He may give the impression that he is more explosive through his style of play but it would parallel the Crosby/Ovie debate.

If Hall goes on to win the Memorial Cup again and plays a large role in doing so. I would have to think the Oiler's draft him. Its probably the right move at that point.

A proper rebuild happens when teams obtain top draft picks and Eberle, Svennson and Hall/Seguin are a good start. <br /><br />Why abandon ship if in the next two years you actually start winning? <br /><br />I also agree, you don'oilersinsiderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17709948595124967969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3029854105012171366.post-79239990127723970262010-05-12T10:25:22.729-07:002010-05-12T10:25:22.729-07:00@admiralmark

If you can take extra talent from Boston while still getting one of these two, I do it.<br /><br />If not, I take Taylor Hall even though I think the Oilers will take Seguin.

The last time we drafted for need we left Zack Parise on the board and ended up with Marc Pouliot and JFJ. To me its about asset management as if one looks at our roster everyone says we are deep on the wings with Eberle, Penner, Hemmer, MPSAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3029854105012171366.post-15672366715382884972010-05-12T07:46:11.617-07:002010-05-12T07:46:11.617-07:00Very Good point.

I am one of those that thought Oilers should draft Seguin not only because he was playing on a team with less of a supporting cast but also because the Center position more time then not has a major impact on the outcome of games. Because of the run Hall has had recently in the OHL playoffs its hard to ignore the impact he has had on his team playing LW either. So, i'm kinda admiralmarknoreply@blogger.com
