What Could Have Been In Boston

from Fluto Shinzawa of the Boston Globe,

Only two-plus seasons in, trading Tyler Seguin looks like a horrible mistake. The Dallas superstar, who is still only 23, could have 10-plus more years to compound the pain of a regrettable deal.

There is no questioning Seguin’s talent. Not after a three-goal, six-shot eruption at TD Garden on Tuesday that led the Stars to a 5-3 win. The ex-Bruin is one of the most skilled players in the league — a flammable package of speed, hands, creativity, and predatory offensive instincts.

That he’s doing this for another team didn’t have to happen.

“It’s just in the past now,” Seguin said of the prospect of being a lifelong Bruin. “I’ve moved on. I’m loving living in Dallas. I’m loving being a Dallas Star.”

Seguin didn’t want to leave. He planted roots in friendships with former linemates Brad Marchand and Patrice Bergeron that will last forever.
