Subban was always a Bruins killer though... I feel like he would have his biggest games against Boston... he just seemed to feed off the rivalry.

I love how Shea Weber is mentioned NOWHERE when talking about this trade. It's all just "Montreal is crazy for trading Subban!" Nobody ever mentions that he was traded for Shea Weber... it's insane. I think Weber is a much better overall player than Subban... he's just not a huge attention whore like Subban is.

I think the Hall trade was more just a matter of circumstance. They were overloaded with talented scoring forwards, and severely lacking on defense. I don't think it was a great trade by any means, but I think it was made for different reasons than the Seguin and Subban deals. But why it had to be Taylor Hall straight up for Adam Larsson is beyond me... if they were going to move Hall in that deal, they should have gotten a 1st round pick at the very least in addition to Larsson.

You have to believe another team was willing to offer someone better than Larsson for Hall. Minnesota maybe would have parted with Scandella or Spurgeon. Maybe avs would have done some sort of package for Barrie. Maybe Boston would have given up Mcquaid for hall....

But although it is unforeseen exactly how Larsson pans out as a player, I think that trade is the worst of this offseason
