Taylor Hall unplugged: Devils winger on frustrating 2018-19, his future, Kawhi Leonard and Patrick Mahomes

Few NHL players have ridden the highs and lows of their careers quite like Taylor Hall has. Edmonton's No. 1 overall pick in the 2010 draft was traded -- infamously, one-for-one for Adam Larsson -- to the New Jersey Devils in 2016. The move made Hall bitter, especially the following season, when the Oilers became a 100-point team and the Devils sat dead last in the Eastern Conference.

Things took a turn two years later: New Jersey emerged as a frisky playoff team as Hall won the Hart Trophy as league MVP.
