Wtf....donny couldn't do this deal?

 

[Root]

Well, Buffalo is going to get a haul for him because there is zero shot they contend. Hall didn't turn around three other shitbag franchises, he won't turn the shitbag buffalo franchise around either.

 

[Oates2Neely]

Buffalo???????

 

[member 96824]

Make it stop, please

he clearly thought buffalo was a better team

If Taylor Hall was in Mighty Ducks he would have been on the Hawks

 

[ranold26]

Hall takes 1yr 8m...

 

[Gonzothe7thDman]

Would definitely prefer beating that offer for hall and not having one of Miller/Moore than missing out.

But if he chose buffalo it is what it is and he has his reasons.

Also Buffalo gonna get a haul for him at the trade deadline @ 50% retention

 

[JCRO]

1 year 8 mil means it was more about the money.

Tears it up this year with Eichel then signs the big deal next year.

But still..... what a loser

 

[BAD BOY]

Halls a fraud . A padded stat loser.

Boston offseason once again

Lose on Pietro, lose on OEL, lose on Hall
Let Schmidt probably go for very little

Where the hell is Krug money going to go?

JJ's pocket?

 

[UncleRico]

Going to be very interesting to see what Sweeney does next. Just hope it’s not another David backes type panic button move.

He needs to do something though or else he’s definitely on the hot seat.

 

[Pia8988]

Hey Hall. Want to come play next to David Krejci? No?!?! You'd really pick Jack Eichel over David Krejci!?!!

 

[missingchicklet]

In no way am I upset at DS. Hall is all about the money, which is fine. Don't blame him a bit. He is who he is. Very happy that DS didn't do something stupid and bring this guy in long term, or for an outrageous sum that cripples the team to make other moves. Now just get another scoring forward and some LHD help, and it will be a successful offseason.

Even the Toffoli/Dadynov type level guys may be too alpha for Switzerland Sweeney to close. He’s the big dawg in the depth dman market period everywhere else he’s a spineless worm

 

[Bruinaura]

Can we at least wait to see what the Bruins offer was, before assuming this is all Sweeney's fault?

He can't hold a gun to the guy's head.

 

[MattFromFranklin]

Hoffman/Dadonov/Toffoli it is then. Wouldn't be surprised if we missed out on them either at this rate

Sweeney has pretty much done nothing to warrant confidence that he’ll sign one of those players. The “big move” was Craig Smith. The rest of the cap space will be used to re-sign JDB, Grzelcyk, and another bottom-pairing D.

 

[Widdlez]

Well you know maybe next year we can sign him after our 2nd line center and number one goalie retires and our core is another year older! good thinking, donny!

this front office is so timid it hurts, just go for it.

 

[sarge88]

Great deal for Buffalo, provided he doesn’t have a NMC.

Hall gets to enjoy lovely Buffalo from December to March and then get traded and Buffalo gets to stock up for the future.

 

[Scruffy]

Nah he wants to pad his stats with Eichel and try to get paid next year thinking cap goes up after covid which is stupid because no one knows what the global landscape will look like next year.

 

[Five for Hooking]

JJ's pocket?

You know it man.
