Rumor: All about Alex DeBrincat -possible trade

[Zetterberg4Captain]

I'd love both Debrincat and Kane

About time we have since dynamic creative goal-scoring forwards again..

I deserve it

 

[JediOrderPizza]

When most say sens fans are talking shit, it's mostly one or two people.

It's like if people met MBH first and assumed all wings fans are like that.

Me too.

DeBrincat backup plan. He's practically the same guy.

 

[KJoe88]

Lol I was joking about it earlier in the thread, but there’s no way we sign both ADB and then get Kane lol

It would be hilarious and we’d for sure cup contenders imo

Islanders vs. Red Wings: The Battle for Alex DeBrincat - The Hockey Writers Latest News, Analysis & More

Ottawa Senators forward Alex DeBrincat is one of that top trade targets remaining. Who wins the battle for him, the Islanders or Red Wings?

thehockeywriters.com

I think there are enough nonsensical details that I question the article altogether, but I agree with the overall premise that Detroit could put together a better offer than New York, assuming that Ottawa is set on signing Tarasenko and thus needs picks/prospects/ELC players rather than anybody established with a higher salary.

Ottawa could use a left side dman is the worst take out of a plethora in that article. Tough read.

Took this from the Sens board.
Talks about the pressure on the Sens to get a deal done.

There are a ton of bad takes in that article.

He makes me a little more alright with trading Berggren for DeBrincat

future top line W

 

[datsyukfan]

Wonder how reliable this is

 

[Macoun]

future top line W

RH winger version of Datsyuk. Mark my Words. I envision a line of Mazur-Kasper-Buchelnikov in the future

 

[Axel Sandy Pelikan]

Wonder how reliable this is

I believe T Fos one hell of a lot more than yahoo sports or Detroit sports nation.

 

[stillwater]

A lot of salient points in that article. It makes more sense than the other opinionated media reports and checks off a lot of boxes.

 

[Axel Sandy Pelikan]

He makes me a little more alright with trading Berggren for DeBrincat

See what makes me alright dealing Berggren for Debrincat is that Cat currently is what we hope and pray Berggren will be. I look at it as whatever other assets go with are the equivalent exchange to alchemically change Berggren into Debrincat

 

[NickH8]

I had a dream that the trade happened. It was just Berggren and a 2nd for DeBrincat. Take of that what you will.

 

[Ricelund]

I don't buy that Foster knows contract specifics.

DeBrincat's also back on Ottawa's roster on their site.

 

[stillwater]

He doesn't have to know the exact contract specifics to know that the DBC camp likely wants 8 years at 8.5M to 9M, like Timo Meier. If his agent didn't ask for that, he shouldn't be an agent.

Or, that Yzerman would be much more comfortable at 5 years. Or, that Yzerman is a tough contract negotiator.

They get it done at 6-7 years at 8.5M, just under the Dylan Larkin salary cap hit ... soon to be surpassed by the Moritz Seider cap hit.

 

[Retire91]

I would pass on this trade if it was possible to pass on something that did not exist in the first place

 

[izlez]

I’ll give Terry foster credit in that he probably has real sources. DeBrincat wanting nearly double what Yzerman is offering does not sound encouraging in this thing getting wrapped up soon, if at all

 

[Steve Yzerlland]

Can he ask to become a UFA like Zadina did or sign a one year deal and just sign with Detroit next summer? I would wait a season to get him for free next year and give up zero assets.

 

[GoBoltz56]

DeBrincat backup plan. He's practically the same guy.

I thought there were rumblings that he was being loaned out to another KHL team? Would honestly suck if he is still with SKA again this year with no playing time or stuck in the VHL.

 

[redwings8831]

ok so idk if this is the topic to ask this. What IF

this whole thing is dragging because SY is trying to get ADB and then sign Kane and have an all American line?

34 year old Kane coming off hip surgery and potentially missing up to the first half of the season? No thanks.

 

[Retire91]

Can he ask to become a UFA like Zadina did or sign a one year deal and just sign with Detroit next summer? I would wait a season to get him for free next year and give up zero assets.

Career wise why would he do that? Man the mental gymnastics you guys are doing to make this nothing burger into a meal.

I mean, what is Dylan Larkin if not Toews with hands
