in his previous 11 games. What a night. Raddysh is on track to top 30 points, so his value is limited. But watch him for 2024-25.
