The Bruins should have traded him when I made this thread in November. He has been ass this season. I would have said he'd get a 1st for sure back then. Now I'd be happy with a 2nd and like a 4th.

I like Frederic but I don't think he's worth a 1st. With that said, if there's a bidding war then maybe he can fetch one. I sure hope so.
Wouldn't be surprised if he does get one.

If the team acquiring him gets him signed he probably does, or it could be like a Goodrow trade where Boston ships out a later pick along with Frederic for a 1st

After discussing Trent Frederic with Boston fans I can't really say he is a guy the Oilers should go after. I'd offer a 3rd and that's it.

No deal? Someone else can trade more for him.

Don't spend assets on a guy who has to be motivated by others to skate hard.

Wonder if the Bruins could pry a guy like Chibrikov out of the Jets. He's hurt for the rest of the year, but he's a young NHL ready most likely middle six guy.

In a vacuum Frederic would be an okay add for a deadline, but the Oilers need a proven scorer more than another physical winger with questionable upside. I don't really see where he fits.
 
The lineup has him playing wing. How is he at the center position?

Rangers need a 3C.

We play him at 3c on occasion and he looks good there.

As for value, what a fan offers for him here on HFBoards and what a GM offers are usually never the same. GMs are pursuing Frederick for size, toughness, edge, and depth scoring. GMs will pay for that if they see a need for it on their team. Whether or not THAT is Frederick and he is worth what GMs will bid war over him with is the real debate. Sometimes what peoples desire for something to be blinds them to the reality of what that thing really is.

Either the B's will resign him for a decent price or he will ask too much and they will ship him for a respectable package of futures back(Pick, good prospect or high pick/lower pick).
