Flames are obviously done this year....how about this trade is it enough?
Flames trade:
Sam Bennett
1st round pick
Buffalo trades:
Taylor Hall (retain 50% this year)
sign and trade deal 5 yr 37.5 million.
This gives them home town boy, and gives them time to deal Johnny at the draft.

You can't retain just one year of a contract anymore and without retention Calgary would be way over the cap.

I thought they could retain the existing contract as the new contract won't kick in until next year?

Pretty sure Hall wouldn't sign that.

Hall is from Calgary so I think he’d sign that.

@Nylander Hall wants a chip, why not get traded to a contender and sign with Calgary in offseason. It just doesn’t make sense to do it now.

Hall signed with Buffalo because:
a) They offered him the most money
b) He thought he'd score a ton playing with Eichel and increase his value for next year. Boy was he wrong about that!
c) As a pending UFA with a NMC he has total control over where he goes next.

He’s been to the playoffs once in his career it’s safe to say he’s in it for the money.

@Nylander I think he thinks about both like any player. You could say the same thing about Marner and Matthew- imagine how insane the Leafs would be if they signed at 7.5 instead of 15.
