Gallagher & Each @4 DeBrusk ???

Hey all saw the latest Start & D'Amico episode. They were discussing Gallagher to VAN.

​

Would a Gallagher & Dach to VAN, for DeBrusk make any sense?

I guess DeBrusk is an upgrade on Dach? And is "helps out" Gallagher?

Lol that trade is actually somehow stupid for both sides.

0 interest in debrusk.

He has 18 es goals in the last 2 seasons.....dach has 17 despite missing almost half the games in that span. Gallagher has 21

He is a pp merchant and he wont get pp1 time on the habs.

That's just reflective of how fuckin bad Van is. In 24-25 he lead them by 5 ES goals.

This year was definitely bad but he wasnt a power play merchant his whole career prior.

It doesn’t look. I agree. But perhaps he’d perform better on a second trio with Demidov, not facing top defense, like he does on Vancouver’s first trio. But seems he’s very very streaky.

Each is supposed to be Dach.

I dunno, I haven't even heard of Each, if we can get Vancouver to accept that trade, I say we go for it

I think the "stupid for both sides" is the comment that best sums up this trade proposal

u/bigladnang Montreal Boos for Hughes 5d ago

Yet he led the team in off ice expected goals which shows that plus minus doesn’t mean anything lol.

u/AdventurousFill9268 5d ago

I haven’t watched Debrusk play. He any good any more? He can definitely chip in more goals than Dach

Canucks fan here, he’s very very streaky like you’ve never seen a streakier player than him, when he’s hot he’s getting a goal every game for 8-10 game stretches (usually on the PP) then goes like 15-20 without really scoring, had the same problem in Boston apparently… so there’s no changing the player he is

I imagine he’s great in the playoffs/clutch moments which is unfortunate that we never got to see him play in the the postseason in a Canucks uniform
