My guess is a bag of pucks. But seriously I could Kind of justify the Boyes trade because Boston is actually deep at center and despite popular believe Wideman actually is a decent defender, with a offensive upside. That Soderberg is a Big kid, He is 6-3, 200lbs and he is only 21, Second round pick, so with the recent addition of Fernandez, and Rask waiting in the winds(P-Bruins Starter now) I think Toivonen was the most expendable of the group with maybe the exception of Thomas(He would be hard to move right now because of the 1 mil cap hit and his age and experience.)

Man Boston gives up on goalies quick. Wonder who they'll get for Rask after his first loss.

I'm wondering if Chiarelli and Davidson have something going on here. This is (2) promising prosepects that Boston has sent over in Boyes previously and now Toivonen. I wish Boston hadn't given up on him this quickly. He is young and probably one day will be a legitimate top 5 or 10 goalie in the league.

I don't know much on this Soderberg. It sounds like he has some upside. As a bruin fan I am still upset over the Boyes/Wideman trade. Wideman is brutal.

I imagine Toivonen and Bacashihua will battle out who backs up Legace with the loser starting on the farm?
