I'm flattered you waited for my response. Typically, the Canes tend to avoid older players with hip injuries, so I doubt it's particularly realistic. However, from a value standpoint, that's all you want for Brad Marchand? I think the organization would throw several hissy fits, but I'd do this in a heartbeat.

Canes take that and send a thank you letter

VGK ain’t doing that….

Rumor has it that Jake DeBrusk wakes up in a cold sweat each time an ACGM is posted where he is being sent to play under Cassidy again.

I based the value off the Tarasenko and Orielly trades but I would also definitely ask for more but I see this as a jumping off point

If they Stephenson as too big an investment for a long term deal, I'd say moving him makes the most sense. Especially if the LTIR cap maneuvering isn't possible

Bad comparables, those are deadline deals for rentals. Marchand has another year of term

1. The Bruins aren’t trading Marchand

2. The concept of trading DeBrusk to a Cassidy coached team is probably the least likely player coach scenario I can see in this league

Stephenson is only an elite player when he’s next to stone. They both know it, and he was an original McPhee pick in Washington. He’ll get a hefty raise, but he’s probably the first guy resigned this season
