After listening to TSN’s hockey insider Darren Dreger last night mentioning that Ray Shero, Taylor Hall, and Darren Ferris (Hall’s agent) were “gaining traction over the weekend.” One of the many things that come to mind is how will the New Jersey Devils look not only if, but when Taylor Hall signs on the dotted line.
To think of a contract situation, Hall could fetch a contract greater than Mitchell Marner’s. Hall however might command near Auston Matthew money. Our guesstimate is in the rink of $88-96 million over an eight-year extension.
