Stone was more expensive acquisition wise because he came with an extension where as Hall sounds (for now) to be more in the rental category
So acquire him as a rental, see how it plays out this season and then make the tough ugly decision next offseason.
The tough decision would be paying Hall huge money and then either trading Gaudreau for assets or treating him as an own rental and then letting him potentially walk. Even then seems like both will be hard to fit cap wise both this year and next.
