The New Jersey Devils have gone a long way in adding significant star power to their roster early in the offseason, pulling off a blockbuster trade for blue-liner P.K. Subban and drafting American phenom Jack Hughes first overall.

New Jersey's moves have impressed star forward Taylor Hall, who can't wait to get going with his new teammates.

"As a player in the offseason, that's what you want to see," Hall said, per TSN. "It's exciting. We're going to have more than a couple new faces next year. Just injecting some new blood in the team is going to be really good."

Hall's 2018-19 season was tarnished by injuries - a disappointing follow-up to his Hart Trophy-winning campaign the year prior, when he carried the Devils to a playoff berth.

With Subban and Hughes now available to help carry the former MVP's load, Hall sees a turnaround for his team on the horizon.

"Whether he's playing on the power play or he's playing against the other team's top lines, he's going to be a guy that makes everyone else's jobs on the ice easier," Hall said of Subban.

"I'm really excited to play with him."

The developments come at an opportune moment for Hall, who is an unrestricted free agent next summer and intends to prioritize winning a Stanley Cup at this stage of his career.

Hall is eligible to sign an extension as of July 1 but said he and the Devils haven't begun talks yet.
