Exactly... If it were me, I wouldn't deal with Toronto... Unless there's another 1st round picking coming back ;-)

I hope that Kessell kills Seguin in points this year. I'll feel justified.

You'd feel justified if a 5th year player outscores a Rookie?
It should be the other way around... If Seguin outscores Kessel, then Toronto will be the laughing stock.

Seguin won't be in the NHL this season, Hall will make it with the Oilers, not Seguin.

We shall see long term who will be the better player. Kessel is the real deal. Is Seguin?

Here's what I'd like to see: Wheeler goes to arbitration and gets a $2.0-2.5M award. At this point, the Bruins get 48 hours to buy out someone's contract on the team according to league rules, so they buy out Ryder. This buys them the cap room to sign Seguin ($900,000 for first year, although I'm not sure if bonuses count in the first year?) and Wheeler (up to $2.5M). With Sturm on LTIR, his cap space of $3.5M is off the books until he can play again (which I hope is never, haha). When Sturm comes back, hopefully by then the team can find someone in desperate need of goaltending and they can trade Tim Thomas for a prospect, draft pick, a bag of pucks or whatever else helps to alleviate the cap pressure.
Personally, I can't understand the Savard trade rumors. The dude took a hometown discount to stay with the B's for the remainder of his career. He changed his game for this team and became a legit 2-way player. His hands, vision and competitiveness are top notch. He has a little bit of a nasty streak in him (which I love). He is perennially a point-per-game centerman.
I don't care how many Bergerons/Krejcis/Seguins/Colbornes/Hamills there are in the organization, guys like Savard are far and few between at $4M a year.

Is Seguin the real deal? Yes... Is Kessel? Maybe... Kessel is so one sided in his game that he's a defensive liability...
BPK, I have to agree on everything you said there. I'm at a loss when it comes to savard because I believe he's the Bruins best offensive player, but I don't want another season like the last.....
Sturm, Ryder, and Thomas all have to go... Put them on ebay or something.... lol.
Seguin, Wheeler, Bergeron, Savard, Krejci, Lucic, Colbourne, Hamil, Chara, Seidenberg, Stuart, Boychuk, Horton, are the present and future of this team... We have a monster team, and this year we're gonna prove it.
