Ty Anderson: Boston Bruins Year in Review: Loui Eriksson

So Ty, the big question. Do you put Loui with Looch and Krejci, or with Bergy and Marchy?

My vote would be with Bergeron and Marchand. Give connolly a look at that top line to start off. Who knows though, could be looking at some changes, but as of right now thats how I would do it.

Honestly, I think the perfect fit for Eriksson would be with 51/88, but if they're logging third-line minutes, I think it's a tough sell because I think Eriksson could and should be more than that. But we know how the ice-time juggling game works, so maybe it's all the same.

I think spoons and Pasta will see sheltered 3rd line minutes next season unless they outplay the Lucic/Krejci line. Could see them just rolling 3 lines and using the 4th line sparingly. But who knows.

Not a bad idea. Honestly I just want to see more pasta. I'm italian, so the more pasta the better.

Lou's name came up in a lot of VAN trade talk at the TDL.

Unless they want to do Vrbata for Eriksson + good young asset...no thanks.

Boston needs to wipe the slate clean in the worst way

So much mismanagement of assets and contracts since they won the cup. Nostalgia will cripple a sports franchise

Dump Seidenberg and Chara for whatever you can get

Trade Marchand, Lucic, Eriksson for young assets.

Let Bergeron, Krejci, Rask, Hamilton, Reilly, Spooner, Connolly, Krug be the new core of the team

7 guys in the core is 3 too much.

I dont agree.

Coming from a CHI fan, the blackhawks core has been Keith, Seabrook, Kane, Toews, Hossa, Hjlamarsson, Sharp all along

"And to be honest, I’m not taking many calls on Eriksson after his impressive four goal, 10-point performance in eight games at the World Championships in the Czech Republic this spring. ". -Ty

Amazing when he plays with other skill guys what he can do.

Ericksson - Spooner - Pasta

Not every team has a top 7 like that

Those four are your most important guys. Those are the guys to build around. Having a core that's too big is a major part of the problem.
