The problem with Seguin in Boston was exactly what everyone has been saying, he just didn't fit. Guys like Marchand, Bergeron, and Krejci are who belong on that squad, not guys like Seguin.
I'm really happy for him that he's found a fit in Dallas. Playing with someone like Jamie Benn is a HUGE difference for him. He didn't have anyone like that in Boston. Boston doesn't really have any true pure skill guys like Benn.
While we're on the topic of Benn, I honestly believe he's in the running for most underrated player in the NHL. Him and Patrick Sharp are my two votes. Guy is a hockey player's hockey player.

Anyway, I'm happy for him.
And let's not underrate Loui Eriksson. He's an incredibly talented guy that isn't even 30 yet. He has a lot of REALLY good hockey in front of him. He's basically just entering his prime. Great 2-way guy that anyone would love to have on their team. He'll find his stride in Boston, I'm sure of it. I don't think that John Scott hit helped him any.
