The 2013 NHL season did not go as expected for the defending Eastern Conference Champions. The New Jersey Devils busted out of the gates with a dominant 8-1-3 record in their first 12 games, which was good enough for top spot in the East. When the final horn sounded in game 48, the Devils were on the outside looking in for the second time in three...

Shanahan Made The Right Call On The Suspension Of Gryba
from Damien Cox of the Toronto Star,
Having dumped on Brendan Shanahan for going on two years now, I feel compelled to congratulate him when he gets one right.
And I think he nailed it on Eric Gryba.
Well, let me back off that just a bit, since I believe all NHL suspensions are, in general, far too short, which is why there are so many of them. Give Andrew Ference 10...
New Jersey Devils Primed for 2013-14 Season
By Kristin Tullo (@K_Tullo)
It may seem cliche and it may just be part of an Aerosmith song, but for the New Jersey Devils there might actually be some truth to the saying, “Sometimes you have to lose to learn how to win.”
The New Jersey Devils lost to their cross-river rivals in the 1994 Eastern Conference Final, only to see the Rangers capture their first Stanley Cup in 42...
Devils season comes to an end
Last May, the New Jersey Devils ended the New York Rangers run to the Stanley Cup six victories shy of the Holy Grail. Fast forward to Sunday’s contest at Madison Square Garden, where, although the stakes weren’t nearly as high, Ranger fans were relishing the sight of their cross-river rivals unraveling right before their eyes.

from Stan Fischler at the Daily Freeman,
In Newark, where the Devils enjoyed an unprecedented season-long run of sellouts at Prudential Center, fans are massaging their scalps, wondering how the plunge from the penthouse to the pits occurred almost without warning and precedent.
Or, as Mr. Devil-turned-broadcaster Ken Daneyko says, “I’ve never seen anything like this...
Dmitry Kulikov hits Stephen Gionta into Panthers bench, T.J. Brennan shoves him back on the ice (Video)
Florida Panthers defenseman Dmitry Kulikov knocked New Jersey Devils forward Stephen Gionta flying over the boards and into the Panthers bench during the third period of Saturday's NHL game at the Prudential Center.

Video: Stephen Gionta checked into the Florida bench, Panthers shove him right back out
When New Jersey forward Stephen Gionta was trying to slip past Florida defenseman Dmitri Kulikov, he must have assumed he was about to take a big hit. Gionta tried to nimbly jump beyond the check, but instead found himself knocked over the boards and sitting next to the Florida bench.
Gionta likely imagined that once over the boards he'd have no problem safely making...
Are the Devils cursed since Martin Brodeur won his 666th game?
The New Jersey Devils appeared to be a safe bet to reach the Eastern Conference playoffs prior to their current losing streak. The Devils have lost 10 straight. Their last win came on March 23, and it was a milestone win for future Hall of Famer Martin Brodeur as it was his 666th career victory. Uh oh. As you have probably heard, 666 is a number that has historically been associated...
