Default Oilers trade Taylor Hall to NJ for Adam Larsson. 1 For 1.

But Rattie I'm absolutely sticking with. Larsson is a young 3/4 with some upside but zero offence.

Do you plan to argue with any of the guys I said were better? Or just "NOPE! 4TH overall is important! Yay Oilers!"


Dude I'm a Flames fan. You're just being delusional. I don't care that Larsson was taken 4th overall. In hindsight, yeah that was too early. But a defensively solid, young, RHS, top 4 defenseman is infinite more valuable than a scoring winger who still hasn't made the NHL 5 seasons after being drafted. The guy hasn't even put up 50 points in a season in the AHL. I'm baffled you want to defend that.

As for other guys on the list, I can see the debate. Some you are right on, some you are wrong on. If I can't convince you that Larsson has more value that Rattie then it's not even worth getting into.
