The New York Rangers picked up winger Adam Hall in a three-team trade on Wednesday.

 

The Nashville Predators dealt Hall to the Rangers in exchange for forward Dominic Moore. The Predators then flipped Moore and prospect Libor Pivko to the Pittsburgh Penguins in exchange for a third-round pick in the 2007 NHL entry draft.

 

Both Hall and Moore have salary arbitration hearings set for Aug. 2 in Toronto and those remain set unless they sign deals with their new clubs.

 

The 25-year-old Hall had 29 points (14 goals, 15 assists) in 75 games for the Predators last season. Moore, also 25, had 18 points (9 goals, 9 assists) in 82 games with the Rangers. The 26-year-old Pivko had 69 points (12 goals, 57 assists) in 69 games with Milwaukee of the AHL last season.

I liked Moore but we got a very good deal on this one, Hall is very good on the powerplay and go along with Shanny and Jags. We should be a very strong team this year aslong as Lundqvist can come bakck healthy

I was also a big fan of Moore, kid played with alot of heart & hustle. Hopefully this kid Hall won't be the second coming of David Oliver (for those that remember that "Power Play specialist").

It doesn't really matter...Shanny and Jags on the same power play will be enough
