He has one play off round of experience so no big attraction there. Seems like more than a couple of Flames mid level players have to be let go for zip to afford him. Let 1 go okay, but 3 guys walk for no return? To get Hall?

Guadreau and Tkachuk are both talented natural LWs. Maybe Gaudreau does get traded and opens the door but you know most teams want cap for cap in a trade. I do like Halls game when he's going but at best 7-8 mill for 2-3 years ? He's still the prize of free agency and likely won't sign for 6 mill or less. I ain't seeing it and don't care if he's from Calgary and wants to come home.
You need to google Taylor Hall and look a little closer and stop spewing these myths.

Taylor Hall has only missed significant time in one season out of the last 5.

82
73
76
34
65 before COVID hit, on pace for 78

Injury prone is a lie.
