Ex-Bruin Taylor Hall responds to rumours regarding him being placed on the trading block
Taylor Hall's future is uncertain in Chicago, could the Boston Bruins take advantage of his situation?
Taylor Hall was supposed to be an offensive threat and a mentor to Connor Bedard for the Chicago Blackhawks. Instead, his first season in Chicago saw him succumb to multiple injuries and miss the majority of the 2023-2024 season.
Amidst the return to the lineup in 2024-2025, the winger has found some bad news waiting for him.
But the Blackhawks have other plans, as DailyFaceOff's Frank Seravalli has mentioned that the Blackhawks could trade Hall later in the season.
The statement from Hall:
«I'd love to stay and be part of this,» Hall said. «I've moved around quite a bit, maybe more than I would've liked, but it's led me to some amazing experiences. I really like this team, the organization, and the group of guys we have. I think I can be a good piece for us as we keep growing.»
This could prove to be good news for the Bruins as they're short on top-six forwards, but will GM Don Sweeney part with any assets to acquire the former Bruins forward?
In 2021-2022, during his time in Boston, he was a 60-point winger(20 G, 41 A), and showed flashes of the Hart Trophy winner he once was in 2019.
Of course, there are some realities that Sweeney has to face, as he has a history of injuries.
The Blackhawks saw Hall play 10 games in 2023-2024, scoring 4 points( 2 G, 2 A), and he'd love to stick around a rebuilding team.
Hall has played 9 games this season and scored 3 points( 2 G, 1 A) with the team. But nothing is certain, and neither is his future in the Windy City.
But at this point, after an ACL injury and a slow start to the season, could he find himself in a new uniform in the next few months?
If so, why not Boston?
The 2024-25 NHL trade deadline will be on March 7, 2025. Players traded or claimed off waivers after that date will not be eligible to play in the 2025 Stanley Cup playoffs.
