Why The Devils?:
I was born and raised a Devils fan. My dad was born in New Jersey and he has been a fan since the franchise moved to Jersey. He had me watch every game with him and I have watched them for my entire life.
Greatest Personal Memory:
(a game that was perhaps meaningless to others, but holds a special memory for you)
My greatest personal memory would have to be my first Devils game at the Rock. I went to the Devils vs. Bruins game on March 15, 2010. I was born in AZ and the Devils only come here every 3 years so I was stoked to finally be able to go to a home game. I usually travel to Jersey during the summer, when hockey season is over. The Rock is absolutely amazing and them winning made it even better.
Greatest Team Memory:
The 2000 Stanley Cup Finals. This is the first Devils Stanley Cup I saw (that I remember). My neighbor was a Stars fan so the rivalry made it more interesting. I had a good feeling from the start and I knew they would take the cup. I still remember hearing Gary Thorne yell “Elias centers, shot SCORES!!! The New Jersey Devils have won the Stanley Cup!”
What Makes YOU a Crazy Devils Fan?:
I got a Devils tattoo about 2 months ago. I have enough Devil’s clothing to last a week and a half. There is a Devil’s logo on basically everything I own.
Favorite Current and Favorite All-Time Devil:
Patrik Elias has always been my favorite player.
