Seguin is somewhat of a late bloomer, but the fact of the matter is that Seguin has scored more goals than Hall this year with far less talent on his team. Probably the most interesting stat is that Seguin has almost twice as many even strength goals as Hall does (34-19). Seguin isn't a shoot first player, but he is a potential star centreman, and the Oil doesn't have that . Every team that has won it all had a great centre core, regardless of wingers, but never the other way around.
I get where people defend Seguin. Although he is what the oilers need I still think Sam gagne will develope into a solid centerman. Hall is what the oilers have lacked and that is a shoot first player. Also hall has cosistantly scored in the "O". Either would be good to get.
That's true, but you also have to take into account of the ice-time that Seguin gets. Almost every time Plymouth can score, Seguin is on the ice, whereas Windsor has the luxury of other talented players, and not have to play Hall as much. But his linemates could be a huge reason why he is doing so good, just like how Seguin's ice-time can be a huge reason also.
@Jubs10 upside? I don't see how considering taylor hall has won 2 mem cups and the mvp of the mem cup award twice. Also Hall had a good wjc whereas seguin didn't even make the team. Also hall can play centre and wing.
@Bruinology Boston made a great move getting Torontos 1st pick there a playoff team thats only getting stronger with the pick and Torontos not a playoff team and that pick would have gave them more leverage for a trade and they might have been able to trade for a player and move down a few spot's in the draft but they could have still had a 1# pick but a low pick though and edm. would be crazy to trade that pick i live outside of edm. and all you see in the newspapers and tv is hall not sagiun
seguin players with players with much less talent than the players that hall plays with. plus its always better to have a centre than a winger. look at toronto even, they have a really good winger in kessel but whos playing with him, bozak…its sad that bozak is the best toronto can do for kessel
@Jubs10 Not really. Seguin was born January 31, 1992 and Hall was born November 14, 1991. The difference is only about 2 and a half months. Hall has had the advantage of being born in the late year and having that extra year of experience than Seguin.

Toronto could have drafted tyler and there would be a point to go for the games. Burke has screwed the team and torontos future for 2 years
Seguin is a year younger then hall and scouts saying he has more upside then hall
@Jubs10 He is only 3 months younger
@Dpesh7 hockey development wise ie when his birthday is, hes a year behind hall
gonna be a BRUIN
How old is he?
the bruins have like three american players on their roster so what the fuck are you talking about?
the bruins need seguin.
bruins want hall

Welcome to Boston!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This kid is going to be the Number 1 Pick.
He's got the whole package.
Even if he's not, he is still a great player.

@gizz88 NUH UH UH!!! WELCOME TO EDMONTON,ALBERT, CANADA. YUP CANADA WHERE HE BELONGS!!!!!!!!!!
Welcome to Boston
@FriendlyWalrus yeahhh!!!!!!!!!!
he would have been playing for a canadian team if toronto wasnt retarded
Boston Bruins. Yeah.
Doesn't really matter. The Hawks are just going to own the NHL this year just like they did last year anyway.
I like pretending he's a Leaf

And 1 year later he's got his name on the Stanley cup
How bout that Taylor gets his name on the memorial cup and Tyler gets his name on the Stanley cup
@FriendlyWalrus I wonder how you new that.Maybe because he got drafted by the bruins before you posted the comment 1 year a go.
I remember I went to a whalers game in '08 and I remember seeing him play
I miss the whalers so much
