Palms is having a bad year, but is also probably on a decline as well. There's too many unknowns to be throwing around money in a flat cap. I wouldn't gamble, but other people are probably more apt to take a chance. When a player has a career year in a contract season, the price gets jacked up(see Jeff Skinner). I don't see why it shouldn't go the other way when a player has a sh!t year in a contract season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guadana Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Palms didnt score enough this year, and, more important, he isnt shoot. At all. I dont know may be he has some injury, but he literally doesnt make any shot. May be one or two. Without his shot, he does not bring any special benefit in any situations.

No one is giving him five years...maybe someone offers three. If the Devils offer him three years around $5 AAV, he’ll be back...NJ is his first choice. If the Devils don’t want to go more than two, I’ll certainly understand why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can want whatever he wants, but in the current environment, he’s never getting a five-year offer. I’m not even sure he gets three. I wouldn’t go more than two myself.

titans04 Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 You guys are all overlooking the fact that Palmieri "knows how to win" as Matt Loughlin just pointed out on the NHL channel as one of the top reasons other GMs will be looking to acquire him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJDevils1214 Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 That they are even trying to re-sign Palms either means there was little interest in him or they think he is too much of a leader to let leave despite his playing issues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s kind of what I had in mind too, but again, I don’t know if you can judge him completely on this COVID shortened season. I don’t know if he’ll be looking to take a pay cut, even if ultimately that’s where he winds up, I think he’s going to free agency before that happens. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing I think that will be hurting the free agent market value is going to be how atrocious Hall is playing in Buffalo with a fellow superstar. I could absolutely be overestimating it but I could easily see GM’s pushing the bar low when comparing Hall’s body of work to another forward. I could also be 100% off base, but I’d like to think his no-show is going to cost a bunch of people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It probably will, or at the very least, won’t set a high bar for a guy who, minus one season, is a star but not a superstar. Palmieri, on the other hand, produced consistent results over 5 years at a very reasonable AAV, and Then dropped off during this weird season when nobody on the team is producing with any kind of consistency. I can see him having a valid argument that maybe you shouldn’t put that much weigh on this season. To some extent, Hall would have that same argument, except that he is paid much more and more should be expected of him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
