Taylor Hall saw only positives in signing with Sabres
Associated PressBUFFALO, N.Y. — Taylor Hall refused to buy into the negativity surrounding the Buffalo Sabres, and instead focused on the positives. “When you look past some of the smoke and some of the stuff that’s happened to the Sabres over the last couple of years, under the hood, there’s some really good pieces,” Hall said during a video call Monday, a day after signing a $8 million contract. “Things can turn pretty quick, especially if you have elite pieces like the Sabres do.” The 10-year veteran and 2018 NHL MVP was the top forward available once the NHL’s free-agency period opened Friday. “It’s a good feeling to be wanted like that.” Hall could not say the same thing about the Coyotes, where he was put off by internal turmoil that led to GM John Chayka resigning a week before the start of the playoffs. “You’ve got to adapt, and I think this was the best play for me,” Hall said.
