Taylor Hall Next Testing CHL Top Prospects 2010

[gregf1995]

Is he a good skater because he's bow legged?

[OviHockey1]

His laces are around his skate ankle.....?

[TheRaunchyTofu]

Hall is different than all the other #1 overall snipers/scorers since 2004. He is a magnificent skater, he has quick feet, he has a pair of great hands, he has a pretty good shot, and he's good so much intensity. He is a Sniper, Playmaker, and a Power Forward bundled together.

[evanderlazer]

He's going to be just as good as Stamkos in a few years.

Taylor Hall is the most clutch junior hockey player in CHL history

OHL playoff MVP, 2 time memorial Cup MVP

12 points in 6 world junior championship games (2nd most by a draft eligible canadian, better than stamkos, crosby, 2nd only to Tavares)

scored 1 goal, 2 assists in that overtime loss to U.S.A.

He has Conn Smythe potential, Eberle is pretty clutch too.

Those 2 will dominate in the playoffs.

[Nickmyboyfriendjonas]

@evanderlazer I agree! He has great possibility to just as good as Stamkos, maybe better. Even though Eberle got more of a scoring touch, i think Hall's determination and speed might make him the best player in the long run. But who knows, they're both great!

[bhyggen11]

those who are against Hall's skill are messed. this is his first year in the NHL and until you play at that level, shut the hell up. tons of talent will pour out from this kid, its just gonna take some adjusting to the NHL.

[lbomb8]

what an absolutely beautiful skater. i'm sorry if that sounds gay. but, shit.

[OmegAUYA]

hes a shit skater though spooner is by far a better skater faster and better skill

[steven4rmnewyork]

yeah great job you went #1 to the oilers haven't done jack shit for them, your ass will be sent down eventually to get the proper training your no where near what tavares did in his rookie year or stamkos in his second and never will be haha over rated canadian hype yeah its gr8 when you score against less experienced player sin the ohl compared to the nhl

[gerardchampagne]

@steven4rmnewyork haha wow...that comment made you really sound like an idiot. Stamkos put up 23 goals his first year, taylors got 20 goals, with 25 games left...

[fgovern]

do u guys think hes going to put up 50g a yr? also how does he compare to ovi and sid? is he a rare player?

[HeyItsWill12]

@fgovern No he won't. Maybe one year but not often. He's no where near Crosby Ovechkin or Stamkos but he is definitely talented that is no secret. He is rare because he's an amazing skater, knows where to be on the ice and can score goals like the best, however if he's gonna succeed he's gotta score. Take this from someone who had the pleasure of playing with and against him.

[Nickmyboyfriendjonas]

@HeyItsWill12 Hes just turned 19, hes also on a way worst team then Crosby, Ovechkin, or Stamkos. I wouldn't totally cross him out yet, give him some time to develop, who knows what could happen. Although Eberle got more of a scoring touch, Hall got the determination, you can see it, Hall wants to do his best, and because he is young he gets frustrated when he doesn't. He has incredible determination, and did you guys see him as a rookie get second fastest skater in the All stars skill comp?

[cheeko1]

edmonton oilers stacked with crazy forwards

[IanNFisher11]

He looks solid I'm excited to see what he can do this season.

[souldude81]

At this point Jordan Eberle can out skate Hall in every way BUT Hall will get better. Imagine what the Oilers will be like to play against once these guys get their NHL legs?

[91canucks]

is it just me or does he look really slow?

[r2native]

His foot speed isn't the best. But It should improve before the NHL.

[TheBlackhawkSniper]

He's special - I can't wait to see him in the league next year! We play the Oilers in the 12th game of the regular season at the UC. (And I know there is a chance he won't be going to the Oilers, No need for stupid comments)

[psylocke757]

T.Hallsy ftw.

[BuLLeTx87]

hes gonna go to boston..seguin is more of playmaker who can score and thats what edmonton needs...someone who can score and help others score...bostons got perfectly fine centers now..hall is the goal scorer they need to replace kessel

[evanderlazer]

@BuLLeTx87 boston is picking 2nd, Hall just came off winning his 2nds straight memorial cup mvp, in the windsor vs plymouth series a month ago, hall had 3 goals, 5 assists in 4 games, Seguin had 0 points, in the CHL top prospects game, Seguin had nothing Hall had 4 points in 2 games. Seguin is more filled out than Hall is, according to the NHL combine, Hall is 10 lbs lighter and has broad shoulders, he has more room to grow

[evanderlazer]

@BuLLeTx87 in other words, you shoul be looking up tyler seguin videos because Edmonton is pretty much guarenteed to pick Hall, any talk of it cold go either way is just tambellini blowing smoke in case boston wants to pay out the ass to move up one spot for 1st like their own 1st and colborne which I doubt chiarelli would be willing to pay. Prepare for Seguin thats it.

[BuLLeTx87]

@evanderlazer true but i would love to see hall go to boston..for god sake he wears #4 to honor bobby orr haha..i just feel like seguin is the center that edmonton needs now...but we'll see what happens. bruins arent y favorite team but i do like them. DEVS all the wayy

[jansty85]

This kid is so sick

[Luigi555551]

@jansty85 have you been to his games he breaks 2 sticks every game with anger, what a waste of money, and what a baby, hes a great player though

[geeLove17]

@Luigi555551 LOL. why do you care so much if he breaks 2 sticks every game ? you`re not the one who`s gonna pay for the stick he breaks.

[timmyboy1970]

@jansty85 A doctor should give him some medicine to make him better.

[ymember3]

In a few year the oilers are going to be one of the top teams in the NHL. I promise you right now

[flipgam3over]

@ymember3

Probably true with all that talent, only reason I like Olies now is cause I know Hall, but leafs will forever be my team :(

[m420carbine4]

@ymember3 give us a number

[Nickmyboyfriendjonas]

@ymember3 agree!

[easye3288]

I look forward to watching him in Black N Gold next season :-D

[DallasH717]

@easye3288 you cant possibly think edmonton will pass him up? it doesnt matter if seguin is a better fit they will change the team for hall because his talent and scoring ability are too great for any team to pass up, especially edmonton. so sorry to burst your bubble but you should be looking forward to seguin in black and gold, not hall

[GoCanadaVancouver10]

@DallasH717

yah im with you

[TheAcdc97]

@DallasH717 he is going to be num 1 but i would like him to go to boston

[DallasH717]

@TheAcdc97 yeah all boston fans want him as well as edmonton fans haha. the questions are how much is boston willing to give up to move from 2 to 1 to get hall? and are the oilers even willing to move the pick and take seguin instead of hall?

[HARjomaxHAR]

dwat828 i want what ur smoking man,did you not see the oilers get the 1st pick hahaha,you get seguin!!!

[dwat828]

going to BEANTOWN! WELCOME TO BOSTON HALL!

[hockey21383]

he looks slow

[Vile223]

um ya this kids going to Edmonton. either this kid or tyler seguin is going #1

[HARjomaxHAR]

tough luck this dude be in oil country!!!

[Hoosachockey1]

i cant wait for him to be in a bruins uni next season..... thanks for the pick toronto... have fun with phil kessel hahahaha

[rockin429]

[corona73]

[kovalev274life]

[castorpollux7]

[kovalev274life]

[redwings1310]
