Hurricanes' Taylor Hall: Won't play Thursday
Rotowire
Hall (illness) won't play Thursday versus the Blackhawks.
Hall will miss his first game against his former team following last Friday's blockbuster trade that sent him to the Hurricanes. The winger has one helper over two games with Carolina so far. The Hurricanes will be forced to play a man short, as Sebastian Aho (illness) is also out while Jack Roslovic (illness) will return.

Hurricanes' Taylor Hall: First helper with new team
Rotowire
Hall logged an assist and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 4-0 win over the Rangers.
This was Hall's second game in the Hurricanes' lineup. He slotted in on the second line and earned a helper on Andrei Svechnikov's opening tally just 56 seconds into the game. Moving from Chicago to Carolina should help Hall's offense by virtue of having a better supporting cast. He's at 25 points, 82 shots on net, 31 blocked shots, 26 hits and a minus-13 rating over 48 appearances this season. Hall is expected to see mainly middle-six minutes and power-play time as a Hurricane.

Hurricanes' Taylor Hall: Dealt to Carolina in blockbuster
Rotowire
Hall was traded to the Hurricanes from the Blackhawks as part of a three-team deal Friday, Emily Kaplan of ESPN reports.
The Avalanche are the third team in the deal, and the Blackhawks will receive their own 2025 third-round pick (traded in a previous deal) in exchange for retaining 50 percent of Mikko Rantanen's salary. The rest of the trade includes Rantanen joining Hall in Carolina while the Avalanche received Martin Necas, Jack Drury, a 2025 second-round pick and a 2026 fourth-round pick. Hall obviously won't be the focus of this trade, but he's a potential top-six winger that should benefit from not being the man in Carolina. He has 24 points over 46 outings with the Blackhawks this season. It's also possible Hall ends up on the fourth line, where he was playing at the end of his Chicago tenure, though the balance of the Hurricanes' offense should help him play more consistently.

Blackhawks' Taylor Hall: Late scratch Friday
Rotowire
Hall (undisclosed) won't play Friday versus the Lightning, Charlie Roumeliotis of WGN Radio reports.
The Blackhawks announced Seth Jones would miss the game with an illness, but they did not specify the reason for Hall's absence initially. With Hall sitting out, Patrick Maroon (back) is likely to play or Chicago will be forced to play short by one.

Blackhawks' Taylor Hall: Pots goal in win
Rotowire
Hall scored a goal on two shots in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Golden Knights.
Hall ended a seven-game goal drought, during which he had just two assists, when he scored late in the first period. The 33-year-old winger has been listed on the fourth line in recent games, though it's a veteran trio alongside Ryan Donato and Patrick Maroon that can perform better than a typical fourth line. For the season, Hall has nine goals, 23 points, 81 shots on net and a minus-17 rating through 45 appearances. He's in the final campaign of his current contract and could be a trade option this season, though he has a partial no-trade clause (10-team no-trade list).

Blackhawks' Taylor Hall: Six points in last five games
Rotowire
Hall scored a goal in Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the Blues in the Winter Classic outdoor game.
He wired a power-play goal late in the first to make the game 2-1, but Chicago never got any closer. Hall is starting to warm up with points in four of his last five games (one goal, five assists). With any consistency, Hall will likely be a trade target for a contender seeking depth for a Cup run. You may want to stash him at some point in the next few weeks in preparation, as his situation is guaranteed to improve with a move.

Blackhawks' Taylor Hall: Earns two more assists
Rotowire
Hall registered two assists, three shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Wild.
Hall helped out on the first and last goals of the game, but the Blackhawks didn't do enough in between. This was his second two-assist effort in a row, and he's earned four multi-point efforts with a total of five goals and seven helpers over his last 14 appearances. The winger has just 18 points through 34 outings overall, but his recent performance is a level of offense that can help in most fantasy formats. Hall has added 67 shots on net, 24 blocked shots, 20 hits and a minus-8 rating this season.

Blackhawks' Taylor Hall: Two helpers in Saturday's loss
Rotowire
Hall picked up two assists in Saturday's 6-4 loss to the Flames.
The veteran winger had a hand in tallies by Connor Bedard in the second period and Tyler Bertuzzi in the third. Hall remains somewhat inconsistent and dependent on shifts with Bedard for his offense, but over the last seven games he's collected two goals and six points with 14 shots on net and a plus-2 rating,

Blackhawks' Taylor Hall: Status uncertain for Tuesday
Rotowire
Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times reports that Hall (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision Tuesday against the Capitals.
Hall was not present at Tuesday's morning skate. Joey Anderson could remain in the lineup against Washington if Hall is unable to play, but Craig Smith (back) could be an option as well. Hall has been heating up with two goals and two assists over his last four appearances.

Blackhawks' Taylor Hall: Tallies in win
Rotowire
Hall scored his seventh goal of the season Sunday in a 5-3 win over the Islanders.
Hall put Chicago up 2-1 late in the first period, and he logged two PIM, four shots, one block and a plus-1 rating in 11:21 of ice time. The veteran winger has been productive recently with two goals and two helpers over his last four games -- he had just one assist through the first four games of December. The Alberta native has compiled seven goals (one game-winner), seven helpers, two power-play points, 59 shots, 12 PIM and a minus-10 rating through 30 games.

Blackhawks' Taylor Hall: Two points in Monday's win
Rotowire
Hall scored the game-winning goal and added an assist in Monday's 2-1 win over the Rangers.
The veteran winger got a bit of a gift on the GWG, his first of the campaign, as Hall lost control of the puck while attempting to convert a 2-on-1 rush with Connor Bedard, but goaltender Igor Shesterkin inadvertently deflected it into the net. It was Hall's first goal and first multi-point performance since his hat trick Nov. 27, and he managed only one assist across the five games in between. On the season, the 33-year-old has just six goals and 12 points in 27 appearances, but if he begins to see regular shifts with Bedard again, Hall could quickly pick up his scoring pace.

Blackhawks' Taylor Hall: Puts up power-play assist
Rotowire
Hall logged a power-play assist and went minus-3 in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Blue Jackets.
Hall has three goals and a helper over his last three games, surpassing his production from the previous 13 contests. The 33-year-old winger looks to be benefiting from his turn on the top line alongside Connor Bedard, though line combinations have changed often in Chicago. Hall is up to 10 points (two on the power play), 47 shots on net, 19 blocked shots, 15 hits and a minus-8 rating over 23 appearances.

Blackhawks' Taylor Hall: Hat trick vs. Dallas
Rotowire
Hall scored a hat trick in Wednesday's 6-2 win over the Stars.
The 33-year-old winger turned back the clock with his performance, scoring his first hat trick since Dec. 5, 2013, and the fifth of his NHL career in what can only be described as one of Chicago's most complete performances of the season. Hall snapped a seven-game pointless streak with his hat trick, but he's not likely to deliver sustained production on a game-to-game basis, limiting his fantasy upside considerably.

Blackhawks' Taylor Hall: Collects pair of helpers
Rotowire
Hall notched two assists, four shots on goal and two PIM in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Ducks.
Hall helped out on first-period tallies by Isaak Phillips and Teuvo Teravainen, with the latter's goal coming on the power play. This was Hall's first multi-point effort of the season, and he now has three helpers over his last three contests. For the year, the winger has six points, 31 shots on net, 12 blocked shots, seven hits and a minus-4 rating over 13 appearances. The 32-year-old is filling a middle-six role with power-play time, but the Blackhawks' weak team offense leaves him with low upside.

Blackhawks' Taylor Hall: Sends assist Thursday
Rotowire
Hall notched an assist and two shots on goal in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Sharks.
Hall ended a three-game point drought when he helped out on a Tyler Bertuzzi goal in the first period. The 32-year-old Hall is up to four points through 11 outings this season, matching his total from 10 games last year before his campaign was cut short by a knee injury. The winger also has 26 shots on net, six hits, 10 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating in 2024-25. He may be useful in deep fantasy formats, especially those that value shots, but his middle-six role in a weak offense leaves little reason for optimism.

Blackhawks' Taylor Hall: Scores goal in defeat
Rotowire
Hall scored his second goal of the season in Tuesday's 6-3 defeat against Vancouver.
Hall fired two shots and had a plus-1 rating in 13:43 of ice time. The former first-overall pick is filling a top-six role and seeing power-play time in his 15th NHL campaign. Hall has picked up just three points through seven appearances, and it might take some time for him to find the scoresheet consistently -- the 32-year-old missed 72 regular-season games in 2023-24 due to injuries.

Blackhawks' Taylor Hall: Opens scoring Thursday
Rotowire
Hall scored a goal on three shots and blocked three shots in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Sharks.
Hall opened the scoring at 4:20 of the first period. The winger has been limited to two points through five appearances, but he's added 12 shots on net while also seeing time on the second power-play unit. Hall may still be shaking off some rust -- he was limited to 10 games last season due to a shoulder injury and a torn ACL. The 32-year-old is likely to fill more of a secondary scoring role rather than being a leader on offense at this stage of his career.
