Bailey to MTL for bagels. Every game, every fan gets one for free

Love to see him go if we could replace his points.

If we trade Bailey who would show Barzal to TO the puck for Trotz and Lou?

His points are easily replaceable. He's been on the top line his whole career. You and I, and everyone else on here can easily get 30 points a season.

Over the last few seasons he’s averaging somewhere around 60 points and that’s primarily playing right wing on the second line. He had 71 points a few seasons ago and had 56 two of the last three besides the shortened season which he had 43 in 68 games. Not bad at all in fact that’s pretty good production for a second line winger. With that said I would trade him if we could replace him in a heart beat

Then let's waive him and let Leo play on the top six.

I get the Bailey bashing, but he isn't that easily replaced. The pipe dream of a Bailey trade will get back a similar player. If Bailey is gone then you will see a lot more of Leo and Johnston and no Isles fan wants that.

I understand what you are both saying, but what does he bring that's a positive ?

He assists on goals.

Ugh, I hate defending Bailey. I was probably the biggest Bailey basher on this site years ago. The guy can be an infuriating player to watch. He has no killer instinct. No desire to shoot or hit. However he can dish the puck.

If any of us were in his skates, we'd dish the puck as well. None of us want to get hit either...but that's my point, he can easily be replaced .

Now you’re talking! Also move Barzal to the wing and have Johnston center the first line!
