Not sure why MIN would ever take Staal back at this point. They gave him away for a guy that basically lives on IR and they knew that when they made the trade. The BOS trade is intriguing, but I don't see why BOS would need to give up DeBrusk AND a 1st. Hall is nowhere close to the player he once was and he's worth considerably less than he was when the Devils dealt him to the Yotes last season. If BUF retains half Hall's cap hit, I can see BOS giving up a 1st and maybe a conditional 2nd or a B prospect. Maybe I'm overvaluing DeBrusk, but I think he's worth more than a prospect that's probably never gonna become an impact player in the NHL.
