“We are thrilled to be adding players of Nick’s and Taylor’s caliber to our organization,” Hawks general Manager Kyle Davidson said in a statement. “The two bring a wealth of experience and leadership that will strengthen not only our forward group, but aid in the development of our entire roster.”In exchange, the Bruins received defensive prospects Alec Regula and Ian Mitchell from the Hawks in the draft-week trade.
Taking on Hall, 31, clears $6 million off the Bruins’ books over the next two seasons, the remainder of his contract. The Hawks have $31.6 million in projected cap space. Hall won the Hart Tropy in 2018 after recording 39 goals and 54 assists for the New Jersey Devils. The Hawks also retain the rights to negotiate with the 35-year-old Foligno, a UFA.
