Confirmed with Link: Patrik Elias Night, Saturday 2/24/18 vs. NYI

[NJDevils7]

Obviously we all love Marty but I still do think the way that he ended his career left fans with a little disappointment.

The fact that Elias ended his career in the picture perfect way that we all imagined will make this one extra special and emotional.

 

[mtnet]

Will definitely plan on making this game

The Marty retirement was great so I wouldn't want to miss Patty's

I cherish being able to say that I saw Patty's last goal ever in person, at home, with 15 seconds left in a 5-1 win. The Rock ****ing roared damn near as loud as it has since 2012, too. Amazing.

That moment was the reason I'm really glad he didn't play in the last home game from last season for no reason. It would have never matched it.

That was a truly epic night.

I remember being there for that one too, good times

I usually go to the closers but don't think I will this coming season, will continue attending the openers each season though

Marty's retirement night was exciting and fun to be at. But Patty's? For me it will be emotional. My favorite Devil, EVER.

I'm not trying to ignite a pissing war over two guys on franchise Mt. Rushmore, but Patty had considerably more charisma than Marty who was kind of bland in terms of personality. I think that endeared him to fans a lot more even though Marty had unquestionably the better career.

Marty was much more personable and happy go lucky earlier in his career.

IMO, he changed once the Cory trade went down.

well understandably so, it was his team for how long? and then all of a sudden they go and bring in your replacement which you recognize and they don't even tell you that they are doing it.. I think anyone would be a little sour over that.

 

[njdevils1982]

i really hope they bring out the old black and red jerseys for this one

but with this adidas thing i dont see it happening

The least they can do is give Elias a CCM or RBK to wear...we will see.

I agree with this 1,000%.

Patrik was a consummate professional both on and off the ice and has returned the favor to the people of New Jersey ten-fold.

God, his speech is gonna be a riot.

 

[BenedictGomez]

Patty had considerably more charisma than Marty who was kind of bland in terms of personality.

Huh? I could not possibly disagree with this statement more.

Elias while a nice guy, is a bit of an introvert and shy in person.

Brodeur, while a nice guy, is outgoing and a ham in person.

 

[New Jersey]

i always found him to be deadpan funny but that's just me

 

[Devilsgrl35]

So these tickets aren't on sale yet?

 

[ForeverJerseyGirl]

So these tickets aren't on sale yet?

I think the team right now is only selling tickets as part of plans but you should be able to get them through a third party site like Stubhub though tickets might be quite expensive, unfortunately.

 

[thethinglonger]

Of course it falls on the 5 year anniversary with the girlfriend...my favorite Devil...don't know if I'll be able to see this one

 

[gomek]

Ticket prices were a little too out of control when I checked. It's really weird as I had no problem getting tickets for all the other retirement games.

Get two tickets and go with the girlfriend as a date night....it'll be romantic!

(Unless you paint your face and go berserk, a la Puddy in Seinfeld)

 

[EliasFTW]

I will be in tears.

 

[JimEIV]

I thnk Brian Gionta is the only player remaining in the league from our last cup team

 

[Bleedred]

And I'm starting to think his career might be over too.

Or maybe he's a very late signing or PTO, but usually when it's August 3rd and a player is unsigned, they usually aren't signed at all or are a PTO.

 

[BenedictGomez]

Ticket prices were a little too out of control when I checked. It's really weird as I had no problem getting tickets for all the other retirement games.

Keep in mind they're not officially offered for sale yet, so the supply on sale currently is quite high and is likely not truly representative of what the ticket prices will settle in at.

Though I'm sure the Devils ticketing staff wont tell you that.

 

[Its a Trap]

I imagine I might shell out for this. Marty tickets were absolutely outrageous and I couldn't justify the cost...but I've got to go to one...
