I don't agree with your viewpoint here....if I'm not mistaken, we gave up NOTHING to acquire Hall. Sure, maybe he didn't earn Pegula's money for a partial season, but it was only for 1 year (not several), plus we had the cap space to spend it. When he traded him, there was no salary retention. GMKA took a chance on a player who was still productive and not too old, in hopes his presence would improve the team. It didn't work out, maybe because of the horrible coaching we had. I think you would be more displeased if Hall was still here making $6MM a year for another few years.

Something else I wonder about is that we no longer have a Sam Reinhart type net front presence. I miss his ability to deflect shots. I don't know if we have somebody with that same knack.

6 weeks on Miller?!?! Wow, not much time between a possible return date and the trade deadline.

Still remember that evening. I think I was watching Ed Kilgore at the time. I can't remember his words, but to me it struck me as being something like "hold on to your butt". I remember some thinking that losing Derek Smith was going to be a big deal (not really though). Breaking up the tandem of Edwards and Sauve was a bigger deal to me. McCourt was the headliner, but obviously Foligno had the biggest impact. Brent Peterson was a good face-off guy for sure.
