Someone had to start it. So, congrats Patty on all the goals. You are now the unequivocal Devils offensive statistical leader. It's amazing that through all that defensive hockey you still became the all time leader.
Congrats Patty on 348

One of the most underrated players in the NHL IMO. Solid player all around. He really earned this one. Congratulations to him.

Congrats Patty.

Elias will fall in the hard luck group of players that will be denied the Hall of Fame despite being excellent players for a long time. The scoring numbers aren't always among the top players in the league, but Elias is one of the greatest defensive forwards of all-time.

If he wins 4 cups and scores 500 goals (both reasonable), I think it COULD be enough.

In order for him to score 500, he'd have to average 30 goals for 5 more seasons. In other words...not happening.If he wins 4 cups and scores 500 goals (both reasonable), I think it COULD be enough.

Yeah, there is no chance he scores 500 goals. He has an outside shot at 1000 points, but he's 155 points away, and would probably have to play 250+ games to do that.

Congrats to patty, one of my top five devils players of all time.
Like some have stated before he only has a chance of making the hof if he gets 1000 points.
He will def get his number retired though.

Yeah. I somehow got 348 and 398 confused. I knew he had 348, but did the math for 398. Bit of a difference. Yay studying for grad school final while working full time. This will be one of many times I sound like an idiot between now and Thursday.

Underrated and our best player for the last 2 years.. DeBoer said it best upon seeing Elias leave practice with an injury.. "My life flashed before my eyes."
And I love the way he plays the game. Top 10 defensive forward ever.

Elias is the reason I became a Devils fan years ago, over the years as players like Zajac and Parise have stepped up Elias kind of took a back seat but he really has been the best player on the team the past couple of seasons and it will be hard to imagine this team without him.
