What was the most influential trade in NJ Devils History?

I think you can't point to one except the Brodeur one - who they may have picked anyhow like maxpower said.

It's the building that counts. Many of these wouldn't be as valuable if the moves prior hadn't been made.

Ain't it the truth. There's a lot of bricks in a solid wall.

We should also thank the Sharks from entering the league in the year that it did. If not for them, we would have had the second pick (instead of the third), with which I think Lou admitted he would have taken Pat Falloon, who was the consensus number 2 player behind Lindros.

The biggest one: Brodeur because every teams built from the net out.

Most underrated one: Acquiring Grant Marshall

Colorado for New Jersey?

Was going to vote for "Acquiring Claude Lemieux from Montreal for Sylvain Turgeon" but have to go with the Scott Niedermayer one. Both were big trades.

I had assumed that influential meant in a good way, since there are so many.

To me getting Holik was a start, but getting Pepe changed the attitude here. The guy hated to lose and it rubbed off on the franchise.

I miss that franchise.
