Nothing offers stronger evidence of a winning culture/formula than, well, winning. But ESPN.com's Craig Custance suggests the situation is more complex than that.

Any team in the NHL would love to have this guy. However, if I was on a franchise that put together this type of run, potentially winning the Stanley Cup.

The Devils are back. God help us all. New Jersey has reached the conference finals for the first time since winning the Cup back in 2003 after closing out Philadelphia 3-1 in Game 5 of their second-round series on Tuesday.

Talking Devils/Coyotes Stanley Cup Final

from Adam Proteau of The Hockey News, Of all the teams remaining in the 2012 NHL playoffs, the New Jersey Devils are the most offense-minded. I’ll pause for a second while that sinks in. You heard me right. The franchise least associated with a thrilling brand of hockey has become the lone on-ice answer to the drone-like defensive systems employed to varying degrees by the Washington...

Game time is just after 7:30pm ET and can be viewed on NBCSN, CBC and RDS. We all know the story, if New York wins they will move on tothe ECF and face the New Jersey Devils.
