Hall has 4 points through 4 games.

I think this is all a reaction to Hall's attempts at beating people by stick handling through their legs. It doesn't work.
At this point all you can look at is their stats
Hall 130 GP 50 goals 50 assists 100 points
Seguin 159 GP 40 goals 50 assists 90 points
Hall has the bigger frame and is the type of player that this team needs. Seguin is a good player but I take Hall for the way that he plays the game.
Sequin is playing 15 to 17 min a night with very limited powerplay time.
Hall is playing 19 to 22 min a night with 1st line powerplay duties.
Your hate for Sequin is nonsensical. Both are fantastic players.
Hall appears to have more drive and determination, with reckless speed.
However, Sequin's sublime stickhandling and shot, could lead to a longer, more productive career.
The Oilers could of used both of these players ... Sequin, who can play center (but is only used in that role by Boston in limited situations), would of been the better long term fit for the Oilers, IMHO.
I like Gagner, but we need a bigger physical presence that can win faceoffs in that number 2 spot. Could that of been Sequin?
Sequin is on the first line with Bergeron and Marchand. He has more PPTOI/G than either of his linemates and is fourth on the Bruins forwards for PPTOI/G.
Brad Marchand is tied for the team lead in scoring. Is he being given limited opportunities?
Who is getting 4 to 5 min extra time per game.
Rougly, Hall gets 4:20 in PP time per game Sequin 3:20 ...
Better players get more ice time.
LOL, teams with depth use more players.
He had a really bad game. It happens. Even playing like crap he put up more points last night than Seguin has all year so far.
That would totally explain why Chara only plays 20mins a night, because of the depth....oh wait.
Really Jimmie, you believe Edmonton has more depth than Boston. That comment says an awful lot about your hockey IQ.
Not a troll thread you say? I remember last year when Seguin got out to his hot streak and Hall was returning from injury and not playing well, now we are still bringing this crap up when Hall is outscoring Seguin by 4 points while having played the same amount of games? Seguin has the least amount of points on his LINE, there are 9 players on his TEAM that have more points, and now is the time that you choose to post this? Hall is tied for the team lead in scoring in spite of not looking like he's playing at his best. His play right now reminds me a bit of his first 5-7 games in the AHL, after that he found his way and went on a tear. His speed backs defenses off like no one else on this team, once he settles down a bit, stops trying to force the cross ice pass to Eberle on the PP, and starts making better decisions with the puck he will be more than fine.
, you get confused so easily. It's ok I'll explain.
Well it's true teams with depth use that depth, the reality is that, even on those "deep teams", the best players get "the most time". That's why on a deep team like the Bruins, Zdeno Chara plays close to 30 minutes a night.
I hope that dis-spells some of the confusion.
