In New Jersey, Niclas Bergfors was labled as an unmotivated player with an attitude problem. He had tremendous potential, but just could not get it in gear and fell quickly into disfavor with head coach Jacques Lemaire.
Bergfors was then given a new lease on his career when he was packaged with Johnny Oduya, Patrice Cormier and a 2010 first round pick late last season.
In 27 games with the Thrashers, Bergfors registered 8 goals and 9 assists to close out the 2009-2010 campaign.
But Bergfors entered the 2010-2011 season with just as many question marks as he had just before leaving New Jersey. His motivation came again under fire and he was often a healthy scratch by head coach Craig Ramsay.
Today, Bergfors finds himself packing and on the move again. He has been traded along with Patrick Rissmiller for Radek Dvorak and a 2011 5th round pick.
Will this move finally get Bergfors on the right path and get his promising career on the right path?
