As speculation surrounding Taylor Hall’s future with the New Jersey Devils rises, the situation is reminiscent of Zach Parise’s final 18 months in Newark. Especially considering how this season has gone, Devils fans appear torn on whether Hall re-signs in New Jersey.
Although it’ll be seven years this summer, Parise’s departure still feels fresh in the minds of many Devils fans, who are dreading the prospect of seeing another superstar player leave for nothing. While it remains to be seen how long Taylor Hall remains a New Jersey Devil, there are some notable differences between the contract situations of him and Zach Parise worth noting.
