Great article on Hall heading into the season. Some of the quotes from Hall that stand out to me:
"When I watch games from myself and when I look at last season overall, I feel that there are still things that I can improve on, not only defensively, which is obvious and a lot of people can say that, but still offensively as well.
"Also, not giving the puck away as much is a big part of my game that I need to work on."
"I'm the same weight as last year, but I'm much stronger. I lifted heavier weights this year and that should help me in those battles. I worked a lot on getting better body position."
"I really wasn’t playing well defensively to start the season last year, and it really did hinder my game offensively. I realized that what worked for me last year was playing really good defence."
"The slow start of last year, as much as people want to blame the goalies and stuff, I think I was a big part of that"
I think this interview shows how Hall is growing up and maturing right in front of our eyes. I love it that he's still looking for ways to improve his overall game and even studying his game films to see how he can improve. I also like how he blamed last season's poor start on himself as well as admitting to trying to play better defensively and not turning the puck over as much. I'm very excited to see what Hall can do this year. Hopefully other players like Eberle, RNH, and Yak have the same mindset as Hall heading into this season.
