Taylor Hall Begins His Reigning MVP Campaign

Taylor Hall is a New Jersey Devil, and he is the reigning, defending Most Valuable Player in the NHL this season. It’s never happened to this franchise, so we don’t know how this works. Most of us thought it would come with some extra nationally televised games, but either way we get to enjoy this season.

Hall will once again be the star on this team. He’s playing for his next contract this season, so he might play even higher above his head than he did last season. He’s trying to make eight figures per season kind of money. This could be the best season to watch in Devils history.

Not sure what the Devils have planned to celebrate Hall’s accomplishments, but I’d have to imagine it’s something. I doubt it happens this week, but his campaign does begin this week.
