On its own, this is a fair haul for a guy who was always overrated based on his name. But damn, what a kick in the teeth for Ottawa fans.
(Also, since this experience is where most of my soccer knowledge comes from, I'd just like to say that both teams need to do a beter job of running away from the ref when he tries to give them a card.)
I remember playing FIFA 94 in my room as a kid, using Canada in the World Cup and always playing against Qatar because they were only team I could beat.
Just wild to watch it play out for real... and in Canada no les.
I guess I should clarify: "Maintains level" means he plays like a good top-four offensive blueliner.
Nobody realistically thinks he's going to keep being a 70-point guy, but if he somehow did then now you've got a bargain. But 50 points is probably fine.
Is this guy I had never heard of a week ago actually Canada's greatest athlete? MY COLUMN:
Rivalry ended with UNITED STATES
Now QATAR is my sworn enemy
Thoughts on the Raddysh deal, one of the wilder risk/reward moves we've seen a team make…
- Acquisition cost: Dirt cheap
- AAV: High but reasonable if he maintains level
- Term: Terrible, guaranteed to become a problem… but teams seem to get out of these deals often.
Basically, I don't hate it.

Just saying: Tom Wilson would resolve this very quickly.
