If you sign Hall and trade Gaudreau you replace your top 6 winger with a similar player AND you add a younger top 6 forward and likely other pieces.

How is that NOT an improved state?

I really don't understand the argument from some of you here. Hall and Gaudreau are a wash. You get to keep a top left winger AND other assets.

It's just simple math.
