He has no spot on the team currently, and given he has one more year on his contract I don't want him taking a spot next year from Ferraro, Sheahan or Callahan who will bring a lot more to the table and reinforce the bottom 6.I don't know, I may be desperate enough to take another chance on him and get rid of Quincey in the same breath.
Brunner plays to about 4'8'', is weak, not an overly strong skater, doesn't backcheck, makes Hudler look like Stamkos. Can't justify him playing hard minutes in the bottom 6 and I wouldn't want him taking a spot from Nyquist or Tatar in the top 6. Both Goose and Sauce work way too hard for Brunner to come in and take IT from them.
Brunner belongs in Europe, and I bet that's where he will end up after his contract is up next year.
I can see where people are coming from though, regarding a Quincey-Brunner swap.
