DeBrusk is a middle six player. One they were trying to dump not that long ago. Grz is decent but nothing special. The first rounder is a first rounder. Robertson is a top LW in the league. You don’t get elite players for spare parts. I stand by my initial comment. That offer is nowhere close. Starts with Lysell and then add. Peoples feelings can get hurt all they want. Facts are facts
Once again, for the third time…i agree it’s not enough. And i agree that it starts with lysell and goes up from there. The offer certainly isn’t an unreasonable starting point though.
There is no indication that the bruins ever seriously tried to move debrusk.
Since being inserted into the top six, in 40 games debrusk led the bruins in even strength scoring with 18 goals, and 27 points. Thats one fewer point than Robertson over the same stretch.
He’s a top six player.
Grzelcyk and mcavoy made up arguably the best pair in the NHL that had a reasonable sample size together, lets say 300 minute. All the fancy stats that i don’t really care about had them as the top pair with such a sample size, and 30 goals for with only 10 goals against is pretty dominant given the matchups.
He’s a top four d man.
Both players are on good contracts. It’s a sizable offer, though i agree it’s not enough. Certainly didn’t warrant the stupid, “delete this - insert dumb emoji.”
