1) The twitter pictures of Hall clubbing it up in Edmonton, even on nights they are blown out on home ice. You'd think he'd be more broken up about his performance.
2) The well circulated rumours of Hall's standing reservations at certain hotels in Edmonton
3) The fact that a disproportionate amount of his goals seem to occur once the team is down more than 2 goals - leading me to think he's picking them up when the other team has taken their foot off the gas
4) HIs reckless defensive play, which only involves him trying to get a head start on another offensive breakaway.

Don't get me wrong, the kid can score, but I don't think he has ANY idea what it takes to be a winner on or off the ice in the NHL at the current time.
