Jack Hughes and New Jersey Devils 5 Greatest Offensive Seasons Ever

1. 2017-18 Taylor Hall: 39 goals, 54 assists, 93 points

Taylor Hall’s 2017-18 season is the best offensive season in New Jersey Devils history. This season had everything. Hall was THE man on the team. He carried them to the playoffs all by himself. Sure, Nico Hischier, Kyle Palmieri, and Miles Wood had good seasons, but it was Hall. Will Butcher was the team’s third-leading scorer, which should tell everyone what they need to know about this team.

Hall won the NHL’s Hart Trophy as the league MVP. It was the first and only time a Devils player won MVP. The massive point differential is the reason Hall won MVP. Hischier was 41 points behind Hall.

This was all about the moments, as well. The most famous aspect of that season was Hall’s 26-game point streak. Following the streak was amazing, even though there was a gap where Hall got injured. Only seven other players can say they recorded a point in 26 straight appearances.

Hall also had overtime goals, superstar assists, and even had the only shorthanded goal of his career. Hall did everything this season, and that’s the sole reason the Devils made the playoffs. We have not seen anything like what Hall did, but we eventually expect Hughes to overtake this mantle.
