Default Taylor Hall - UFA in 2 years

I think it’s worth at least some discussion about this scenario potentially shaking down much like Tavares and I thought be interesting to see what kind of contracts are coming off the books, who could step up within our depth in order to make room for Taylor at that time and what people’s thoughts are generally about the idea of landing Taylor Hall.

Key contracts ending in 2021

Brouwer - 4.5 mill AAV
Frolik - 4.3 mill AAV
Czarnik - 1.25 mill AAV
Brodie - 4.65 mill AAV
Hamonic - 3.857 mill AAV
Stone - 3.5 mill AAV
Gillies - 700k AAV

Obviously some of those players will be extended but with the strength we are building on D I could see both Stone and Hamonic being dealt at some point for futures to open up space going towards the 20/21 offseason/UFA period.

The flames look very well positioned at this time to bring in a T Hall type contract in 2 years and should still be able to have a good cap structure going forward to be able to extend the big 3 in Gaudreau, Monahan and Tkachuk; especially with a lot of offensively skilled type forwards in the system and Lindholm/Neal on deals without clauses.

How to you guys see the potential of signing Hall?
