Didn't he just clear waivers?
Not sure what you're looking for but won't be much. Term and age along with eventual decline hinder his value.
Trade him with a decent add for Kessel and Capobianco?

Bailey who is making 5 million for 3 years who has 1 goal in 12 games this year? That Josh Bailey?
Can't see any playoff teams having much interest. When you're up against the cap there are a lot of better ways to spend 5 million

Bailey's last 2 seasons
20-21 - 54 games 8 goals 27 assists 35 points
19-20 - 68 games 14 goals 29 assists 43 ponts
Playoffs
19-20 - 22 games 2 goals 18 assist 20 points
20-21 - 19 games 5 goads 7 assist 13 points
He comes up with big points in the playoffs
The value of Josh Bailey?
It's really a bit hard to say. He's already scored one goal this season. He might score another. That and his five assists-- and counting -- would surely boost his value.
Which young speedy players would you have in mind?

Isles need a change of pace. We have too many slow skaters such as Lee, Nelson, Palmieri, Martin. We need an energy player. Someone who can play on the 2nd or 3rd line wing.

Would want someone younger than Kessel. I'm not too concerned about getting a Dman in a deal for Bailey. Once everyone is back from Covid and Salo who came up recently I think we are ok for now until maybe the offseason.

I think Conner Brown would be a better fit than Kessel. I haven't really haven't watch him play many games But looks like a player Trotz would like.

Was Josh Bailey waived? When? I must have missed that. (That’s not sarcasm but I Googled it quickly now and don’t see it.)

A good playoff performer but it's going to be hard to find a playoff team with 5mil cap space for this year and the next 2. Unless NYI retain a chuck of his contract and i assume NYI wouldn't do that since they are likely looking for cap space if they want to move Bailey
He was not. They are probably thinking of Justin Bailey (no relation) who was waived recently.

He was available for the expansion draft. I think the poster may have confused that as him on waivers. But he was not been placed on waivers.

As much as I would love to bury the Isles, it's too early to proclaim they are going to be sellers.

Bailey has covid and has been locked in a hotel room for a week. He's not going anywhere right now.

It's not too early. We have a below .500 record. We have sucked all year so far, minus maybe 2 games. We have Bailey, Lee, Johnston, Bellow, Pelech, Greene and Chara out due to Covid. We lost Pulock and Nelson out for 4 to 6 weeks best case. No one in the minors who is ready or can make a difference. It's time to sell

St Louis won the cup despite being tied for the fewest points in the league on January 1st that year. Which is right around when the Isles should be at a healthy roster, assuming no further longterm injuries.
Okay dipsh...erhm I mean """friend."""
Why don't we mention how he's averaged at least 50 points over an 82 game pace over the past five seasons?
But yeah, slow start this year, he's toast, right?
Best case scenario, probably looking at someone like DeBrusk or White. Players that have stagnated and need a change of scenery, but have shown some potential.
But other teams may also not want him unless it was swapping for another vet. Bailey will be 35 by the time his contract ends, chances are he isn't worth $5 mil in his final year.

Has there been a season where he didn’t start slow? This fan base has treated him like we signed the Antichrist and it’s comical. He’ll be here this season and next, getting his 1000 game milestone as an Islander.
