your opinion isn't based on any facts.

fact is, boston won the cup with kaberle. that's the ultimate goal of any trade. they win.

This. Boston had the luxury of already having a top ten pick from Toronto in the upcoming draft, so they could easily trade their own pick away. Also they have Seguin in the system, so they could easily part ways with Colborne.

Yeah right whatever, keep telling yourself that when Boston still has to go out there and trade for another PMD because Kaberle wasn't worth a contract extension that they originally wanted to offer him, lol. Kaberle played himself right out of Boston's plans but they win the trade? If Kaberle would've played well you argue that but he was so bad they gave him the fewest minutes of any D man on the team. You clowns would argue that even if Kaberle would have been a healthy scratch so your argument means nothing. Whatever bro, haters gonna hate and Burke took them to the cleaners on that trade so give him credit. Boston fans should just say "Well that trade was a total bust but we still won so life goes on."

If they could find a way to dump Staal without adding too much talent in return they would be a shoe in for ninth, lol
