Former Bruin Jason Allison recently sat down with the guys from Spittin' Chiclets to talk about his career in the NHL.
During the interview, Allison told the story of how he reacted to being traded to the Bruins from Washington. He claimed that he was surprised of the trade as it seemed like Boston was giving up an incredible player in Adam Oates to get an average return.
«I think my original reaction was, ‘What the f*** is Boston doing?'» Jason Allison was dumbfounded when the Bruins traded for him.
The trade ended up being worth it for the Bruins as Allison would go on to have his best seasons in the NHL in Boston, where he surpassed 60 points 3 times including one season of 85 points.
