Not really a bad trade imo but....
Is now really the time to shake things up?
You know Cole had bad influence in the locker room when you are 1st and you trade someone like that.

That line makes sense.I'm sad to see Cole leave. A classy player and individual, and a great leader.
We won't know the true value of this trade until the summer I'm guessing, as between the Gomez buyout and likely Kaberle, in addition to this trade, Bergevin has dropped close to $16M for each of the next couple of seasons.
I wouldn't be surprised to see one of two things happen:
- Bergevin will be going after a good UFA in the summer; or
- He has another deal brewing which would bring salary back.
Ryder could do well with Eller and Galchenyuk in the mean time.

I don t understand why MB aka Rejean Houle would trade one of his leaders when the team is doing good? Erik Cole is the prototypical power-forward off to a slow start ...who cares! he has 6PTS MP has 14 and Plek 13 wow (only in Montreal) The team has a chance to win now or at least had a chance to win. Who is next ...PK? he's already on the 3rd D line. (I miss Garbo and Gainey)

Physical? Eller is as "physical" as Kostistyn was.

Weird trade. Don't really see the point of this one...
I'm sure the coaching staff will ask Ryder everything he knows about Tuuka Rask's goaltending weakspots.

WTF?! If it weren't for the "Confirmed with Link" thing, I thought this would be a joke thread.
First bad transaction of the Bergevin era. Ryder was a third liner on the Bruins for damn good reason. He's one dimensional as heck. I suppose the brass believes that the young guys will be entering the top 6, because Ryder better not.
