That neal trade really looks bad with Niskanen finally becoming a capable two-way d-man. And..you know...neal...

How's Seguin and Peverly looking so far this year? I have not been able to see the Stars play yet.

In Boston, Eriksson has gotten a slow start trying to find chemistry with Bergeron and Marchand. Recently the Bruins put Rielly Smith on that line instead of Marchand and Eriksson looks more comfortable. I have to say that I have been really surprised at how well Smith has played so far, his style has fit into the Bruins system pretty well. I don't know if he will stick on the 2nd line but he has been a great addition to the team, especially being so young.

Yeah it really does


I still say Gonchar is the weak link, Gogo was serviceable last year.
Effing hate Gonchar, almost called him out on autograph day at the ACC, so should have.

I agree. Goligoski is looking like the scapegoat but Gonchar is more to blame in my opinion. Unfortunately, Goligoski needs a good stay at home defenseman for a linemate to be effective. I think that Nemeth would be perfect if he was NHL ready.

Seguin and Peverly have been great additions. Seguin has great hands, a bullet shot and is a much faster skater than I thought. Peverly is proving to be a multifaceted player that can play up and down line combinations.
