I'm actually impressed how increasingly mature Hall appeared to be, as his first year or so went on. His interviews were much better, he appeared much more articulate and thoughtful in his answers.

There were a lot of jokes/stories in Windsor about some of the stuff that he would say, a Drew Doughty type of thing.
Hall has took on a leadership role and is well respected in the locker room by his teammates. With Horcoff traded, it's widely speculated that Hall will be the captain this season and rightfully so. It's his team (he's the best player) and he does a lot in the community and in the room. Horcoff took Hall/Eberle under his wing in year 1. It will be interesting in Dallas because I am sure Horcoff will take Seguin aside and tell him to smarten up, and show him how to be a leader.
