Also, a lot of Seguin chatter this past weekend, too. Man, Boston is not happy with his professionalism...or lack there of

Offseason in full swing...draft was deep...I liked that the Flyer stood pat, and made a selection...They usually hit on their guys when they keep their picks. Also, Vinny is in Philly...I think he's a good fit...just like the Streit deal, though, there are too many years...Anyway, I would love if the Flyers could acquire Keith Yandle. If you want to make a deep run into the playoffs, then you will need that stud on the back end.

Damn, couver got taken to the cleaners over Schneider for the simple fact of not trading him in the same division.
I don't the the Bruins will trade Seguin, give him a whole year with camp, I bet he will look like 2011-12 form. Tough to move him, with Horton leaving

Agreed...that's why I was shocked that they were even considering it with Horton leaving...
And yeah, I guess upper-management wasn't willing to buy out Luongos deal...terrible for them.

Hahaha, apparently Seguin was forced to move his parents in with him by Bruins Brass because the kid is irresponsible.
Fucking hilarious

You still make assloads of money, and if you buy him out, you can build a team around Schneider. As my buddy who is a nucks fan said "Oh great, we bought out Ballard, now we have 8.2 mil to sign half a team" Just having Luongo, and the Sedin Sisters won't win you a cup

Loui Eriksson has been traded to the Boston Bruins in a massive seven-player trade. Along with Eriksson the Bruins got prospects Joe Morrow Reilly Smith and Matt Fraser and in return Dallas receives Tyler Seguin, Rich Peverley and Ryan Button. Eriksson recorded only 12 goals and 29 points in 48 games during the lockout-shortened season, but in his previous three campaigns he has surpassed the 70-point mark. He should slot in nicely on David Krejci's line, as Nathan Horton's replacement, or alongside Patrice Bergeron and Brad Marchand.

I'm excited for this trade. Eriksson fits the system much better than Seguin, being a two way forward and all. Not only that, but the Spects we got all seem to be pretty good, and we didn't give much up in Button. The best part might be the 5 mil in cap space we freed up that allows us to make a move for a top forward, such as Alfie.

Seguin COULD turn out to be an absolute stud, who knows...but I love Lou Eriksson...he's the ideal Bruin...plays 2-ways, kills penalties, and IMO replaces Horton with ease...

As my buddy who is a nucks fan said "Oh great, we bought out Ballard, now we have 8.2 mil to sign half a team" Just having Luongo, and the Sedin Sisters won't win you a cup Agreed completely...Now, they are stuck with him. Gillis was a moron by trying to get GOOD offers for Luongo...he should be fired because he could have gotten rid of him regardless. Pittsburgh is trying to win with just 3 players, too...it's not going to happen. The money Letang got was CRAZY by the way...he just doesn't warrant that kind of cash when he's not a great defender.

Alfredsson going to the Wings...wow. Toronto has a solid team. They need to trade Reimer for a d-man, though.

Bobby Ryan gone...not surprised, but he goes to Ottawa...him and Spezza could be nice. Ryan didn't want to be there in ANA this past season.

Too salty.
I would be okay if he left to go to a CONTENDER, but he left because he can't handle playing in a town that cares about the team? Fucking really?
