This is incorrect. Hall is the one p!ayer in our lineup that makes anyone better that he plays with. He puts up points year after year no matter who he plays with. And other guys out up points playing with him.

Because he get's point and other people get points cause he get points?

There's more to hockey than points Iggy.....you know this. I hope.

You think Hall is a top-20 player? Not trying to be snarky, just wondering. Are we talking just forwards, or all players?
- jmatchett383


Fwds- that prediction is fairly easy.... If we are talking LW he is top 5

See oiler fans might not think it's enough ...Bruins fan think it's too much ...I think it's about right

Each team has a different perception of a trade

- Redmile247



Insert a different player than hamilton, and I would be ok with it.


Dougie is a stud, he needs to stay in Boston. We need at least one guy who looks good in a handlebar mustache.

I don't think it's a bad trade. It'll hurt losing Hall. I dunno. Coin toss?

In a nutshell he said to many individual efforts instead of using your head. I think he was calling out Hall. Hall tries too much some times but he's still our best player. I agree in part with Perron but if the other players gave halls effort it would also be different. The reason he's trying moves 1 on 3 is because there is no one else with him.

Sounded like he was calling out Schultz on his stupid pinch.

He is one of the best LWs on the planet, he's young, and he's on one of the best deals in the NHL. He is by far Edmonton's best player. It takes top 20 for the Oilers to move him.

If only he had as many points as Johnny Gaudreau

Edmonton Oilers@EdmontonOilers

The #Oilers have relieved goaltender coach Frederic Chabot of his duties. Dustin Schwartz will replace Chabot in the role.


That should fix everything. It was obviously Frederic Chabot's fault that the oil suck.

Solid management MacT.

I know you just have a hate on for Hall. He makes anyone he plays with better. Period.

If you flipped the prospect you could probably make the value work, but Oshie is one of those players that is more valuable to his current team (mostly marketing and ticket sales) than he is to someone else. He also wouldn't fit the need at C for EDM because he hasn't played it since college to my knowledge.

Aw man, thought he was a C. My bad

Left winger, he's probably top-3 after Benn and Parise (no order, but those would be my top 3, probably Benn slightly over Hall). I'd take him over Rick Nash, JvR, etc. But LW is probably the weakest currently NHL position for star power. Which does make him even more attractive.

Well then, in that case:

Chris VandeVelde for the Oilers next 37 first round draft picks.

I mean, those draft picks have zero NHL production, and VandeVelde has a whole fistful of NHL points. He's the best player in the deal right now, so it's a clear win for Edmonton.

- jmatchett383


Way to completely miss the point. If you are trading hall (top 10 player in the league the last 2 years), you better get back a good return. i like krejci, but he isn't an upgrade on RNH and would be slotted as the 2C. My point was that this isn't a slam dunk from the oilers perspective and an egregious loss for the bruins since they are getting a top 10 player.

Also if the Oilers 1st rounder this year is not already better than VandeVelde then there is a serious problem with this year's draft. thanks for coming out though

Nope, they need a C. Tin Renney knows what he's talking about.

A top 6 C (one that starts the "who is 1C" debate). Then a 1D. Then a goalie. Scrivens has it in him...Maybe for his coach first.
