ESPN Host Proposes Insane Blockbuster Trade Oilers Should Make With Bruins
ESPN host John Buccigross has set the hockey world abuzz with his audacious trade proposal involving the Edmonton Oilers and the Boston Bruins. In this bold hypothetical scenario, Buccigross suggests that the Oilers should trade their superstar Leon Draisaitl and Warren Foegele to the Bruins in exchange for Linus Ullmark, Jake DeBrusk, prospect Matthew Poitras, Fabian Lysell, and a 2026 1st-round draft pick.Ryan, would you trade Draisaitl and Foegele for...last years Vezina winner, DeBrusk, Poitras, Lysell and a 2026 1st rounder? The Central Registry would approved this proposed trade for cap and roster implications. https://t.co/zEIDcAriuZ— BucciOT.Com (@Buccigross) November 3, 2023 This proposed blockbuster trade is not for the faint of heart, as it involves major assets on both sides. For the Bruins, it offers a chance to fill the void left by the retirements of Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci with the addition of Draisaitl, an elite center in the NHL. This is the @Buccigross trade idea we mentioned: https://t.co/VtkQP49OC0— The Skate Pod (@TheSkatePod) November 6, 2023 On the other hand, the Oilers would address their perennial goaltending concerns with Ullmark while also acquiring promising young talent and a future first-round pick. While the practicality of such a trade remains uncertain, Buccigross's bold suggestion highlights the dynamic nature of NHL trade discussions and the willingness of teams to explore significant moves to bolster their rosters, even though this one might be a little absurd.
