I really like Tyler Seguin. I think at his age he's only going to get much, much better.
I think Dallas made out in this deal big time!

Pure speculaton, of course.
I think this is right. Can anyone think of an example of a prospect he moved in a trade who went on to be a very successful NHLer? I'm not counting guys he just didn't re-sign (e.g. Moulson) or fringe NHLers (e.g. Carcillo). The Pens might have problems with their scouting leading into the draft, but it seems like they do a pretty good job assessing the prospects they actually get into the system.
Well Shero hasn't been around long enough to really say (small sample size). Esposito is the classic case of a prospect smartly moved... But Lovejoy and Letestu have both gone on to fill solid roles in the NHL. The case is still out on Tangradi (despite what 99% of LGP'ers say).

Ray Emery was fantastic for the Blackhawks. However, the Flyers are not the Blackhawks. So, this should be entertaining.

There isn't much out there that is "good". I think they only one that is left would be Ryan Miller....

Pronger going to LTIR will help and I think that Coburn will be gone soon.
