Chiarelli blew it. He got stupid, and desperate, and blew an elite player out for a good defenseman. Poor value. Hall never quit on a team that hung him out to dry for years, and now chia quit on Hall. He's everything an Oiler should be and now he's gone. FU Chiarelli and FU Eberle for eating up the cap space to keep Hall, while mailing it in.

young defensemen always are undervalued for the most part. Especially if you aren't putting up big points, other teams fans just think they are bad when really they aren't. (we have a couple of them)

hall put up great numbers on a brutal oilers team. Larsson is good but I guess if u look at value throw in a 2nd and it's more fair? oilers don't need it

You're welcome New Jersey enjoy my favorite player. Guy leaves it out on the ice every single night. He will be beast. NJ is my new east team, hope nothing but the best for you.

Holy ****. People were saying Hall doesn't even get in the conversation for the Blues without Pietrangelo being included...

It kind of sucks for Hall that he had to waste his entire career at the bottom of the standings, and when they're finally trending upwards (maybe?), he's the piece to go.

New Jersey just ripped Edmonton off bigger than anybody before. I mean sure the Oilers have Larsson, but could've gotten him for less.

This trade should not have happened.

Chia gave away Seguin for nothing and just did the same again.

It's absolutely insane too for anyone to insinuate that Hall was ANY kind of problem in Edmonton. The reason why the Oilers have been continuously terrible is due to things like what just happened - bad management decisions.

Yeah trade value NJ wins it by a mile but the Oilers just became a playoff contender with this trade. Big step for them, very good defenseman they just got. Best of luck to Adam. Will miss him.

I think it was more underestimating the market price for a top pairing D.

Yup. Wingers just don't have the value around the league that quality defenseman do, even ones as skilled as Hall. Devils won the trade, but this is pretty much the market in the NHL. Quality right handed defensemen are rare as ****.
