Also consider the fact Joe sets up more goals for other players..he creates room for other players. You never lose a franchise player, and dont get something big back in return. They didnt even get a guy with the possibility of becoming elite. Sure, the Pens did the same with Jagr, but they couldnt at all afford him in those times, they had no choice.
On a financial scale, this deal doesnt even make sense..they save only about 1.8 million.

They got hosed.

Again horeshit, did they get equal value, no, but considering what other teams have been getting for their stars lately this is pretty damn decent. Hardly Boston getting hosed.
