What's your preference in how to handle that? If it's not done, do you trade him? If so, when? As early as possible? What if we are sitting in a low playoff spot or something? Do you sell just to get something for him before he potentially leaves? I really dislike the position Hall is going to put us in if we don't have him locked up by the time the season starts.

Trade him. I'm not risking him getting hurt during the season and getting absolutely nothing. If he doesn't want to commit to us, trade him. You see what Mark Stone got with an extension? Imagine the return we get for Hall with an extension. Yes, I love Hallsy but I'm not risking the future of my franchise for to appease him. If he isn't signed to an extension by September, it's time to work the phones. I'm also not one for in-season extensions. That stuff should be handled during the offseason.

I mention Meier earlier. We know San Jose loves to make a splash, may lose EK...give me Meier in that deal over a draft pick. Nearly 70 points this year as a 22 year old. Yes, he's off his ELC, but that's fine, we have the space. Vancouver has a number of young guys that would certainly get my attention if they wanted to get involved.

There will be plenty of options/suitors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beekay414 Posted April 25, 2019 Author Share Posted April 25, 2019 @Forge You should ask that question in the team thread over on Hockey's Future. I'm definitely interested in how they'd respond. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I guess you shouldn't have been because they seem to have the same thought we do. Quote if Hall is not signed by training camp, he should be traded. Its pretty simple.

Forge Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Quote Jack Hughes, the likely No. 1 pick in the 2019 NHL draft, broke the IIHF Men's World U18 Championship scoring record Sunday -- a mark that had been held by Alex Ovechkin. Hughes collected three points in Team USA's 5-2 win in the bronze-medal game against rival Canada to finish his U18 worlds career with 32 points, one more than what Ovechkin put up over the 2002 and 2003 tournaments. Hughes's 20 points is the second highest single-tournament point total in the event's history. He fell just one point shy of equaling the record set by current Tampa Bay Lightning star Nikita Kucherov in 2011. Hughes set the mark for most points in a single tournament by a U.S. player. Welcome to New Jersey, Jack! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
