Hall broke down the timeline of the blockbuster trade from his perspective Thursday. He claimed he's "definitely a better player than the amount I was playing" during his final weeks in Chicago.

The Taylor Hall situation was an interesting one this season and there seemed to be multiple moving parts with him.He was traded to the Carolina Hurricanes as part of a three-team deal that also involved the Colorado Avalanche.

When the Chicago Blackhawks last played the Carolina Hurricanes, Taylor Hall suited up for them. He will be on the other bench tonight after being traded to Carolina last Friday. The trade came just a few days after the former Hart Trophy winner lamented staying on with the Blackhawks beyond this season.
