East Notes: Canadiens, DeBrusk, Stamkos

November 30, 2021 at 8:22 pm CDT | by Josh Erickson 13 Comments

The Montreal Canadiens organization is in a state of tumult, seeing their entire front office overhauled over the weekend and losing at home to Vancouver. The news cycle around the team isn’t stopping, however. In today’s edition of TSN’s Insider Trading, Darren Dreger says that Canadiens ownership has an interest in retaining defenseman Shea Weber in a long-term fit with the organization. Weber is currently on long-term injured reserve, and after dealing with injuries for much of the last few seasons, it’s unlikely that he’ll ever be fit to play again. While he hasn’t officially retired yet, if that move comes, it seems as though he’ll still have a place in the industry with Montreal. Pierre LeBrun also mentioned that there’s some uncertainty as to how new hire Jeff Gorton sees the fit of goalie Carey Price in the organization, and while it seems there’s nothing concrete, he notes that “there are teams around the league, some contenders, I can tell you already that are intrigued to find out where that all goes” if the Canadiens opted to rebuild.

More from the Eastern Conference:

  • News surrounding Boston Bruins forward Jake DeBrusk has evolved quickly over the past 24 hours, with news of his trade request breaking last night and rumors today that he was drawing significant trade interest. Now, on that same episode of Insider Trading, Dreger said that the Rangers, Canucks, Canadiens, Flames, and Coyotes have all expressed interest in the young forward. He also notes that while they haven’t necessarily called recently, the Blues have been historically involved in DeBrusk trade talks. Regardless, the situation seems favorable for a good return for the Bruins as a bidding war emerges.
  • Per the team, Tampa Bay Lightning forward Steven Stamkos is absent from Tuesday’s game against St. Louis, returning home from the road trip to be present for the birth of his second child. While the team is now without their star trio of Stamkos, Brayden Point and Nikita Kucherov, they still sit in a good position with a 12-5-3 record. Stamkos leads the team with 24 points in 20 games this season, an underrated story considering his trouble with injuries in recent seasons.

    I don’t see any way that the Bruins trade DeBrusk to the Canadiens unless the Habs overpay. The preference would likely be to trade him out west where he wouldn’t come back to haunt them as much

      I’m not worried about Jake DeBrusk haunting the B’s if someone overpays AND takes his contract.

      Honestly not sure what his rate would be. He’s had success in the past and is still young but hasn’t had recent success. I would hope the Bruins could get a big bodied defensemen, a prospect, or a mid-upper round draft pick (3rd?).

    Habs have to rebuild. Only guys I wouldn’t consider moving if I’m Gorton are Suzuki, Caufield and Primeau. Price, Chiarot, Petry, Gallagher etc. can all go. There will be a lot of contenders out looking at guys like that.

    Trade him for E Kane (SJ retains $3.5M) + a 3rd. Boston gives him 3 months to prove his worth, and if he does not agree to another trade, simply waive him and send him down.

      Boston isn’t trading for Evander Kane. They aren’t going to add that cancer to their locker room

      If anyone can help out E Kane, it’s the Bruins. I actually really like this idea, especially if SJS retains salary and adds draft pick compensation. E Kane’s style of play would go really well here if he can stay out of trouble.

      As a Bruins fan, I don’t want Evander Kane anywhere near the team. Sure, the Bruins can use his scoring, but this is a guy who has worn out his welcome everywhere he has been. His teammates have hated him at every stop. Get what you can for Debrusk, even if it is only some cap space. Then use that space to add a 2nd line center instead of a cancer like Kane

    Trade him for E Kane (SJ retains $3.5M) + a 3rd. Hopefully the Bruins’ leadership keeps him in line. Boston gives him 3 months to prove his worth, and if he does not agree to another trade, simply waive him and send him down. .

    How about Robert burtuzzo or Jake walman, a third rd pick, and a prospect(torpchenko)?

    I would think this would be a big opportunity for Boston to get a LD or Riley Smith from Vegas for DeBrusk. Vegas will need to cut salary and getting an NHLer back would be a win-win .

    I could see Nashville being a fit, If they would decide to move on from Fil I could see him flipped for DeBrusk, maybe a prospect like Trent Frederic and a 2-4th round pick?
