I've been offered J. Staal straight up for T. Hall...

I know they had injury issues both of them but seems to me that Hall is even more injury prone than Staal....What would you do?


Thanks

As would I. He tends to get injured a healthy amount, but points wise and fantasy wise it isn't close.

Hall is worth all four Staals. Well maybe three.

Hall but kinda ironic that he left the game with a leg injury today.

In a keeper like the one you are in, injuries to me are not a great enough concern to warrant choosing J. Staal over Hall. This is a situation where I believe that you should be keeping Hall.

Gotta go with Hall. no doubt about it!

Taylor Hall was pulled from Friday night's 4-2 loss to the St. Louis Blues because of a leg strain but the Edmonton Oilers' star doesn't think the injury is serious and is hoping to play Sunday.Hall lost his balance and slid into the boards in the second period, felt a strain in his leg and was immediately pulled. "Stretched it out a bit, fell awkwardly and just stretched it," he said. "I tried one more shift and it didn’t feel right. When it comes to groins and hamstrings it’s better to be safe than sorry." He’s hoping to be back for Sunday’s game in Minnesota, which is about the only shred of good news that came out of the Oilers' sixth consecutive loss. Mar 2 - 10:00 AMSource: Edmonton Sun

Still worth all the Staals, but yes, ironic. No more Hall threads

Take Hall. His injuries are of the fluke variety (getting injured in fight, having a teammates skate slash his head in warm-up, etc). He doesn't get his major injuries from normal hockey plays, which is what you should be thinking of when you think of a guy's injuries. If he was getting concussed every time he was hit, then it would be something to consider. But not the type of injuries he has.
