<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Gofnut999</b></div><div>I think Debrusk would be a great fit for EDM. Problem is EDM is not a great fit for Boston as far as trade goes.

They discussed Debrusk/Bjork for Nurse/Chiasson before the season started. Fell through. Great for you guys as Nurse had his best season and Debrusk his worst by far.

There are 4 scenarios for Debrusk.

Keep him hope he rebounds.

Trade for a d man. A 2nd pair type. Dunn and Graves are popular options. You don’t fit that criteria. Nurse and Broberg would be the only 2 of interest and you are not moving them. No, don’t want Jones, Bear, Lagesson, Samorukov etc. a healthy Klefbom would be of interest. A doubt if he will play again Klefbonm is not.

Trade for a forward of similar value, preferably a RW or C. Only guy you have that fits that scenario is Puju…no thanks. He’ll just pout having to play 3rd line with a crappy center.

Trade for futures. Prospects/picks. Your cupboard is almost as barren as ours is, little of interest to us there. Holloway is off the table. Maybe Lavoie and a 2nd piece. The Arvidsson trade really hurt a Debrusk for picks move.

I think the best move for Boston is wait til after the X draft and deal with Seattle, they should have an excess of D and little O unless side deals are made. Or a team that was hurt by Seattle that lost a FW and has deep D corp.</div></div>

I’ve poked fun at Bruins fans not accepting any trades for Debrusk, but to be fair they’re basically all justified. As you’ve said it really doesn’t look like we have the right pieces available to bring him in reasonably.
