NEWARK, N.J. -- Taylor Hall had waited a long time to hear the roar of the crowd, to feel this particular set of nerves while standing on the blue line at the start of a home game in the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
Hall, who is in his eighth season, wasn't going to let that good memory slip through his hands, getting three points (one goal, two assists) for the New Jersey Devils in a 5-2 win against the Tampa Bay Lightning in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference First Round at Prudential Center on Monday.
Game 4 is here on Wednesday (7:30 p.m. ET; GOLF, SN, TVAS2, MSG+, SUN).
