5 Players Key for a Successful New Jersey Devils Season

Taylor Hall:

Taylor Hall a key player to the Devils success this season? Is the sky blue? Is the earth round? Is hockey the greatest sport known to man? All of these questions have obvious answers to them and yes Taylor Hall is the biggest key to the Devils success this season.

Devils fans were cheated last season only getting a portion of Taylor Hall after his MVP season. People that are reading this are intelligent enough to know Taylor Hall is a huge part of New Jersey having a big year and to start turning things around.

A guy of Taylor Hall’s magnitude can bring to a lineup and energize a team. This player single-handedly willed a bad team into the playoffs in 2018. It was truly a remarkable thing to watch. Imagine what he can do with a supporting cast?

We all worry about Hall and his injury history, that’s a given, but if he is able to stay in the lineup and maintain that MVP level of play it will be such a boost to this entire locker room from the top all the way to the parking attendants at The Rock. He is that big of an intangible, there is no doubt. As the year unfolds, there is, of course, the issue at hand of a contract extension and that could be a distraction if things are not going well for the team. That is another reason for Hall being a major part of this year’s success because as Taylor goes, so goes the Devils and therefore so goes (or stays) Taylor Hall as a New Jersey Devils. Time will tell.
