So is Hall Really a Guy That Turns It Up In the Playoffs?

Much has been made of how Taylor Hall is considered a playoff performer. Just how much has he upped his game compared to his high profile teammates?

Out of Windsor's top scorers that have played there the last 2 years in the regular and postseason, Taylor Hall has the second highest improvement rate in points in the postseason only behind Ryan Ellis who is also having a huge postseason for the Spitfires this year.

By the looks of it, Hall is stepping up his game at the time that his team needs him the most. The competition is getting tougher and some of his teammates aren't getting the job done this postseason (Flames 1st round pick Greg Nemisz anyone?)
