And so ends the Bailey/Baptiste saga.

Because Bailey isn’t very good IMO. Botts thinks Leier is a better player and I don’t blame him.Coming back early on the tail of this news.

Can anyone explain the logic?
I wonder if it was flipping a RW for a LW?
Is Nyalnder being called up after the AS break? Taylor taking his LW spot.
