The problem with the Hall and Eberle (and even Yakupov) trades is they were already ruined and were never going to contribute in Edmonton. It took being kicked out for Hall to straighten himself out, and so far he only has one spectacular season in NJ. The Larsson trade could have been better but they needed help on defense badly.
The thing with the Reinhart trade it's was *entirely* self inflicted. Then there Lucic signing and then Draisaitl overpayment and they were between a rock and a hard place. And it looks*fantastic* on them.
