Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet: Taylor Hall trade talks are intensifying, with one GM saying “He’s trying” with regards to Devils GM Ray Shero.
The Devils have let it be known that they want first-round draft picks and/or high-end prospects who are NHL ready. They are open to putting re-signing and/or playoff conditions on a deal.
The Devils need defensemen. The Colorado Avalanche would be a good trade partner. Some teams feel the Arizona Coyotes would make a serious offer. The Dallas Stars and St. Louis Blues would be among the interested teams. The Edmonton Oilers would be interested by may not be willing to give up the assets that the Devils would want.
