[Rumour] Devils listening to offers on Taylor Hall


Recommended Posts

Wrong player at wrong time.

Money will be too much even if Louie goes the other way.  

Going to have to sign EP and Quinn soon and they are likely going to be pricey.

Too much money for a winger, we definitely need another top 6 winger but they are going to need to come from within or for someone with a much more modest contract.

Two teams in the early phase of rebuilds rarely make good trading partners unless it is moving scrap pieces or trading bad contracts.

Just don't care for him as a player either.  Terribly inconsistent.

In an ideal world this works... but he probably wants a max 8 year extension for big dollars and that is just something to stay away from since it will also cost a boatload of assets.

If he doesn't agree to sign an extension with any team dropping his value significantly, I would be happy to pick him up as a rental in return for Virtanen and roll the dice that we had some postseason success/meshed with the guys...and he wanted to sign in the summer at a bit of a discount to stay.  Gamble, but the upside of it working is a lot more than the upside of Jake becoming a regular impact player.

not familiar enough with Hall's history that would suggest this.. examples? 

Its probably intuition more than anything. Not a coincidence he got traded one year after the oilers drafted mcdavid. Alpha male attitude instead of team mentality i would guess. 

 

Or he just wants to play for nhl teams.

What’s scary is Colorado can probably offer a better package than most teams and still put together an elite team

 

Hall - MacKinnon - Burakovsky

Landeskog - Kadri - Rantanen

Jost - Compher - Donskoi

Nieto - Kamenev - O’Connor

exactly they could easily throw out a first  and bowen bryan  at the devils   for hall
