I wish Danny the best.
Good guy.
I was sorry he never came back to Boston with a new team as the fans would have given him a nice welcome.

Kevin Stevens still has many rooting for him

It was a bizarre deal. A Toronto doctor had ruled that Walton staying with the Maple Leafs was damaging to his mental health so a 3 way deal happened.
February 1, 1971: Traded to Philadelphia by Toronto with Bruce Gamble and Toronto's 1st round choice (Pierre Plante) in 1971 Amateur Draft for Bernie Parent and Philadelphia's 2nd round choice (Rick Kehoe) in 1971 Amateur Draft, February 1, 1971.
February 1, 1971: Traded to Boston by Philadelphia for Danny Schock and Rick MacLeish, February 1, 1971.
Orr pushed Schmidt to get Walton as they were best buddies. In fairness Walton did help the 72 Bruins win a Cup but he would bolt for the WHA a year later and Orr almost went to Minnesota (WHA) with him.

I definitely prefer giving up the difference between Reilly Smith and Jimmy Hayes than a second rounder. 12 fewer goals and 9 fewer assists for +5 million cap savings for 2 seasons vs giving up a second rounder for 4 million for one season. The players Florida got in return don't appear to be much, warts and all Hayes is certainly better than those 2.

Matti Hagman passed away last night at the age of 61. I don't know if any of you are old enough to remember him.

Something that often goes untalked about regarding the Segster
Lots of lower body injuries over his career so far

Seems to me some guys are just biologically more prone to injuries than others. Sure luck has a lot to do with it, but every player is getting bumped and slammed all the time, some go their whole careers and barely miss any games, others miss 20 a season for one reason or another
I think of Orr whose open ice skating and shifting left him vulnerable to knee hits and injuries. Not comparing Seguin to Orr but his skating style/game may leave him more vulnerable also. I haven't seen the cause of his injuries,I think I count 4 lower extremity injuries resulting in missed games in his career so far.

Savvy had his number retired the other night by the Oshawa. That's nice. I'd like to see him at the garden again, I never understood why they couldn't get him as an honorary captain in the playoffs...

I haven't seen him at a game at the Garden for awhile. I would love to see him attend a game this season. ...or be an assistant coach behind the B's bench...
