Former Edmonton Oilers star finds himself benched
Former Edmonton Oilers superstar Taylor Hall finds himself in the Blackhawks dog-house, getting benched for the first time this season.
The Chicago Blackhawks are having an extremely disappointing start to the 2024-25 campaign. Although the team is in the middle of a franchise rebuild, the team can't seem to generate any offensive firepower.
Currently sitting at a 6-10-1 record, the Chicago Blackhawks have managed just 5 goals in the past 5 games, and fans are ready to press the proverbial panic button on the season.
According to Liam McCormick of Oilers Daily, Hall is coming back from an ACL injury that he had surgery on last season, and it's notoriously a difficult injury to come back from. Still, Hall believes that he should be in the lineup, and isn't happy with the decision tonight.

For most of the season, Taylor Hall has been on the Blackhawks first line alongside superstar Connor Bedard, yet Connor Bedard has only managed 3 goals in 17 regular season games.
Now, the Chicago Blackhawks are in a desperate situation, and fans are urging GM Kyle Davidson to trade Hall while he still retains some value.
Hopefully, this message by head coach Luke Richardson will spark Taylor Hall into an offensive groove.
