Re: Boston huge trade
Players like Thornton only come around once a decade. Anyone who likes Boston in this one - why? Unless you put Bergeron in as the first line center, it makes no sense.
I think the trade is fairly even, but only if Brad Stuart becomes the #1 defender he's been projected to be for years. Otherwise, the Bruins get three fairly pedestrian players back for a top talent. Sturm's an excellent 2nd line wing and Primeau's a good grinder, but that obviously doesn't add up to a Joe Thornton. It's Stuart who will make or break this deal.
