Debrusk, Ullmark, Grz. I'd probably consider dishing Forbort as well because I think he'll just get hurt again so that doesn't help us for playoffs and he is UFA so might as well try to get something for him while you can. I expect a first round exit whether we make moves or not at the deadline so might as well try to retool a little bit. Ullmark could be traded in the offseason but I think the sooner the better. DeBrusk, Lindholm has a NMC so he would have to approve it, Gryz has to go but I think there is a better chance I grow hair on my head, Forbort should go. If the price was right I would let Freddy go. Might as well not have any balls left on the team. Unfortunately I see Lysell, Poitras or Lohrei getting plucked in a deal. If that part happens, we're doomed for the next decade.

I honestly have had enough of Sweeney and company and don’t want their fingerprints on the future .

I honestly have had enough of Sweeney and company and don’t want their fingerprints on the future . See, the part I dont underdtand here is after all the success Bruins have had under Sweeney as GM..Bruins have been a really good team practically every season under him and this season, Bruins were supposed to be a bubble team , maybe make playoffs maybe not..But here they are at the end of february, yes in a minor slump but STILL close to tops in the league..Sweeneys hands are tied because of lack of cap space and we all know why we're in the situation we are, trying to give Bruins the best opportunity last season..I honestly dont think DS is the problem, he's kept the Bruins a contender for years and no reason for him to be ley go..

Who on the Bruins would you trade ? Debrusk, although the return will below because of his status, Ullmark, Gryz. I entertain offers on Forbert. Immovable, IMO, Poitras, Lohrei, Swayman. Our D core of woefully anemic and for the love of God we need someone who can close out a game in the 3rd. This pattern of 3rd period weakness is currently unacceptable. We need another Zacha-like player. I'm ok trading Ully because I think Bus can handle it and learn. And I don't think we've seen Swayman get to the level he has potential for with enough minutes.

I might sell a few of my jerseys if that happens, honestly.

I’ll lead with what orym said, I think we get punted in round one either way. If Jake has a limited no trade clause we should be sniffing Calgary or Edmonton and see what shakes out, no doubt Debrusk waives to go there. I don’t think Grz or Forbort are tradeable but either way hopefully we don’t bring either back so in that light, Lohrei shouldn’t be considered in a deal.
I think our center position is shit so I wouldn’t trade Poitras either. I like Zacha and Coyle but they don’t come close to stacking up against opposing centers in the league.
Ullmark can go if we get a sound offer but if not just wait for the summer.
With all that said everyone has a price but it has to make sense.

KJC I cant find anywhere whether Jake even has a no trade clause..Here's what I got on Capfriendly. www.capfriendly.com/players/jake-debrusk#:~:text=CURRENT%20CONTRACT&text=Jake%20DeBrusk%20signed%20a%202,21%2C%202022.

Sorry, thought I read it somewhere recently. Just saw some speculation about Debrusk mentioned in an Adam Henrique trade. Nothing more than speculation though, also Henrique is no spring chicken.

It is amazing he doesn't have any clauses. Donny seems to hand them out like candy. Pasta, Marchy, Coyle, Zacha, Carlo, Forbort, Lindholm and Ullmark all have some form of a No movement clause. Some are 10 team, 12 team, 8 team....

For the sake of the Bruins more than anything else, I was really hoping Jake would have a good year and sign longterm in Boston..Now I believe he'll be a playoff rental BUT I believe it'll be for the Bruins..IF he plays well here on out and lets say he finishes season with 20 goals, 40+ points, maybe he signs a 1 or 2 yr deal at around the 4 mil he's getting now..Highly doubt it as I believe one of the Alberta teams will offer him more..THEN we will find out how badly he wants to stay a Boston Bruin.. OR he might be traded before I click "Post" here..Just a very tough one to predict!! Still, Sweeney realizes we need a player back or we're down a top 6 player who still compliments Pastrnak pretty well even if it dont always show up on score sheet..

Multiple first rounders is the asking price for Guentzel. He's also hurt haha. Good luck, Dubas!

Wonder if they could include another piece and get McCann out of Seattle. He is signed for 3-4 more yrs at 5m per. Good comparable with Debrusk.

I'd think they'd be sellers this year given their position in the standings. I like McCann. I think if you could turn Debrusk into a piece like that somehow, you'd have to do it.

I heard Friedman say today that the Bruins are kicking tires on Sean Walker, why I have no idea. 5’11” right shot D shouldn’t be on our wish list when the house is falling down around us.

He's an excellent skater, good gaps, transitions well. Fits Monty's system and would probably be the 2nd best righty behind Charlie.. doesn't shy away from contact though not a big hitter he would be #3 in hits thrown by Bruins D and his possession numbers would lead the team. He's tough and willing to stick up for himself and team mates

He's tough and willing to stick up for himself and team mates Nothing against the guy but our whole left side D is weak, combination of soft, small and green. (Lindholm, Grzelyk, Lohrei). I hear Walker plays left side as well. But more to the point I think prices are too high and we have so many holes. My wish list would be a top line center that can win a draw, toughest up front and on D and I mean someone who drops the gloves and is actually good at it. Also can we trade for a new coach while we’re at it.

Lot of rumours tonight that we’re close on Hanifan.
I’ve heard Poitras, Grzelyk and Merkulov going the other way but I don’t put much stock in that return.

ONLY if he's signed..Bruins are giving up 2 top tier prospects,,Hanifin is good but can we afford him, Lindholm AND McAvoy?? I wouldnt give them Poitras, no way..
