Even with second line void, Taylor Hall enters new year with long-term stability
In his introductory zoom call with the Boston media, Taylor Hall admittedly discussed how his confidence was lacking. After all, his 37-game tenure with the Buffalo Sabres resulted in a mere 19 points (2 goals, 17 assists).
Hall gambled on himself inking a one-year deal with Buffalo during the 2020 off-season following stints in Edmonton, New Jersey, and Arizona. By early April, the 2010 top overall pick and 2018 Hart Trophy recipient arrived in his fifth home — in a trade involving fellow teammate Curtis Lazar in exchange for Anders Bjork and a 2021 second round draft pick — itching for a confidence boost before hitting the open market again in the summer.
