Sharpshooter Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 It's just amazing how far this guy has fallen off. He went from league MVP not too long ago to this. He has one goal since scoring on opening night. One. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodrigueGabriel Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Man, Bjork just seems like a nothingburger. The only way this could balance out is if Lazar was a toxic mess that BUF really wanted to dump. (But I have no reason to believe that's the case.)

Phil Posted April 12, 2021 Author Share Posted April 12, 2021 Neither Bjork or Lazar are very good at all. Then again, neither is Hall. ?\_(ツ)_/? Sent from my iPhone using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk Hall might be having the worst two year stretch of his career, but fucks sake, he's still light years better than either of those players. This trade was highway robbery. Yet another bungle in Buffalo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cash or Czech Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 So is Boston getting the first overall pick in the draft next year? Seems like a weak return, but Hall has had an abysmal season. Ended up costing Buffalo ~$6mil for 37 games, two goals and a 2nd round pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 I don't think all of the offensive talent Buffalo signed last offseason couldn't have been bigger busts. Absolute disaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morphinity 2.0 Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Pretty much this. Has he ever been the same after the serious knee injury? Did the MVP year come after that? Year before.

Sent from my iPhone using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk He's on some kind of cold streak, yeah, but I still think that if Buffalo sat on him for 10 more hours, someone ponies up more than this. His underlying numbers are surprisingly good. He's still putting up half a point a game on a team that is, quite literally, historically awful. I'm not sure he's as broken as people make him out to be - even last year he was at around .83 PPG - roughly his career average. This is literally the most Sabres possible outcome from their gamble on Hall. The only way this looks good for the Sabres is if Hall absolutely shits the bed in Boston.

And he makes a significant amount of money. The market for his services was likely light, especially with the Isles picking up Palmieri and the Panthers signing Gusev.

I don't think anyone thinks Taylor Hall is now a 2 goals in 40 games guy forever. But when making these trades for basically a 15-30 game sprint, you gotta trade based on what his value is in the moment. And that value is basically rock bottom. There's not a lot of time to unlock his true potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sod16 Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 If Hall is on a "cold streak" it's merely a bit chilly in Antarctica... A 2d round pick for the 16 games plus playoffs from an unlikely improved Hall does not represent a great deal for the Bruins. People are talking about Hall being a disaster for Buffalo, but they gave up nothing for him and just paid him for part of a shortened season on the chance he'd turn it around and find a home. Can't really say that was a bad move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
