Two firsts, a prospect, and a current second line caliber player? Is that a good starting point?
Does Hall's trade set some sort of bench mark in terms of value of offensively talented forwards?
It's summer so what the hell.


Firstly, hell no to the Hall trade being a benchmark. If Brad traded Johnny for a borderline top pair d-man, Calgary would implode. If you are doing 1 for 1, it has to be a top tier guy like OEL or Tarasenko. Trade him to Philly? Voracek I guess, but it better be Voracek +.
