Devils History

Following a playing career that spanned 18 seasons, 820 games, 324 wins, and nine teams/eight franchises, goaltender Sean Burke (a three-time All-Star) retired from professional hockey in 2007. But he has stayed involved with the game that he loves in a different capacity that has been just as fulfilling.  Less than a year after his retirement as a player he joined the then-Phoenix Coyotes as the Director of Prospect Development and he also held the titles of Assistant GM and Goaltending Coach. Eight years later he took a job with the Montreal Canadiens as a pro scout and in July 2017 he was named GM of Team Canada for the Deutschland Cup, the Spengler Cup, and the 2018 Winter Olympics. Sean Burke's run in the postseason paved the way for the eventual legends of New Jersey Devils to take the reigns.

P.K. Subban may believe he’s still a top defenseman in the NHL, but he’ll have to settle for just being one of the top guys on the underperforming New Jersey Devils. The Devils have no choice but to do the same. Subban and Devils Disappoint Following the trade that brought Subban to the Devils last offseason, expectations were significantly raised for a team that had just finished third from last place in the entire league with 31-41-10 record. After all, in addition to Subban, the Devils had also acquired Nikita Gusev from the Vegas Golden Knights. Furthermore, they signed Wayne Simmonds as an unrestricted free agent and drafted superstar-in-the-making Jack Hughes first overall. Finally, after he had been limited to 33 games the previous season, the Devils also had a relatively healthy Taylor Hall back in the fold. After dealing him away in an ill-advised early-season trade, the Devils seemingly have to keep Subban in it as a result, with the team currently a...

Devils History

After being spoiled for over a decade, the New Jersey Devils and their fanbase haven’t experienced winning a Stanley Cup championship since 2003. New Jersey earned its third Cup in less than 10 years during 2002-03, and it seemed that the Devils were on top of the hockey universe and on pace to collect at least one more ring before an all-time great such as defenseman Scott Stevens retired. While that hasn’t been the case since that memorable June in Jersey, that doesn’t mean the Devils haven’t had a number of top-tier caliber skaters on their roster over the last decade and counting. Let's look back at the three best Devils that never won a Stanley Cup. Andy Greene While skaters such as Aaron Broten, Patrik Sundstrom, Kirk Muller, Pat Verbeek or Ilya Kovalchuk arguably earn a spot on this list, there’s one skater who's donned a Devils sweater for over a decade that deserved the nod, Andy Greene. Andy Greene (Amy Irvin / The Hockey Writers) Greene...

Devils History

May 15 goes down as one of the most intriguing dates in National Hockey League history. There was so much more than just the exciting moments on the ice that makes it a memorable date. The league announced some very important expansion teams, one of the most lopsided trades ever occurred and one team made a franchise-altering draft pick. The Heist of the Century Depending on which team you root for, May 15, 1967, is either a great day or one you’d love to forget about. This was the date when a trade forever changed the Boston Bruins franchise. The Chicago Blackhawks traded a disgruntled Phil Esposito to the Bruins, along with Ken Hodge and Fred Stanfield, for Pit Martin, Jack Norris, and Gilles Marotte. Esposito went from being a very good player in Chicago to a goal-scoring legend in Boston. In fact, all three players excelled with the Bruins, making this one of the most lopsided trades in NHL history. The trio of...
