Confirmed Trade: [NJD/EDM] Taylor Hall for Adam Larsson

[Jozay]

Dmen develop slower than forwards, so this could end up being a very fair deal.

 

[SirPaste]

1 for 1? That's insane Edmonton

 

[SladeWilson23]

Devils win this trade value wise by a mile but god damn will I miss Adam Larsson. Enjoy Oilers fans.. he's a ****ing good one.

Devils defense is now worse than the Oilers by a country mile.. poor Schneids.

Agreed. I do not like this trade at all.

 

[The Gongshow]

Dang I knew D-men were expensive these days but wow

 

[Raspewtin]

Larsson is good for sure but not trade for Hall good...

 

[Boud]

This is unreal, I still can't believe this is happening.

 

[Panthers Rock]

Traded the #1 and #2 of the '10 draft

Now the top 6 from the 2010 draft have all been traded, how about that.

1 Taylor Hall (LW)
2 Tyler Seguin (C)
3 Erik Gudbranson (D)
4 Ryan Johansen (C)
5 Nino Niederreiter (LW)
6 Brett Connolly (RW)

 

[Canucks LB]

well Chia just one upped Benning haha... Bennings turn now to do something bad again

Gudbranson trade looks pretty damn good now

 

[MardyBum]

Straight up? Wow. Shouldve been able to get more

 

[AuraSphere]

Hall is the 2nd best LW in the game outside of Ovechkin. Can't believe this is his value

 

[irunthepeg]

Chiarelli taught Benning and Sweeney everything they know

Woooooooooow

 

[orby]

This is a disaster of a trade, especially because Lucic is a clear downgrade from Hall

 

[Young Lions*]

Oil fans eating lots of crow right now.

I think this trade will help both teams in long run

There's no accounting for having an drooling idiot for a GM.

 

[NYVanfan]

so, is it possible Hall was part of a chemistry problem?
dont see how this makes sense

you'd think Eberle or even Yak plus would get Larsson

you'd think Hall could get Subban!

 

[George Binks]

Wow, really wish Anaheim could of got him

 

[Lemieuxs]

Hahaha. Edmonton, you just got "Shero'd"

 

[JurassicTunga]

So bad for the Oilers. Nice job Chiarelli. Seguin now Hall.

 

[MikeModano9]

Absolutely horrendous day to be an Oil fan.

 

[Hictor Vedman*]

Holy massive trade Batman.

NJ got a huuuuuuuuge piece back.

 

[Glennsoe]

NHL 16 type of insane trade...

 

[CherryToke]

Fans from around the League have been saying, for years, that the Oil forwards are over-rated and over-valued.

Looks like we were right.

Hall is the one guy that wasn't overrated. Devils got a beauty.

 

[TGWL]

Larsson hasn't done enough for this trade to be straight up. That's not to say he doesn't make the Oilers better, and won't be the 1st pairing D-man for them, but absolutely terrible not to get anything else in this deal. If Larsson had another solid year, and this was in the offseason next year, I'd say sure straight up.

 

[syc]

Oilers get fleeced lol!

How can that team be soooooooo badly run even after they cleaned house. Oilers shouldve gotten two first along with Larsson!

This is great!

 

[Maukkis]

Hall for Brodie+ looks really funny now. As does Hall for Trouba/Hamonic++.

But anyway, that will help the Oilers as a team, like it or not.

 

[steepedtea]

you could call this a grand larssony.
