Monahan may be a two way stud player and not sure how you can say that Hall doesn't make guys around him better but Monahan does.
You may prefer to keep Monahan and that is fine but it is nowhere close to crazy to take Hall over Monahan unless looking at it with huge homer glasses.

I don't think Hall will ever make players around him better. I do think Monahan will. I just think Monahan will end up being a better, more important player. Hall is going to join the Flames anyways when he's tired of being a loser Oiler and want's to play on Monahan's wing. He will be a good piece for our championship team.
It's crazy to me in the sense that this team really needs some home grown players, and Monahan is the perfect model for it. You need to keep him. Honestly wouldn't trade him for most star centers in the league outside of Jonathan Toews. Because I think when he's 25, he will be Jonathan Toews.
