Literally on what planet is a team in Pittsburgh's situation trading one of their top prospects in Brunicke for a rental Kane?

My feelings exactly from Detroits point of view.

This is downright highway robbery for the Wings. 2 prospects not even in their top-15 (according to Wheeler) and Kane for Brunicke alone is a criminal.

Brunicke nearly made the Penguins out of camp this year, he was their last cut going into the season.

Not that I expect to be convinced but what exactly is the OP's rationale for this one?

A mid 2nd defensemen making the NHL 4 months after the draft sounds more like shit player development decisions than a testament to his ability...

Sounds like someone who didn't watch Brunicke in training camp whatsoever.

Sounds like somebody watching a bad prospect pool who thinks a guy being one of their better prospects makes him a good overall prospect.

Would love to see an all-time list of all the 18 year old non Top 10 D-Men who stepped in the NHL and didn't get annihilated.

I don't even know what you're blabbing on about at this point. Bruncike was excellent for the Penguins in camp and it has made pretty much every Penguins fan really excited about him.

Zero Penguins fans want to trade Brunicke for a rental Patrick Kane and 2 no-name prospects.

Again, you're welcome to list the dozens of 18 year old Non Top 10 defensemen who have stepped into the NHL and impressed.
