LMFAOOOO BUD. do u understand what advanced analytics are? Palmieri was just traded for a first and players a year ago. tHaT kyLe pAlMieRi? See? thats stupid. teams learn their lessons. Palmieri doesnt have the point production but he isnt playing bad. And theres a big difference between a year left and 2 lol. Shayne is now gonna go for likely a 2nd+prospect or a 1st. teams like the Habs are gonna jump on the opportunity to double dip at TDLs. You are obviously not involved in the advanced analytics community lol
Palmieri had value as a 28 yo rental, half a year removed from a pretty productive season. Are you aware that player's games tend to decline as they age? Hey, there might even be some analytics that support that??
I'm sure you can pull 1000 different analytics relative to teammates, and everything else to show how great Palmieri actually has been this year.
Long story short. He's 30, making $5M per with term, and has 3g in his last 42 regular season games. He could have 100% WAR, it's not going to make him worth his contract today, and definitely not 2 years from now.
Also, if he's still going to be such an effective player 2 years from now, why do the Isles ship him out?
