As the trade deadline looms, the fate of Jake DeBrusk with the Boston Bruins hangs in the balance. Talks of a contract extension have hit a snag, leaving fans wondering if he'll stay or go, per Boston Hockey Now's Jimmy Murphy.
Enter Allan Mitchell of The Athletic with an intriguing proposal: DeBrusk could return to his hometown team, the Edmonton Oilers. In exchange, the Bruins would acquire Brett Kulak and Warren Foegele.
Though DeBrusk's recent form has faltered, a fresh start in Edmonton alongside star Leon Draisaitl might reignite his game. Meanwhile, the Bruins would gain defensive depth and offensive potential.
