Description
Just like the title, simple and realistic.

DeBrusk has had a rough last 1.5 seasons and doesn't seem to be in the B's long-term plans. I understand they're in win-now mode and this move doesn't make them better today in a vacuum, but it does provide additional cap space and assets to go improve their roster with in a separate deal.

Rakell is in the last year of his deal for a re-building team who is likely not to contend at all this year. They should be unloading him and other pending FAs for prospects, picks or young NHL talent. I think the value is pretty fair but can be tweaked.

Gardiner to LTIR to create more space which seems likely since the team is recommending yet another back surgery.

Team still has plenty of cap space to make additional in season moves at any position of need or if injuries creep in.

A lot of people may disagree with me, but i think the decision has been made to see what happens with debrusk in Boston, and if the center situation doesn’t work out, then he’ll be a trade chip come deadline time.

Could see Canes doing something like this at TDL.

Ya that could make some sense. But of course, then there would be more variables. If debrusk stinks up the joint, he’s value goes down, but if he goes along the 25+ goal pace he was on prior, naturally it goes way up.

Oh absolutely, I was just about to put that in my last post but clicked submit too soon. Although, if he's lighting it up again do you think he would be moved? I would think he's only moved if he's not playing well or if he's just playing so so.
