Elias' Number retired by Devils

Patrik Elias had his number retired last night...one of the best Devil players of alltime.  I swear he looked like the best player in the league everytime they played the Flyers.

They brought up Game 7 of the 2000 ECF multiple times during the ceremony. Probably his biggest Flyer killer moment.:VeryCool:

 

It's always good to see the players from the glory days again during these things. The Scotts both look like college professors with their glasses. Marty looked like he wanted to be anywhere but there (I think he's still a little bitter over how things ended with him and the Devils). Arnott and Brylin both look like they've barely aged. Colin White on the other hand looks like he's been putting away twelve packs regularly since he retired.

 

It was a good, although kind of long, ceremony and after sleep walking through the first two periods they turned it on and got a win to improve to 5-0 on jersey retirement nights.
