Taylor Hall: Not over it. Not yet, at least.
The 24-year-old reported to New Jersey Devils training camp Thursday, and was honest when asked about the trade that saw him leave the Edmonton Oilers, doubling down on critical comments he made in the summer.
"I would say the same things today," Hall said, according to The Record's Andrew Gross. "I did not step over the line. Just the way everything went down, I still hold a bit of resentment toward (the Oilers)."
Hall's looking forward to the change of scenery and excited about what he can accomplish with an underrated Devils squad.
General manager Ray Shero is hoping Hall uses the feelings he has for Edmonton as motivation.
"He's one of the many talented players in Edmonton that haven't made the playoffs. Hopefully, he'll do that."
Hall had 65 points last season, which would have led New Jersey in scoring. He's signed through 2019-20 at a $6-million cap hit.
