His 36 goal campaign shows his shooting percentage was over 20% not only is that not sustainable, but that also leads me to believe that his centers set him up for a few gifts.
I am not saying he isn't good, just not an elite player.

Offensively maybe, but Eriksson has a great 2 way game, one of the best 2 way wingers in the game. Before this shortened season he had 3 or 4 60-70 point seasons, that whole Dallas team this year really fell off though so it's no surprise his point totals were down. Like I said, this is a very good trade for both clubs. However I wouldn't be surprised in 5 or 6 years time if Dallas becomes the winner of this deal, Seguin is still only 21 and has time to improve.
However this improves Boston very well IMO.
