It would hardly be the first time that a pending UFA wound up walking for nothing after a trade fell through.

Considering that the only teams likely to be bidding are those that view themselves as contenders, Hall would be a fool to veto any trade. Wherever he goes, it will be better than Buffalo. If he wants to choose his destination, he can do that during the off season.
I really don’t even know what you’re arguing. Someone commented that his luck he’d get traded to Arizona again. I said he has a NTC so if he doesn’t want to go to Arizona he doesn’t have to. That’s it. The choice more then likely isn’t going to be between Arizona or Buffalo.

Plus I’m sure they don’t just listen to one offer at a time hash out a deal, then go ask Hall if he’s ok with that.

Hey hall, you know we suck, we’re going to send you to a contender for a playoff push, here’s the 5 teams that have inquired. Which ones are you ok with?

Why do you think he got a NTC on a one year deal?

No idea why you’re jumping down my throat. He has control where he goes. Pretty simple. Just like iginla vetoing a trade at the deadline when the Flames traded him.
