HossaWhich player could be traded ? I see that Stepan and Grabner are not providing that much offense.

Outsider here.... how Hall's new contract would fit on next year's salary cap ? I saw on capfriendly that you guys have 15 players signed already taking $80,715,000. The cap next year will be around 83M, so not a lot of money remaining.

We need talent, at all positions. I love Hall, his passion and the way he plays, but in four years who knows. Hall is a star, some say super star, we don't have one on our team. Star players, at any position, are not replaceable. Don't forget, star players will/should attract other higher end talent.I am not high on Hall, especcially in terms of decision making. Look at the OT in Toronto game, Yotes have 1:30 PP 4 vs 3, an Hall killed it with two dumb shots and a turnover. For the last moments of that pp he remembered of Chychrun existance.
Do not want to pour big bucks in that guy. Wingers are replaceable, we need centers.
I am fully understand I would in minority here, though

OEL for RyJo. 1:1 - even swap.Everyone in the league wants a centre.
Question is how are are we going to get one? We've been trying for like 15 years to get a high end C.
21yo season 63ptsI said high end
22yo season 71pts
21yo season 63pts
22yo season 71pts
23yo season 60pts
24yo season 61pts
25yo season 54pts
26yo season 64pts
*27yo season 46pts (pace)*
So from 21 to 26 he averaged 62pts per season. He looked to be right on the verge of being a top center in this league. Headed right into his prime and then *SPLAT!!!*
I'd argue the same was very true of OEL.
22yo season 15g, 44pt
23yo season 23g, 43pt
24yo season 21g, 55pt
25yo season 12g, 39pt
26yo season 14g, 42pt
27yo season 14g, 44pt
*(28yo season 09g, 33pt (pace)*
So from 22 to 27 he had avg 17g, 45pts per season and then *SPLAT!!!*
Both coinciding with giant new contracts. So strange. Very similar players. Just inexplicable falls.
Reading the complaints from both fanbases about each players is the same, too.
Arizona is bottom 10 in GF/GP in the NHL and Nashville is top 10. Arizona has the 5th best GA/GP in the league and Nashville has the 5th worst. AZ needs scoring ESPECIALLY at center. Nashville needs a D. It could make some sense.
Nashville does not need OEL, and RyJo career PPG is almost the same as Stepan, and is getting paid $8 mil. / yr. No thank you.OEL for RyJo. 1:1 - even swap.
Winning a round AND signing Hall costs the team another 1st, right? So, little chance they win a round. So it is just a third in 2021 they lose?
Yes to all, but I`m not sold. Poor decicsion making, very avarege balance.Do we have a better player on the roster? Does he work hard every game, every shift? Does he not make players around him better? Our #1 goal scorer absolutely loves playing with him. How could we justify NOT trying to sign this guy?
Yes, but Keller and Schmaltzy still have room to be better, maybe with another coach/system. Hall can be only worse.Keller at $ 7M for eight years and Schmaltz at $ 6M for 7 are much more of a problem than a $ 10M Taylor Hall.
I can see why someone might not be thrilled with the idea of paying Hall 80m. I get that. But you’re probably the only guy worried about his “average balance” as a factor in this. Haha.Yes to all, but I`m not sold. Poor decicsion making, very avarege balance.
There is no reason to give him more than $8.5m.
