What if
For Montrealers June 29th, 2016 will be fondly remembered or utterly reviled by other fans as the day they traded PK. As another habs season sputters down to an embarrasing end, maybe we should look at the trade from another perspective. What Montrealers probably forgot but Oilers fans surely remember was June 29th was the same day they traded Taylor Hall. In fact Subban and Hall were traded minutes apart. I want to try and look at this from another angle and wonder what if they had...traded PK for Taylor. I have to admit that other players would probably have been included in this scenario. For example, I could see Klefbom or Nurse added in the trade as the habs would need a defenceman after the loss of Subban. The Oilers may have asked for a draft choice or maybe a defensive minded defenceman like Emelin. Since their trades, Subban and Hall had a mediocre 2016-2017 regular season because of injury. Hall missed ten games and it took him awhile to get going on a team with few stars
