Nah. They both prefer to carry the puck. Think they would be much better if they carried their own line.

2 MVP quality players carrying the top 6

This would be the smart lineup unfortunately we don’t have a smart coach.

I'm sure for Hall to sign here he was guaranteed to play with Eichel....my guess is he's betting on a great year like Skinners first with Jack and then bolt for the big contract and greener pastures. No way the Sabres can afford Hall with new contracts for Reinhart and Dahlin coming up. It's not feasible to put half or more of your cap space in 5 players (Eichel, Skinner, Hall, Reinhart and Dahlin) and not mentioned the wasted 6 in Okposo.
JMO but I think Dadonov would have been a better option then Hall.
