Hall is a good player who got molded to embrace losing for over half a decade without any strong leadership on the team for his whole tenure, and had to live with 2 years of Eakins and his swarm defence. He was never taught the NHL game properly. Yet he is still a + player despite 6 years of Oilering.
We all know the issues, but he was often the hardest working Oiler by far. I've seen far worse lazy play by Eberle. Most of the problems with the Oilers were always that they had no defense whatsoever.
Devils are rebuilding, but they always may surprise. They have a very structured system, and one that Hall may turn out to thrive in.
