He was traded to New Jersey by Edmonton for defenseman Adam Larsson on June 29, 2016, and had 208 points (76 goals, 132 assists) in 211 games in four seasons with the Devils. Last season, Hall missed the final 47 games after he had arthroscopic surgery in February to remove fragments from his left knee.
"Like a lot of guys on our team here in New Jersey, it wasn't a great year, but I feel healthy, I feel confident that I can help any team that I was going to join," he said. "The puck hasn't gone in as much as I would like, but hopefuly that can turn around."
Hall became eligible to sign a contract of up to eight years with the Devils on July 1.
"I've been open to anything and I haven't closed the book on signing with any team prior to July 1," Hall said. "Talking to John Chayka, that's something we can discuss as time goes on, but I think both sides are really comfortable with just playing and letting the contract stuff sort itself out. Really, that's not what I'm focused on. I just want to come and help win games, get to the playoffs, and do some damage there."
New Jersey, which fired John Hynes as coach Dec. 3, replacing him with Alain Nasreddine, hosts the Anaheim Ducks on Wednesday (7 p.m. ET; MSG+, PRIME, NHL.TV).
