If you are Conroy you have to weigh all this out, but no way Debrusk takes a top prospects spot.
If Debrusk is wanting Calgary as his top destination, what is his contract ask? Will there be a discount? What will his contract look like vs resigning Sharangovich, Kuzmenko, Mangiapane?
It makes a ton of sense for me to sign a guy like Joshua who is asking for around $3.5 and sign Debrusk who wants to be here and ship out 2 guys that have short term deals for assets. It's a good way to add assets and manage your future cap and Debrusk and Joshua likely are cheaper to sign and are younger than guys like Mangiapane and Coleman, probably make less than their current contracts too.
I personally would flip Kuzmenko and Mangiapane and sign Joshua and Debrusk...assuming they sign for a contract Conroy likes.
Kuzmenko might be a great add to the Markstrom trade to get what we want and retain 50% on him and get the better assets in the trade with NJ.
