The New Jersey Devils announced a trio of significant medical updates Tuesday.
Hart Trophy finalist Taylor Hall underwent surgery to repair torn ligaments in his left hand. The injury was suffered in late December, but he was able to play through it under the care of the team's medical staff.
So Taylor Hall sustained that left hand injury in 'late' December. He still scored 27-30-57 in the final 40 gms of the reg season beginning 1/2/18. Remarkable.

Hall will be good to go for training camp in September.
Goaltender Cory Schneider also went under the knife to repair torn cartilage in his left hip, with an expected recovery time of five months.
And finally, winger Patrick Maroon underwent surgery to repair a herniated disc in his back and is expected to be ready prior to training camp. He can become an unrestricted free agent on July 1.
All three players will be evaluated as the summer progresses.
