Josh Bailey

[Scott]

Recalled.. lets chat deal..

[MSP4LYFE]

Normally, I'd leave this one alone, but since common sense is not all that common, I won't...

Bailey is not worth a H2H star, nor is Bailey + mediocre prospect/pick worth a H2H star...Be smart mother fuckers!

LOL.

Honestly, it wasn't a joke. I've watched both a ton and in my opinion, Bailey's the better player.

Better then Nazem Kadri

There really isn't even a comparison, everything Bailey does well Kadri does better, and he provides a gritty aspect to his game that Bailey doesn't. Their games as of today are close, and Kadri is only a rookie, meanwhile Bailey is a third year player.

Third year player cause the islanders are a shit team at developing their talent.

I completely disagree with that statement. All of their top prospects to date look they are going to be apart of a very good core moving forward: John Tavares, Travis Hamonic, Kyle Okposo, Calvin De Haan, and even Josh Bailey. You can disagree with their methods all you want, but since the arrival of new management there have been no notable busts or wasted top picks.

Charles Wang is a bit of a knob, but I completely disagree in the statement of their development of players being poor.

We'll agree to disagree.. I really do not want to start a debate. But I will say I've seen both play a lot and I like Bailey's game a lot better. Just as skilled, a good defensive player, doesn't have the edginess of Kadri but Bailey has a lot of untapped potential. We'll reopen this discussion in 4-5 years.

Historically they have been very poor in bringing up their talent. Things have changed when they hired Scott Gordon and Snow took over, However they have many high picks and I'm not sure throwing them straight into the NHL is best for their development. They currently even have concerns about Tavares struggling with development without a veteran presence on his line. They have isolated their young picks without much veteran talent around them, and thrown them into the fire and into that culture much too soon IMO. If you choose to disagree with that thats entirely up to you, I'm just saying its not something historically successful teams do. Wang is a bit crazy, I'm unsure if that team will even be in Long Island much longer.

Don't you get it Kareem? Scott agrees with us but needs to say otherwise on here to sell his player .
