they won a bunch of Cups playing some of the most boring hockey seen by man. they had some amazing HOF quality players in those runs, like Brodeur/Niedermayer/Stevens/Rafalski/Elias as well as one of the most well-known managers in the game in Lou Lamoriello
since then they haven't been too relevant other than the run they made in 2012. team's been full of washed up old guys for a while. they're currently in rebuild mode, will need a significant injection of young talent
i believe they've got one jersey boy on the roster right now in kyle palmieri, who was acquired in a trade they easily won

is it kinda awkward that Ferraro's referring to it as his son Matt and 'his wife' Manroop's son? instead of as his daughter-in-law
>>68449722
what was so boring about their style of play?
>>68449806
>Manroop
>>68449815
They played what's called the trap, which is a 1-3-1 neutral zone system. Basically four players force the puck-carrier to dump the puck in, and then the goalie gets it, passes it to the defenseman hanging out by his own net, and then they go the other way. To combat this the league implemented areas on the ice where the goalie can't play the puck(in the corners).
You can see the Flyers mock the Lightning's trap in this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VV1PrbkK3E
Basically, the devils popularized what the Lightning are doing, and won several cups doing it; usually allowing under 20 shots a game.

Apologize.
holy shit... it really is dead, and barely 24 hours after the last game
>>68449880
the thing that really separated the devils from the rest of them in pursuing this style was that brodeur was so good at handling to puck.

You forgot the avs. The Avs and Devils were very closely related. They were essentially their own east-west counterparts.
>>68450179
If you look at my graph this shows. Eventually the two even became equal in series wins in 2012
Pens success was more spread out with a hole in the early 2000's
>1980
>>68450328
I thought Avs were mainly rivals with Wings
And they only won 2 cups while Chicago also won 3
>>68449622
underrated team, think they would have made the playoffs if cammalleri was healthy
rough division though
>>68450362
Well yes, rivals with
I meant as being comparable to a similar level of success around the same time.
The wings ended up being much more successful than either of them.
I will post some of my graphs to show this.
here
>>68450362
This is playoff goal differential from 1987 onward.
The devils and the avs closely mirrored each other for some strange reason.
Meanwhile the Wings had a two-pronged dynasty of sorts.

>>68449202
The Devils were 50-1 preseason in 2003 too.
>>68459146
It'll be Matthews. They need a center badly. You can't win in this league without a #1 center and Matthews is projected to be that. Time will tell if he indeed is.

A team in Vegas will not be fun, because if they ban gambling on the team people will be pissed, and if they allow gambling it'll be an absolute shitshow.
The NHL literally only did this to preempt the NFL and the Raiders. And it was a fucking awesome move on the NHL's part. Raiders in Vegas would be shit too, but at least it'd be hilarious because of they culture around the Raiders and the fact they'd fully embrace the pirate aspect.
