Rakell would be my #1 target. Great contract, piss-poor shooting percentage (bad luck). Could go supernova with Drai or Mcdavid.

Man somebody like him would be awesome. I hope Holland can pull something off to get a top 6 guy. I would ay that is down the list though compared to other needs.

Hall needs to be highly scouted before we gamble on him. Not sure how you crash so hard.

BUF has scored only 35 ES goals this season, we have scored 66 in comparison.

The sabres organization is a mess in general so I personally can't pin the issues on Hall. Dahlin is sporting a -21, and Eichel looks like he doesn't really care either. Sabre fans want to see Krueger fired (I'm surprised he hasn't been yet). That team is just a mess. Hall being traded for a contender would lit a fire under his ass again. I say he's reminiscent of Kessel in his career. Not that main star on a team anymore, but would still be a much serviceable top 6 winger.

I wonder what the Oilers could do assuming the asking price still isn't as high

I wonder what they wanted. I always liked this player.

I wonder what high is?

Like are we talking a 1st + Jones + prospect? Or am I way off here?

I'm open to 1st, Jones, and a prospect like Samorukov . If they ask for Holloway or Broberg, they can f*** off.

The Flames probably presented the Ducks with Bennett and his draft pedigree

Chris Johnson reported Hall wants to come back to Edmonton, and it would be one of his preferred destinations.

In my opinion, Hall is a 65 point player who would be perfect with Nuge.

Did he say this today?

Sounds about right. Might take Lagesson. A young swedish dman is right in their wheelhouse.

Agreed. A prospect like Lavoie or Samorukov would be fine. If they wanted someone kind of NHL ready Benson would be fine to throw in.

Where/when was this report?

 

[McAsuno]

Johnson talks about Hall at the 27:30 mark

Chris Johnston: “I think Taylor Hall wants to go back to Edmonton one day”

 

[Snipes45]

Where/when was this report?

Yeah, I don't see anything anywhere unless it was on the radio.

 

[VainGretzky]

To quote 5 Min for Ftg ... "A big NO f***ING WAY to Taylor Hall. No. Thank. You." He made it ever so clear - said it much better than I was going to.

Yea like the last thing Oilers need is the last 3 out of 4 Hart winners on the roster

He'd be a nice add when he turns into an upside down asset for the team that ultimately signs him long-term and they're willing to take some dead cap to move his crippling contract.

Until then, Hall is still the loser chasing dollars thinking that he's going to be a go-to guy that leads a team to success. Ten years in, that still hasn't worked for him.

 

[Mcnofool6110]

I understand it's stupid, but if we made a play for a goalie out of Detroit, hope we pry back Sam Gagner. Could be our Hendricks.

Also, Gagner in Oilers silks for the playoffs would be a treat.

Wonder if we could trade Chiasson or Neal to Minny - they desperately need PP help unless they plan to run a sub-10% man advantage into the playoffs.

This is old.

5 months (that's long to you?) ago still doesn't change the fact that he could still be traded here. Also was answering the question in regards to posters wanting clarification for Johnston's comment.

 

[fuswald]

I’ll can confirm that with straight from managements mouth that Taylor Hall was a huge problem in the room. That being said if they did bring him back I can guarantee you that his voice doesn’t hold a fraction of the weight that it once did. It wouldn’t be his team anymore and he’d just be a another cog in the machine.

Hall needs to be the leader to succeed. Whenever second fiddle he made teams worse.

He's in ours as well

Who was he second fiddle to in AZ? The 14-goal Kessel?

No iam sure it's still relevant. He certainly cost himself some money this year.

Gotta give something to get something.
