Unveiling the NHL’s Most Shocking Breakout Stars of 2025-26 – Prepare to Be Amazed!
Darren Raddysh, RHD, Tampa Bay Lightning
It’s rare that you see a player go from healthy scratch to elite-level producer, yet that’s exactly what Raddysh has accomplished this season.
Raddysh, an undrafted No. 4/5 defender with a couple of 30-point seasons on his resume, was a healthy scratch at times in October. However, he was forced into higher-leverage minutes when injuries to Hedman, McDonagh and Cernak struck. Improbably, Raddysh didn’t just tread water; he’s hit a level nobody could have seen coming.
