Lets Go Buffalo !!!
I hope it's somewhere else at that price.. 5 years at 6 is most I'd do.. Buffalo already has two boat anchors don't need a 3rd..

5 at $6-7 seems about right. His ego brings down every team he goes to, you need some big personalities on a team to keep that in check, and usually that’s teams who have spent on leaders already. It’ll be interesting

He should do what he should have done this year, take a < $5 million contract with a contender, prove he can be a valuable member of a winning franchise and then cash in.
But he almost guarantees you a first overall pick! There's gotta be some value in that too.

Most Flames fans seem to want him but I hope he signs somewhere else. I'd take him at 5M or less but he isn't going to sign for that so good luck to whoever backs up the money truck.

He will get traded to a contender in the next few weeks.
If he lights it up for the remaining games plus playoffs, this shit start will be all of forgotten and a big long term awaits.

This right here is it. That said, ever since right before Jack went down, Taylor has been playing pretty darned well. He seems to have a bit of chemistry with Cozens (who's on the shelf right now) and a bit with Staal. He's hit a ton of posts (just like Skinner....and Eichel....and every other god-forsaken Sabre) and generally looks dangerous a lot lately.
If he could...ya know......actually produce, he might be earning that contract right about now.

Yep, Barrie is doing it right. He should be able to cash in for a team desperate for a RHD PMD
The most overrated player in NHL. GMs should reconsider if they value their players based on skill or popularity contest. 90% of them by popularity. Look at his numbers, average third liner. Past his prime. Possible locker room problem if you watch carefully NJ Devils play against him now. There is some rift between Hall and Devils.
As a Wingws fans I'd do 2-3 years at $7-$8M. If he picks up his play then he will have accomplished either
1. helping us get into the playoffs in his last year
2. Will have increased his stock enough to bring in a big haul by the deadline of his last season
If he continues as just a 50-60pt guy we can still retain a bunch and get something decent at the deadline
We're going to have a LOT of cap to work with so a short term overpay wouldn't hurt

Any players in particular on the Devils that seem to dislike him? Seemed to be the case when he left the Oilers too.

He gambled on himself playing with Eichel and lost.
I thought it was a smart play as well.
With a flat cap for the foreseeable, think its in the $6mill range for 5 years
Unless he plans on being a Merc for the rest of his career

Unless he wants to bet on himself again for low money and one season, I don't touch him with a Gondolier's pole.

If Hall wanted to win a Cup and then sign a fat contract he should've signed a one year deal with TB or Vegas or the likes for under a $1 million. Something tells me he values personal stats and money more than a Cup.

I'd be absolutely shocked if someone gave him a max term deal at 9 AAV.
At his age he shouldn't have gone for the one year deal he just did but I don't think hes too bright
As a Flames fan if he were to want to come home for mid dollars, I'd do 5M for 4 years, he bet on himself with the wrong team, so he's taking a cut on his next contract unless he somehow pulls out like 35-45 points for the rest of the season. Maybe I'd go up to 6 but only for 3 years, maybe he'll get another contract somewhere else, but injury concerns, leadership concerns(toxic) and then the declining, don't forget about Covid... knocks his money down.
