Stauffer is saying it's a straight up trade.

Really? Larsson?

The Oilers just got their newest Sekera.

There's got to be more coming from New Jersey.

I mean Larsson is nothing exciting.

This is not a good return for Hall.

It's not like he has to live in Newark. I'm guessing Manhattan will be his home.

It would be great if Taylor Hall finally scored 30 this year. Hell, shoot for 40 Taylor.

Larsson is a really good defensive defenseman, not much offense though. He does a really good job of clearing his zone. It took him a while to develop but he's a legit top 3 guy. Plus he saves the Oilers about 3.5 million bucks which is huge. But if they do sign Lucic to a 6 million dollar deal, they increase their cap by about 3.5

I hear a lot about Larsson's untapped offensive upside, but over the past four years he has 5 even-strength goals in 3500 minutes.

I mean, it's addition by subtraction to get rid of Hall and put the fear of God into the rest of the 6x6 crew, but I'd still find it hilarious if that's the best return they could get.

Trades Taylor Hall, still doesn't have a 1st defenseman. This reeks of desperation.

Eventually a couple of expansion teams will be added which will nestle the Oilers into 16th.

Sad. Halls career thus far has been entirely wasted by Oilers management.

I'm not going to lose my mind on the return too much because I don't know anything about Larsson.

Watch Lucic sign elsewhere

I like Taylor Hall's chances of finally getting that boating license now that he's off of the sinking ship.

If its a one for one deal, the Oilers just got completely fisted.

Addition by subtraction for the Oilers. They could have got a bag of pucks in return and they would still be a better team. They may miss his points but the team won't miss the back hole of leadership.

Oiler Logic:

Draft unproven winger 4th overall to replace Taylor Hall.

Trade former first overall, 60 point player......for a bottom 6 d-man.

Ahhhhhahahaaaaaaaahaaaaa

NO FREAKING GOOD!
