In that case, Kessel. But mostly because Hall is fragile as hell and is pretty much a lock to miss 20 games a year.
And BigTuna - you can't really argue against the idea that Kessel is really worth less than $7 million when the only team that was really interested in was interested only below $7 million. Otherwise, Toronto would not be eating 15% of his salary.
Even then, all that netted you was a non-guaranteed first round pick, a meh defensive prospect and a decent forward prospect. Even then, you had to give up a 2nd and a couple spare parts to get it done.
