Taylor Hall may be the most one dimensional player I've ever seen. He can be dangerous on the rush, but the moment he has to slow up and figure out how to use his team mates to setup a play he's completely lost, and his "defensive game" is well known at this point. He's like the polar opposite of Gaudreau, he uses his size and speed to enter the offensive zone and sometimes get a good shot off, but he possesses very little hockey knowledge and turns into a liability the moment he's knocked off stride. Couple that with his total lack of self preservation and I don't see his NHL career lasting all that long
