We gave up a first rounder and a 4th rounder for Bertuzzi last year.
I would think the comp is comparable, even though I think JDB is a better player.

Murphy: DeBrusk Looks Like A Playoff Rental But For Who?
With the NHL Trade Deadline less than two weeks away, many are starting to wonder if Boston Bruins winger Jake DeBrusk is about to become a playoff rental. But more importantly, they’re asking for who? “Does he wind up back west as a playoff rental for a contender out there – we’ve all heard the […]bostonhockeynow.com
“Here’s what I do know: If the Bruins don’t sign him – and, I don’t know if they will or won’t, I’m sure they value him – I guarantee an Alberta team will offer him a major contract,” NHL analyst Pierre McGuire said on a recent Eye Test Podcast. “I guarantee you, whether it’s Edmonton or Calgary, he’s going to be taken care of in the province of Alberta. That’s if Boston doesn’t sign him, and that’s not a scare tactic; it’s reality. I mean, there’s a need for that type of player.”
Zboril isn’t totally gone is he still in ProvidenceHmm if he goes the 2015 curse ends? He's the last of the big 3![]()
Zboril isn’t totally gone is he still in Providence
Yeah probably rightI think with how many people get called up before they even consider Z, he's "basically" gone![]()

Zacha and Wotherspoon were both drafted in 2015, just saying!JFK isn’t even playing these days, he’s an assistant coach for a women’s team in Sweden. He never was right after that concussion in Providence.
He should have stayed at BU one more year. Glad to see he's still in hockey in some capacityJFK isn’t even playing these days, he’s an assistant coach for a women’s team in Sweden. He never was right after that concussion in Providence.
Zacha has turned out to be a much better player than I thought he would. The 2015 draft had a consensus top 13 in the scouting services community, but Zacha and Crouse were the 2 players within that top 13 that I didn't like. NJ taking Zacha over Barzal was still a mistake, although not remotely as close to the mistake of picking DeBrusk and Senyshyn over Barzal and Connor, but he has turned into a quality player. IIRC, there were some concerns over him adapting to the ice in North America and he didn't exactly light it up in Sarnia.Zacha and Wotherspoon were both drafted in 2015, just saying!
And Morgan Geekie was also their teammate.Wotherspoon played with Carlo in Tri-City and I wonder how much of a say the Western League scouts had in the team acquiring him years later.
Bertuzzi was billed as being kind of a dick on the ice. That fetches a bit of a premium with rentals. Oddly enough, I think that's still the type of forward this roster needs.We gave up a first rounder and a 4th rounder for Bertuzzi last year.
