The Boston Bruins dropped a really tough game last night to the Carolina Hurricanes.�

It was the B's first significant loss since they were brought down by the Vegas Golden Knights on December 14.�

There's been some losses in between but those have been much closer games.�

Last night's loss made it clear that while the Bruins are part of the contenders of the NHL, they still need to tweak their roster.�

One player who's been dangled around the league since his trade request is forward�Jake DeBrusk which the B's haven't found a bite for yet.�

So what's going on with the DeBrusk trade?

According to Bruins' insiders Jimmy Murphy and Kevin Paul Dupont, while DeBrusk's play has improved recently his trade value hasn't.�

Bruins' general manager Don Sweeney made it clear he wants a piece coming back of equal value but right now it's kind of hard considering DeBrusk is still struggling to prove he's a top 6 forward.�

The 25 year old has 10 points in 31 games so far this season and will be a restricted free agent after the season.�

Do you think DeBrusk will likely play out the season in Boston and be traded during the deadline?
