If the oilers got Hamilton krejci smith for hall it would be more than the Bruins got for seguin
- Redmile247


correct, but from what i remember the bruins were actively seeking to trade seguin due to some off ice stuff, which i think was completely blown out of proportion. seguin is dynamite and i believe his value is equal to hall's right now, back then i think with the off the ice stuff and having not played as the 1C yet, his value was slightly less than halls.

An example of that would be the Kesler for Bonino, Sbsia, McCann trade.
- VanHockeyGuy

Bonino has been having a great season, but I don't see Sbisa making much impact. OR is he performing good thing silently?

I think he's saying that you rarely win a deal where you trade the best player on your team for less than one of the best players on another team.

There are some star for depth deals that have worked, but not a ton.

thank you morris for saying what i am clearly incapable of saying

This is accurate. We need a 1-2C and a 1-2D. Having both of those will change the outcome of the pressure on the underperforming goalies. It all depends on how we can adjust to cover the hole of the impact that Hall makes.

If you ask me, I think anyone is fair game outside of Hall, RNH and Nurse.

- ChetManly

Except most nhl teams are not trading 1/2 c's or d for horse poop. The only team that might is buffalo but mac t would have to go full (frank)ing retarded to do that.

I really don't understand how some fans think Hall is top 10. That is a complete joke. Like honestly c'mon you cant realistically think that?

Why isn't he allowed? I think he's a better overall player than Taylor Hall.
- jmatchett383


I guess...but of all the people to put in your top 10 you pick him?

Try Doughty or someone

Oilers need help everywhere. Please trade your first round selection this year. Please keep McDavid and Eichel out of Edmonton. Please get a competent GM that knows how to build a team. Get players that can keep pucks out of your own net instead of stockpiling players that can (supposedly) put the puck in the net. Get help on the back end instead of this hodgepodge of underwhelming players.

You have the pieces, go get leadership and a winning attitude. And if your GM cant do it, go get a new GM too.

Quite frankly I dont care much for the Oilers, but I am sick of seeing them stockpile top talent and ruin their confidence.

- dothedougie



It's not even December and there's a 75% chance of the Oil getting one of them, nothing significant is going to change from this point on of the season. Trading Perron, or even Eberle is shuffling deck chairs with how many holes there are to fill in this roster.

I'm confused. It's a good move. Why do people criticize the Oilers with standing pat, and then criticize the Oilers further when they make changes?

Was their ever going to be one move that would fix everything? Or are you just being a Richardbag?

- Morris


It's not the move that needs to be made.

It's kind of like rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. Pointless.

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.
- Matt_Henderson


this is what i was getting at. pietro is top 20, krejci is outside i believe. still a dynamite center

Why does that matter? He's stating an opinion of a player's mentioned rank.
