Proposal: Boston trade chips

If the Bruins are out of a playoff spot by the trade deadline, they have some interesting players that could be involved in a trade.
1. Marchand: (UFA) I would be surprised if they did trade him only if he plans to resign in Boston in the summer. Likely would receive a 1st, 2nd and a prospect.
2. Coyle: A good option for 2nd or third line center. Likely worth a 2nd and 4th round pick.
3. Frederic: (UFA) A coveted player who is young, tough and can put the puck in the net. I think Boston should resign him but if the price is too high you sell. He could easily get a late first and a prospect.
4. Carlo: Big right handed defenseman which many teams could use in a playoff run. Manageable contract. Likely a 1st or 2nd round pick plus.
5. Brazeau: (UFA) Big forward who is coming into his own. Either resign or trade. 2nd or 3rd round pick
5. Korpisalo: Bruins goaltending staff have helped him find his groove again. DiPeitro is waiting in the wings so Bruins can afford to move him. 3rd round pick maybe.

Yes he kills penalties, yes he plays to his size though Bruins fans often wish he played angrier and was less respectful, he is big and he finishes his checks, he will finish with over 200 hits, skating is very good and he’s super athletic. Up until this year he was a very strong 5on5 producer.

Downside is he’s not Tom Wilson. He doesn’t hit to hurt, and he can’t beat up heavyweights though he is willing to try. Energy level is inconsistent too, but some of that could be the Bruins lack of talent this year and the shuffling of line mates. He looks good with Coyle, he looks good with Poitras, he gets criticized when he centers Brazeau and Wahlstrom.
