Yeah, but that pick was conditional on the Bruins making the final 4...so there was some risk limiting there.
Really Eriksson would really seem to fit what Boston needs, RW who can score 30 goals 70 points and play well in all zones, and can do it now for the next 2-3 years.
It does seem to be a good move for both teams. Let's face it even if the Flames added Seguin to their current roster for nothing...the team is not in the playoffs next year barring some serious luck. Eriksson at this point in his career on ice is more valuable than Iginla or at least equal. So unless the Flames wanted to part with numerous assets he was not a player the Flames could land.
