Chicago Blackhawks left winger Taylor Hall can be a valuable contributor to a more competitive NHL team without costing too much in a trade, writes Adam Proteau.

The Chicago Blackhawks are likely to be sellers around the NHL Trade Deadline in March. Veteran winger Taylor Hall is among the trade candidates the Blackhawks could move before the 3 PM EST deadline.

The veteran forward had hopes and right now, they’re being crushed… See what he had to say down below:

Taylor Hall is a depth player at this point in his NHL career. He isn’t the number one pick/Hart Trophy winner he once was but he can still contribute offense at a medium level. A contender with high-end scoring at the top of the lineup would love to add a guy like Hall to the middle-six.

The Blackhawks acquired Hall and now-captain Nick Foligno from the Bruins on June 26, 2023, to be a mentor and potential line mate for Connor Bedard, Chicago's No. 1 pick in the 2023 NHL Draft. Hall missed most of last season after having surgery on his right knee in November 2023 and has played up and down the forward lines this season.

Here are two early landing spots for Blackhawks winger Taylor Hall ahead of the 2025 NHL Trade Deadline in March.
