Bruins don’t need room to sign hall or rask. Offer something that makes the team better or move along.

I think the Oilers sign Schwartz or Tatar

Sorry, the trade values are meant to be more approximate than anything. Mainly just wondering what people would think of DeBrusk and co. as targets.

If the oilers are willing to give up something that makes the bruins better, sure. Got anything like that?

What are they looking for?

Probably a winger better than debrusk. And i don’t mean a winger that performed better than debrusk last year, a winger that has a likelihood of being better than debrusk next year.


In other words, its not a fit.

I think Hyman

Holloway has the best long term potential.

I would say killorn or Rakell would be the best trade options for right now but Debrusk may be the best long term.

Saad then Hoffman then Tatar then Hyman then Coleman

Overall I would say Saad because he's a UFA and won't cost anything assets, trade for Killorn if Tampa gives him at a discount beyond cap, if not maybe Rakell because hes younger and has a better cap hit, could resign and after a few more productive years, Debrusk could develop into the best player and play for awhile also team controlled RFA. Holloway would be the best overall though, draft pick, cheap no assets to acquire, Alberta boy(like Debrusk).

I mean not sure any team would be a good fit then, who's going to willingly downgrade?

If I was the Pens GM, I would even take Neal and his contract back. I would try and get a young guy close to NHL ready too.

I would try and do Zucker and DeSmith, a very cheap goalie option, who has proved he’s a legit NHL backup-1B goalie, for J.Neal and R.Lavoie.

Tatar

Teams that aren’t competitors that want futures….its pretty commonplace.

You think Tuch can be had for a 3rd? Is Leon available for a NJD 2nd? Asking for a friend

What about something based off caleb jones.

Not even close.

It would take a ridiculous number of injuries for him to play for boston. Ahl depth isn’t what we’re talking about here. Something that makes the team better is.

Pens wouldn’t pay to get rid of Zucker. Zucker isn’t a cap dump. He is still a solid top 6 option. He paced 20+ goals and 20+ assists if he played 82 games last year. And that was a down year because of multiple reasons. He started on Malkin’s line and Malkin came into the year out of shape and brought everyone he played with down, then Zucker got hurt. When Zucker came back, he was out with McCann and Kappy and played well, then got out with Carter and McCann after the Carter trade and Kappy getting hurt and was really good. Even when he was snake bit and wasn’t getting points, the chances and driving of offense was there. He just had a snake bitten spell. So he is still a solid top 6 so the pens aren’t going to pay to get rid of him.

No, not really. Debrusk has had one good season, your not getting anything better without giving up significantly more.



Huge exaggeration, he could easily play himself into Boston's D corps by the end of training camp, he's already better then Lauzon and Zboril
