Both the Nuge with his vision and distribution ,and Eberle sick hands with good shot, will be in the league for a long time. Hall just reminds me of a one trick amazing junior player pony. There is nothing sneaky about his game that would confuse NHL level defence men, and the "bull in the china shop " routine isn't scaring anyone

I'll give Yakupov about a 9 on that one. Garbage play.

Well that's the thing, there really is no player like him on the Oilers and very few types of him in the NHL. He is a unique hockey player while there are many cerebral guys like Eberle and Nuge in the league.

Yeah, I just see Nuge and Eberle helping your team in a bunch of different ways thru not only goals, but skillful passing and quarterbacking beautiful plays.


If Hall isn't scoring you could replace what he brings by a 4th line players with decent speed

I can't stand Oilers fans obsession with Ladislav Smid. I do not want him at 3-4 mil like some of the media is suggesting he'll make for being 'the top defenseman in free agency'.

Plays like that is why Hall is the best Oiler.

Is Devan Dubnyk for real?

He has been playing pretty good for the Oil this season.

Man Luongo looks great. I really wish he was traded to the Leafs or Panthers. Just far away from here.

I don't get why Oiler fans seem to love Hall the most out of their kids. I think he might be the worst of their big 5

I agree. Probably because he was the first of the endless string of 1st overalls.
