Description

From the moment Dr. John McMullen brought professional hockey to New Jersey to the moment Scott Stevens lifted the Stanley Cup over his head for the third time, the Garden State has been in love with its New Jersey Devils. In Chico Resch’s Tales from the Devils Ice, former New Jersey goalie Chico Resch and co-creator Mike Kerwick bring readers along for a wild ride from the lean early seasons to the three Stanley Cup championships. The book has it all, including details about John MacLean’s game winner against Chicago, the goal that propelled the Devils into the playoffs for the first time; Ken Daneyko’s emotional curtain call in Game 7 of the 2003 Stanley Cup Finals; and Martin Brodeur’s once a year playoff dominance. Resch and Kerwick spent the 2003-04 season talking to players past and present, looking for the stories at the back of the stories. They provide answers to questions like: Why did teammates shove a shaving-cream pie in defenseman Colin White’s face all the way through a practice in Columbus? Why did Garry Howatt serve as an official linesman even as he used to be still on the Devils roster? And why did Kirk Muller receive a phony subpoena when he used to be a little late paying for auto body work on his car? Fans won’t have to wonder about questions like those to any extent further. Chico Resch’s Tales from the Devils Ice is an easy skate through Devils history, revealing insights at the back of the stories fans have heard and many others they’ve not heard until now.
