On “that one day in 2016” the hockey world exploded with news, excitement, and disappointment. Steven Stamkos elected to return to the Tampa Bay Lightning, Shea Weber got traded from the Nashville Predators to the Montreal Canadiens for PK Subban, and Taylor Hall was traded one-for-one from the Edmonton Oilers to the New Jersey Devils. However, thanks to the comment from Gaby Oates, I was made aware of the OTHER Taylor Hall trade that almost ended up happening; and this one was also one-for-one.

This one involves Cody Ceci of the Ottawa Senators at the time.

  1. Ottawa so dumb for not doing this trade. Should've done this trade and avoided the Duchene trade

  2. I usually do not use the word hate,but I hate question marks in hockey.I thought Hall was a poor mans Mark Messier.Seemed like he did everything in Edmonton.Then the trade for Larsson,big question mark.I would have chose Ceci because I thought he had more upside.Intangibles.Now I really do not know who would be better.Larsson has stretches of really good hockey and Cecis game is not as good as it was.Think It was a boon for New Jersey or Ottawa.That being said,It does not matter any more.The trade was done.No use crying over spilt milk.

  3. Buffalo turned down ristolainen for Taylor hall few years to and oilers were gonna trade hall for shattenkirk but he wanted to go to new york

  4. u should talk about how the bruins almost sent Tyler Seguin to the sabres for Thomas Vanek. Does This Mean The Sabres Make The Playoffs In Past Years? Would The Stars Enter The Lottery In 2015 And Potentially Get Eichel Or Even MCDAVID? who knows plz talk about it

  5. How pissed will Ottawa and fans be if 3 non top 3 teams win the top picks and instead of #2+#3+#13 they’re drafting #5-#6-#16? I’d be pissed too as a Red Wings fan, but imagine going in thinking we’ll definitely pick up 2 of Lafreniere, Rossi, Stutzle, Byfield, and maybe someone like Quinn or Sanderson if they’re lucky with the 3rd 1st round pick instead you probably miss all of those guys. They probably would still get good players because there are a lot available this year in the early part for sure, but I don’t know that they’d be so happy if that’s what they expected to get and instead end up with Raymond and Perfetti or something like that, and I don’t even know who it would be at 16.
