The Shocking NHL Trade Blunders That Could Cost Contenders the 2025 Conn Smythe Trophy
3. Boston Bruins
The trades: The big one here is that the Bruins sent Brad Marchand to the Panthers at the deadline for a conditional second. But don’t forget that they also sent Tyler Seguin to the Stars. Sure, it was over a decade ago, but for our purposes, it still counts.
(They also traded Trent Frederic to Edmonton at the deadline, although technically he had a stop in New Jersey as part of a three-way deal, so I’m not sure how much that counts.)
The case for: The Seguin deal was unquestionably bad, partly because the Bruins, for some reason, decided to film the discussions that led to it and then post that online. Time will tell if Boston fans view the Marchand deal as a negative, but seeing him go to a division rival and help them win a Cup would at least be tough to swallow.
