It wouldn't surprise me to see Taylor Hall sign with Boston as an UFA on a relatively team-friendly deal (<$9 million). The Bruins were apparently his favorite team growing up (to say nothing of him once wearing #4), and the team will be competitive for some time. If the Bruins were to trade for him this season, however, perhaps a deal featuring Krug (another pending UFA) or Debrusk might work. I don't know whether the Devils are on Krug's list of teams to which he'd accept a trade, though, much less sign an extension with.
What does it take to get him over here? I'm not personally willing to trade Bowen Byram, so let's just get him off the table before we start.Avs make a ton of sense for the Devils.. gets him out west to a team that can realistically afford to extend him. Might even be able to convince him to immediately sign an extension.
Think they'd make good trade partners.
DeBrusk for Hall makes no sense,the Bruins need him,Krug and a young player would be more doable . I would even give a pick contingent on Hall resigning.DeBrusk for Hall makes sense. Devils could really use a player like him.

Zadorov is a fan favorite and brings a really unique game, but I'm sure there would be a lot of Devils fans who wouldn't like that as a return as his stats don't really tell his whole story. He's also an RFA at the end of this season.That would certainly be our first ask but I understand now wanting to trade him.
LIke I said, if Hall is traded it needs to be for some type of LHD in my opinion. Zadorov and something? I'm not really sure.

What's that add look like? Probably a first right? Any interest in a player like Tyson Jost instead of a pick? We have an abundance of depth forwards and Jost looks decent/good at 3C but we also have Compher for that spot (on a good value deal).
I have no idea what I'm doing.
I personally would definitely have interest in a Hall for Zadorov/Jost type of deal. Not sure how many of my fellow NJD fans would agree.
the Devils biggest need right now is a young-ish LD who can play in his own zone and be physical but still move, which is exactly what Zadorov is
Lateral trade, Gaudreau for Hall.
Perfect, then the sharks play how the **** do we fit an 11 mil extension under the cap
I would not do this but Roman Josi straight up for Hall?
Thats never the truth, the sharks have about 16 mil in cap space if league cap stays the same next year with the only notable names that need to be signed being Labanc and Simek. Labanc maybe gets 5 and Simeks max is like 2-3 mil, so we can make moves to get Hall if he wants to come.Devils fans have been telling me for years that there is no way to fit a star salary in if you are tight on the cap. Thats why you have to have to have a decade of zero players on your team if you ever want to be good.
Speaking of - The Sharks are tight on the cap so there is no way hall will end up there. Think only team he can go to is Ottawa.
