Giroux for Debrusk and a 2nd is a good starting point that might work for both, although I would see a fairly good prospect being included from BOS.

Braun alone probably gets a 2nd, and with no clauses, and retention and a RD, theres probably a good market out there.

1st for Mayfield.

I think that is too much, For Boston anyway.

For Hagel, judging from reports of comparable offers that have already been turned down, it starts with a high prospect and a 1st, even then you would still have to add. CHI really doesn't want him going anywhere it seems like. But maybe they are just holding out until the last minute. No one knows whats going on with CHI. They're pretty vague and most of their "being transparent" seems like lip service.

Yeah I agree, but that's the starting point when you consider his contract, usage, experience, role, rd etc.

Interesting. He's got another 2 years? signed? Seems like a high price if they want more than a 1st and a high prospect and ++. The term is nice though as well as the cap hit

He is still pretty darn young, and he is a legit top 6 forward on a bottom 6 contract for two more years. Also his play style is very desirable for any team in the league. So, it's not exactly a rational exact value, but the fact that CHI has no reason to trade a guy like him, so teams will have to over pay to get him.

I do not disagree. I just do not see him enough and I hate to make judgement off stats. The few times I do see him, I like him. Not sure what Chicago is doing to be honest. I would not trade him but it's in the rumor mill.

For sure. I doubt they will trade him unless it is an offer they just cannot refuse.

i dont understand why hes even "available" 23 year old 20 goal scorer? with a good contract? why would you move him now?

He isn't "available". Teams have just been calling on him anyway. And since it came out that offers had been made, and everyone seems to want him, people just keep speculating on what a Hagel trade might look like. But I think, to CHI's actual front office, he is untouchable. BUT no one is ever really untouchable.

A first plus a good prospect for Rakell, or a second plus a better prospect; Lindholm gets a little more.

i mean ide hope so. thats the type of player you regret moving.

I think this is about right. I do think Rakell gets a bit less than this though. To me, Rakell is around the value of a '23 1st to a contender (assumed late pick). Lindholm is more like a 1st and a good prospect

Clifton, Vaakanainen, and a 2nd for Mayfield.

I would do Clifton and 2nd. Not Vaakanin that deal. I think Vaak can be at least a 5-6 on most teams. Not sure Mayfield is top 4.

2/3 of his even strength minutes this season have been top pair with Adam Pelech - positive GF/GA ratio and pretty much even in shots/chances when they're on the ice together - and if anyone should know about how the Islanders' system works with regards to shot/chance ratios, it's a Bruins fan. Not saying Mayfield is a slam dunk top pair guy, but he's definitely proven this season that he can be a reliable top 4/PK1 type defender. Throw in an extra year of control at $1.45M and you can see why Islanders fans are placing such a high value on him.

I like him, I do not mean to disparage him. I would like him more on a bottom pairing in Boston. It depends who he is paired with. but you see him more then me.

I honestly think he's the proverbial "hat on a hat" in Boston - you've already got McAvoy & Carlo at RD1/RD2, so he's more of a luxury at RD3 (similar to how he projects out on next year's Isles depth chart behind Ryan Pulock/Noah Dobson.) He definitely needs to be paired with a guy who can push the offense a little better - his time being paired with Andy Greene or Zdeno Chara has had some really ugly moments this season. I think he'd pair up well with Grzelcyk on the B's, if they swung a trade - I'd make the other pairs something like Forbort-McAvoy and Reilly-Carlo and roll 3 pairs instead of having that Forbort-Clifton pair it seems Cassidy tries to keep around 15 minutes a night
