Following the 2015-16 campaign, Hall was traded straight up for Adam Larsson. Playing for the New Jersey Devils, Hall would later win the Hart Trophy in 2017-18, an accomplishment that had to anger Oilers fans, but a .86 PPG in Edmonton in the era he played is very good. Sometimes, it is easy to forget that, and that he wasn’t blesses with a lot of talent around him.
Notably, he never had a playoff game for Edmonton, a factor that has to be taken into account, but the limited success that the Oilers did have when he was there can largely be attributed to Hall.
