No thanks to bringing back Erixon.
IMO, what he did was worse than what Eric Lindros did. Lindros was at least up front from the beginning about not wanting to play in Quebec. He didn't string them along for almost two years before saying no. Also, he was the most anticipated first overall pick since Mario Lemieux and until injuries slowed him down, he was among the top players in the league. He may have been a self-centred primadonna, but unlike Erixon, he at least had the talent to back it up.
