OP buried the lede. Patrik Elias became the New Jersey Devils’ all-time leading points scorer on March 17, 2009, St. Patrick’s Day, against the Chicago Blackhawks. He collected his 702nd career point on an assist to Brian Gionta, in a game which the Devils won. The Rock was shaking that day.
I miss that fucker. I would love to see him come back in some coaching/training position…

That was fun, feels like yesterday. Anyone remember the exact year?
I miss the green so much in the Jersey
I’ll never forget watching that. Was that the first time they went with the classic jerseys, too? Something’s telling me yes.
I was there! First Devils game and nothing will top it next to witnessing a cup clinching game
Ayoooo
