I think all of this is way over blown. Charelli said so in an interview that the hard partying is overblown and he didnt see anything out of Seguin that he wouldn't see in any other 21 year old. Much less a 21 year old Stanley Cup champion making millions. The guy will grow and mature and be a great player in this league. The deal made sense for both sides. The bruins had one too many top-2 centers and traded the one most expendable to them at this time. They are in win now mode and Seguin won't enter his prime for another 2-4 years. Ericsson is a hell of a player and will help the Bruins. Seguin can grow along side Benn and Dallas gets a great defensive center in Peverly, while Boston opens cap space to get Iginla short term. Good hockey trade.
