<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Garak</b></div><div>They actually are very comparable for multiple reasons. They are forwards with a history of high end play at the NHL level, are about the same age, declining, at a similar point in their career, are overpaid, both struggled to play a full season in recent years, and more importantly, the Isles are going to need the cap space. If the Isles aren't served well keeping him around at that cap hit, why would a bunch of cap strapped teams trade valuable assets for one year of a 34 year old with a $5M cap hit based on one decent season? When you look at his body of work in recent years, i'd bet on him dropping off significantly next year, especially joining a new team. Raddysh scored 20 goals last year, is 25 years old, PK's, is on a less than league minimum contract, and no one was willing to pay anything significant for him. He also played like garbage this year, albeit, on a severely depleted Blackhawks roster, but that would've been a much safer bet, yet no one made it.

Again, if the Isles can get something for him, good for them. But, there is a clear reason why Snowhawk used Bailey as a comp. I would bet that the Isles will have to pay to move him if they decide they need to move his contract, and if they do get something for him, it will be very minimal and might even require retention, which is something NYI would probably like to avoid.</div></div>

You have to combine Bailey's last two seasons together to get to as many goals as Palmieri already has this season. Comparing the two is like apples and socket wrenches. Arizona got a 6th for Zucker at the deadline and has half as many goals as Palmieri and a higher cap hit. Like I said, they're not going to get a haul for Palms if they move him, but they absolutely will not need to pay someone to take him.
