ill be honest, trades arent something i keep a close eye on so i had to do a bit of research. i didnt really know of any trades that were considered bad, but i did have a trade in the back of my mind. as a freshly new fan of hockey and my home state team i have a slight recollection of the Bruins trading away Tyler Seguin and, while i was focused more on learning the game at that time, seeing how his career has turned out down the line i always wondered why we got rid of him. so what exactly did Boston get in return? along with Seguin they shipped out Peverley and Button while acquiring Loui Eriksson, Reilly Smith, Joe Morrow and Matt Fraser. Loui did okay in his time here and i did enjoy Reilly Smith, though he seemed to hit his stride later in his career with other teams. Joe Morrow is a name im vaguely familiar with and Matt Fraser even less so. considering what Seguin has done id much rather have him, so needless to say this is probably one of the worst trades ive witnessed since following the Bruins.
