Speculation: Taylor Hall scratched Friday and Saturday - trade imminent?

[RangersFan1994]

I'm going to guess the 'Yotes. All is quiet on the Avs-front scratches-wise at both levels.

Yotes are trading for Kreider with chemistry with Kreider

 

[super6646]

Hopefully out east plz.

 

[Ledge And Dairy]

There is a decent chance he just has the flu and is just out because of that. It is that time of year.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Which also would indicate that it is somewhere else than Colorado. I mean why wouldn't he sit up there in his new stadium
watching his new team? And all the Avs staff is there so where else would he be off to?

Agreed.

Could be NCAA or CHL return though.

 

[Mighty Makar]

I think it’s the Islanders or Stars.

 

[OKOptimistic]

Source close to me says it to Oilers for McDavid and Draisaitl

 

[Michoulicious]

Hall for Hayton, straight up?

 

[Spectra]

Best guess would be to the Hartford Whalers or the Quebec Nordiques. I'm hearing the return is one or more 1st round draft picks and/or one or more prospective NHL players.

I see what you did there

Because no trade has been made and the Devils aren't going to have Hall sitting in the Avs press box?

Lots of piss poor logic again here. The only worse post was "Must not be Sakic because he won't be pressured!!11!". Literally nothing to go off of here.. could be anyone.

I wasn't talking about the Avs press box. I was thinking off him not sitting with the other Devils scratches. Usually when players get traded, they rush off to pack their things and get on a plane to their new destination. Given that they are playing in Colorado, Hall wouldn't need to do that at all if he were to be traded to the Avs.

But yeah. This is all just speculation at this point.

Its a bit strange that he isn't sitting in the pressbox when a deal according to LeBrun has not been done yet, though...

If that was the case they’d just say scratched due to illness, not precautionary

 

[dasaybz]

Arizona right?

 

[AlexGretzchenvid]

Im guessing hall goes to a team no one expects

San Jose.

You think he brought his entire life with him to Colorado on this road trip?

Maybe he's flying back to NJ to pack heavier and fly back to Colorado after? Maybe he's not being traded to Colorado? Maybe he's being a diva and when he was told he was being held out, got mad and left? Maybe the Devils asked him not to be in the press box to avoid being a distraction to the team? Maybe he doesn't want to be in the press box because he would get hounded post-game?

Any of these (and more) are possible.

I just hope he gets traded somewhere warm.

 

[avsnu]

What if this is just some sort of mind game to get the Avs to up their offer.

I have a feeling this is happening

It was personal reasons for Klingberg. I’ve read he’s close friends with Lindblom.

Plus apparently it was a fake account you’re referring too. Hope you’re not trying to be a detective because you failed at it.

Nope, you'll see.

 

[Taluss]

Gonna be Habs. Just have a weird feeling

We need his coach to come out and say Taylor's been shitting his pants and puking his guts out.

 

[Foppberg]

Nope, you'll see.

 

[HOPE]

i think it's the AVS, but i have had this feeling in the past 10min, Bergevin feeling the heat, trying to save his job. if it's the case Montreal is losing the trade.

 

[Steazy Doo]

You'll see too.

You'll all see!!

 

[The Abusement Park]

Shero’s way of inflating a market that hasn’t been as big as he expected imo.
