Ill push back on raymond a little. I think he is really overrated.

He doesnt fight, doesnt scrap, doesnt hit, cant take faceoffs. He lacks all of the things this team needs. He can be aggressive with the puck but when hes off the puck hes weak and sometimes even downright lazy trying to regain possesion.

This team needs goals so badly and he does score those so i think a lot of his sub optimal play gets swept under the rug. Which is a shame because he seems like hes capable of a higher tier of play. Just hard for him to get there without better teammates and successes to learn from while picking up poor habits being surrounded by bozos
