    I would have to give an honorable mention to Steve Thomas just because I loved him as a player He could fly up the boards with a loose puck

  8. @BigStretchies

    Niedermayer was awesome. Just wish he could have had an off year in 2007, lol! Was never happening, though…
    Think he wanted that win for his brother more than anything.

  9. @RRaquello

    I always liked Brian Rafalski. Low key defenseman who could play both offensive and shut down. Bobby Carpenter also. Elias is definitely a Hall of Famer. I think him and Steve Larmer are the guys most deserving to be there who aren't. Bobby Holik was another favorite. Both him and Bruce Driver also crossed enemy lines. Scott Gomez too. But who could resist with the money the Rangers were throwing around, LOL.

    John Madden, 2000 & 2003 Cup with the Devils, and 2010 with Chicago, Sykora, 2000 with the a Devils, played vs the Devils with the Ducks in 2003, won his 2nd with Pittsburgh in 2009.

  14. @gogolplex74

    Remember Sergei Brylin? One of the 5 players along with Daneyko, Brodeur, Niedermayer and Stevens who won all 3 cups with the team

  15. @ryguyful

    Loved watching Bobby Holik battle some of the big centres in the playoffs. Messier and Lindros come to mind. Another under-rated bottom 6 favourite of mine was Sergei Brylin. Hard worker with a decent touch around the net.

    First NHL game I ever sat down and watched all the way through was Devils vs. Rangers. Hockey wasn't a thing locally and NHL broadcasts were rare on the national networks. I think it was supposed to be a New York showcase. Announcers wouldn't stop gushing about the Rangers. It made me hate them instantly, a sentiment I still maintain. And, honestly, they looked like the better team, with tons of shots and great individual efforts.

    However, despite all of that, the unquestioned main character for that game was Martin Brodeur. He wasn't just stopping all the shots, he was out there making plays and frustrating an entire team. As someone who didn't know anything about hockey, Brodeur looked like an absolute rock star. He made the announcers change their focus and he made me a fan of the sport. I've seen very few goalies since who can take over games in the same way on a consistent basis–only Roy and Hasek come to mind.

    Because of that, Brodeur will always be my favorite Devil and one of my favorite hockey players, period.

  24. @Jibily1

    Cory Schneider took over from Brodeur and was incredible while the team ahead of him was traaash. RIP His groin.

    Great list.

    I'd have Scott Gomez and Sergei Brylin somewhere on this list.

  28. @DevilzFan

    Schneider was a case of "right goalie, wrong time". He played his butt off and was flat out fantastic his first few years in Jersey. But the rest of the team was not. They unfortunately wasted Cory's best years.

  29. @DevilzFan

    Solid list. My personal top 2 are Scott Niedermayer (the best skater to ever play for the organization), and Chris Terreri. I loved Terreri. And I was pissed when Marty came in and (in my mind at the time) stole Terreri's job. Obviously I warmed up to Marty a few years later haha. But I was an emotional teenager at that time in the early 90's.

  35. @PG13hockeyman

    It’s still surprising that Brian Gionta has the single season goal record for the Devils. It’s not a guy like Elias or even Parise. I still see him as a Hab.

  36. @simbeau

    I know he wasn't alway a Devil but I got to know him as one. He was my favorite goalie back when I started in net, even more so than Richard Brodeur.

    Glenn "Chico" Resch

  37. @maverickattacks7414

    Starting at 1: Brodeur, Elias, Stevens, Arnott, Gionta, Madden, Daneyko, Niedermayer, Jack Hughes, Henrique (it's over), Kovalchuk, Mogilny, Pandolfo, Coleman, Hischier, Hall, Bratt, Lemieux, Clarkson, Colin White

    Despite being one of the best players to wear the jersey and our captain in a trip to the Finals, I doubt many people will have Parise on their list.
