Yuh,everyone the fans vote in or coaches choose are all stars. Some are even pretty good at both ends of the ice,some don't shy away from hits either and some even excel in the playoffs.

How are people still arguing about Seguin/Eriksson at this point? There's nothing valid to even discuss 2 years later, is there?

How the heck did this thread turn into Seguin/Eriksson trade debate?
Agree with LSCII -- there's nothing much left to debate. And anyways, it's beside the point here.
The discussion was about defending Soda's contributions to the team (and the value he brought). Eriksson entered into the discussion as a point of comparison, given how people, as Glory pointed out, have deified him based on his performance last year, while crapping all over Soda. The evidence suggests Soda has been just as good, possibly even better, value for money. But he also has weaknesses too (the Fluto piece discussed some of them).
For the record, yes, I'm a massive critic of the Seguin trade, but as I said, that's entirely besides the point now. I do hope the Bruins find some way to improve offense on this team. That may mean moving Eriksson, or it may mean keeping him. If we can add offense while retaining Eriksson, all the better. But he may be one of our few assets with trade value. But if we move him, we better find a way to replace his production, as he was our second best scorer last year, Soda aside.
And that has nothing to do with the Seguin trade and everything to do with this team's offense next season.

Chiarelli doesn't have the balls- unless Jim Benning calls him up and tells him to do it.
I would love to see Chiarelli do it- would make great theatre and the revenge would be awesome- although Chiarelli gets everybody overpaid with NMC early so likely the Bruins never get the chance but I still want to see it happen
Claws are out. I'd love to see Chia go after us and get crushed. What better way for Chia to go out than go to a new employer and start a war with his previous one, only to ruin his current career with his new team. Perfect.
