Taylor Hall seems to be fitting in nicely with his new team, the Carolina Hurricanes. He has now played two games after being traded by the Chicago Blackhawks and just recorded his first point in his second game that came against the New York Rangers.

Let’s go back to the start of the entry draft era in 1979 and see how many top picks can compete with Hall’s growing jersey collection.

The Chicago Blackhawks teamed up with the Colorado Avalanche and Carolina Hurricanes on a monumental three-team trade earlier this week, sending forward Taylor Hall to the Hurricanes and receiving a draft pick in return.

As Chicago's rebuild moves forward, the three-team blockbuster trade is about the major details, not the minor ones.

Chicago Blackhawks forward Connor Bedard didn’t hold back his disappointment after learning Taylor Hall had been traded on Friday. The Hawks sent Hall to the Carolina Hurricanes as part of a blockbuster three-team deal in which they only landed a third-round pick in return for Hall. Chicago also retained 50% of Rantanen's salary in the deal.

As the third wheel in Friday’s blockbuster deal involving the Colorado Avalanche, Carolina Hurricanes, and superstar forward Mikko Rantanen, the Chicago Blackhawks played kingmaker, agreeing to take on half of Rantanen’s salary cap hit in exchange for a third-round draft choice.

The Hawks will receive a third-round draft pick, but the Hurricanes' acquisition of Mikko Rantanen from the Avalanche is the far bigger part of the trade Friday, per reports.
