As for Hall...playing on the second line in Boston looks to be a decent fit. He may have chosen wisely here.
His time in the AHL was after they signed him.

I thought he was a poor investment at the time. I bet there were other hockey people a lot smarter than me who felt the same.

My point is that it is not all Feaster here. Treliving doubled down on him.
