Isles aren’t trading a first to dump Bailey. Especially not in this draft.

Guess they're stuck with him then, nobody's eating that contract for like a 3rd.

They can just buy him out, he only has 1 year left after this season and it’s a buyout friendly contract

He has no problem buying out players which is why he doesn’t like to give signing bonuses in contracts.

I’m almost positive Lou has a significant influence on the lineups and it’s not a surprise Bailey has been healthy scratched 2x . It has Lou written all over it

He got scratched against Mathew and Brady Tkachuck. I think that has more to do with protecting Barzal tbh.

It has nothing to do with protecting Barzal lol. No one is afraid of Johnston. The isles have Lee, Mayfield, Martin in the lineup anyways.

Bailey was scratched because he’s been terrible

They always mention adding a physical presence when they play a Tkachuk.

I legit think that they view Johnston as being way scarier than those guys. And he’s way more expendable than Lee or Mayfield.

Only guy U want fighting is Martin tho. Losing the other two hurts ur team.

Johnston didn’t fight the Tkachuks though so it doesn’t matter. I’m talking just the threat of knowing how to fight. There is 0 chance they scratched Bailey so Johnston can play against the Tkachuks.

I think you fail to realize the Isles are okay cap wise. They have ~3M in cap space right now, the 2M raise next year in the cap covers Barzal and Varly comes off the books. They only have to Walstrom to pay. They will have plenty of options in the offseason should they need more cap, buyout Bailey, trade Beau in his last year, bury Ross Johnston in the AHL etc.

yes, hes carrying water for the team he covers. The Bailey scratch had more to do with baileys play than inserting ross to face the tkachuks.
