Hall Signs 7-year Extension with Edmonton

Hall and Seguin

Taylor Hall signed a 7-year $42 million contract extension with Edmonton on Wednesday. The signing places the 2010 #1 overall pick in an Oilers uniform through the 2019-20 season. It’s been a battle of Hall vs. Seguin since the beginning and it should be interesting to see if Bruins GM Peter Chiarelli will lock up the Bruins forward sooner rather than later. Seguin posted an incredible season last year, following his Stanley Cup win during his rookie year. Although the upcoming season is still pending, Seguin should be on track to accomplish much more on the ice. With Hall pulling a 7-year extension, it’ll be interesting to see if Seguin posts the same kind of deal in the near future.
