Devils731 Posted October 24, 2002 Share Posted October 24, 2002 From Jacques Lemaire "...the idea is to win, it is not to say you score more goals than everybody else in the league that loses." "Winning is the most important thing. What I am saying is, if we win, then we scored enough goals to win." -Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'7' Posted October 24, 2002 Share Posted October 24, 2002 Ftorek was such a nut. You know what I'd write on the drawing board? LP anybody know what that stands for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DevilMinder Posted October 25, 2002 Share Posted October 25, 2002 I dont remember what exactly was said but it was one of Gomez's first intermission interviews and he said something like.. "we needed to get our $hit going." Matt looked at him and said this was live I think lol. Ace one is my fav also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure it was game 3 where Gomer said something like "I'm just glad to finally get on the fu^&ing board," after his first or second period goal.

NJDevs4978 Posted October 25, 2002 Share Posted October 25, 2002 Zam: I'll partake no further on said thread if Claude bashing is to continue. Doesn't anyone else besides myself and ^7^ like Claude?! Heck I loved the REAL #22. I don't love when people make him the ONLY reason we ever won, but I was a big fan of #22, even after the contract fiasco in '96. I was a big fan of #89 too ironically enough but same deal...I don't like when people make him the only reason we ever scored BTW, this thread's definitely cute. The Larry quote's my favorite since it was so atypical and since his meltdown turned around that series. Some of the Claude ones are classic One that hasn't been mentioned yet, the Holik quote last year where he said the replay officials "must have been eating snacks" when they dissalowed a goal he should have scored, something like that.

Zamode Posted October 25, 2002 Share Posted October 25, 2002 Has, good to have you in the 22 club! ^7^, I don't think Get Real likes anyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SueNJ97 Posted October 25, 2002 Share Posted October 25, 2002 First, just wanted to say that just because I was quoting Claude doesn't mean I hate him. He's just had some classics over the year. Here's another from Gomer (from a team motivational/bonding session his rookie year, when asked his goal): "To date a model." I guess you can say he knew his priorities.

LetsGoDevils Posted October 25, 2002 Share Posted October 25, 2002 Claude was always liked by me when he played for the Devils. Best memory of him was the 1995 playoff series against the Flyers when he ripped one past Hextall for a game winner. The look of disappointment of the Flyers fan faces was; priceless.

Jerrydevil Posted October 25, 2002 Author Share Posted October 25, 2002 I never got the impression that any posters hated Claude Lemieux in reading this thread. I only got the impression that a lot of opposing players hated him. I am a HUGE Claude Lemieux supporter, love the way he plays. I don't have the exact quote, but Lemieux said from the moment his career started, he knew he'd never be the player cheered by fans around the league. We have a guy who went to the Lemieux school, Mike Danton. I'm hoping Danton can do some good things for us, too -- be hated around the league and liked by Devil fans. Just relax, and enjoy the Kool-Aid once in a while, Mike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaddDog Posted October 25, 2002 Share Posted October 25, 2002 One that hasn't been mentioned yet, the Holik quote last year where he said the replay officials "must have been eating snacks" when they dissalowed a goal he should have scored, something like that. That WAS pretty funny, even if I dislike alot of the other crap A$$holik has said. Wasn't that the goal they didn't allow that would have let him have a hat trick or something too? I'm going with the "Ace" thing, just cuz Mary-o completely had a meltdown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJayDevil Posted October 25, 2002 Share Posted October 25, 2002 Larry after the Devs went down 3-1 in the ECF in 2000: "Until they get it through their THICK skulls that our way is the right way, we aren't going to be successful and we aren't going to have success. If the game was that easy, they wouldn't need coaches, they would need just players." Well said!! Great quote...that's going in the sig. haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weekes Head Posted October 25, 2002 Share Posted October 25, 2002 I don't remember it exactly or who said it but it was something like first time I ever saw the name of that penalty fitting the crime. On Ftorek throwing the bench and getting a bench minor. Devils goalie Martin Brodeur on coach Robbie Ftorek's bench-throwing incident that got him a one-game suspension and a $10,000 fine: "It's the first time that I can recall calling a bench minor penalty that really fit the crime."
