The Blackhawks Pulled off One Of The Best Trades in the NHL
The Chicago Blackhawks are undergoing a rebuild and have brought in mentors for the next generation.
Thus, it's no surprise Taylor Hall was considered at one of the best trades for the team. After an excellent season in Boston, Hall will likely be paired with
Connor Bedard to help him grow.
He may not be a Hart Trophy winner from his time with the Devils and he will not be the same player he was in Edmonton, but Hall is an excellent top-six forward.
Hall's 2022-2023 season ended in 61 games with 16 goals and 36 points, which would have translated into 22 goals and 48 points in 82 games.
Despite his age, Hall is still a very capable playmaker, who will be able to help Bedard reach his full potential.
Due to the Bruins' salary cap status, the Blackhawks didn't give up anything when they acquired Hall.
Hall might be able to return to being a 60-point player if Bedard and Hall click on the same line.
With Hall, Davidson got a great deal.
