Forbort has an NTC, i’d imagine Zona is on his list and nobody is going to the dumpster fire willingly. Boston does not do this anyway.

I kinda like it. I'd prefer getting a 1st for Pavelski, but DeBrusk and Frederic and a second isn't half bad either.

ARI trade has some good value in there too.

Hence why I said Arizona flips him to a contender or somewhere he’d wanna play. It’s for cap purposes

For starters, for that package Zona includes Crouse. If not you can replace Forbort with Moore and Wagner.

2nd. Reilly would be a better option than Forbort. No NTC and keep the penalty killer which was why Forbort was brought in for in the first place. A left side entirely of offense first, defense iffy types is bad construction.

I full agree with trying Reilly instead. Forbort is a Bruin and doing his job nicely. He's a perfect 3rd pair PK, beat up on someone if stupid stuff happens. Not happy about giving up Lysell either. To keep Lysell out of the mix, Reilly becomes Grze, you add Senyshyn (perfect for ARZ, and would likely thrive) and they add Crouse.

Forbore has had more than a few chances to fight and hasn’t he’s definitely not a fighter
