I always wished he would have been captain instead of Langenbrunner, and turned into a more offensive role with it*

That hatrick is definitely one of my favorites as well..specifically the 2nd goal that the Rangers d-man put in himself.

Just a great Devil. Hope he finds success post-career

Another gem not mentioned yet...

I forget which playoff year it was, but Madden drew Mario Lemieux's ire when he (Madden) duped Lemieux to pass him the puck by slapping his stick on the ice and calling "Ace." Lemieux was *pissed.* Good sh!t right there.

My favorite Mad Dog moment is when I actually got to see him play live here in Finland with Wild against the Hurricanes. I also got to touch his hand, haha.

One of my all time favorite Devils, for sure.

That was the 2001 ECF. Remember having a good laugh about that.

Absolutely. It's also amazing how only 1/2 of the people in the building could make so much noise considering (as the NY media loves to tell us) the building was 50% Rags fans. :rolleyes:

I still regret selling my Madden game worn jersey

He was the first Devil I ever met when I was 9 years old, a great guy.

This is the evolution of my all time favorite Devils.

Really happy that Madden not only had a great career but is able to stay in the game. I wish him the best in his new role!

I was young when Stevens played from 99-04. As a young kid I loved the goaltenders and forwards, or flashy defensemen like Rafalski. I never fully appreciated Stevens until I was older. Obviously now I love the man!

I missed this. I loved John Madden. I'm happy he showed he still had some game left after leaving. Great role player for NJ, I really enjoyed watching him play.
