What a turnout by our fans, amazing setup by the team, they really transformed the plaza, had so much fun.

Just leaving a White Castle in Jersey City, baked out of my mind, that’s how you know tonight was amazing and life as a Devils fan moving forward is going to be great, pivotal evening for the franchise.

Also, the new park in front of the Rock is AMAZING, they did an incredible job, so well designed.

I didn't go to the event but it looked good from the pictures I saw. Going to be nice to see that excitement carry over into the season.

This is the stuff I love to hear. Past draft parties were terribly put together, nice to hear they nailed it this time and everyone had fun.

That Larsson-year draft party was so weird, and cramped for being outside.

I wasn’t at that one, but I went in 2005, 2008, and 2009 and they were all horribly organized.

That park is fvcking beautiful! Loved seeing the local kids playing in the splash park. 

 

Gonna be fun having our Championship parade centered in that park. Great sightlines of the arena.

The view from Championship Plaza as Marty announces Hughes

If the cops can be cool about fans drinking here before the games (and if we can keep it sort of respectful), this park is going to be really fun, total game changer

Architscturally, the coolest part is that the park slopes up to meet the 2nd floor of the warehouse building they’re renovating. And the 2nd floor has these huge garage doors, double height ceilings and pavement that meets the park. It totally looks like there will be bars and restaurants with outdoor seating there, and like HUGE bars and restaurants..

So many phones out all recording terrible quality of the same thing that they will most likely never watch again. I'll never understand it.

Two requests:

1. Maybe don't take Jack's family on a Newark tour first a la Nico. Do NYC and a Yankee game first this time before breaking the news to him.

2. Keep Stan Fischler away from him.

Jack’s a Yankee fan and Cashman is a Devils fan, so I think there’s going to be a major troll job on the Rangers when only Jack is invited to throw out the first pitch.

Nah, NJ is great. Newark tho, kinda dilapidated.

Yeah, I hope they give him the Nico treatment, I imagine they will.

Nico went to a Red Bulls game and Yankees game and then walked across the street to go to Hobby's. Not exactly a real tour of the streets anyway lol

They do have a decently put together downtown around which Blues fans circulate though. If only important people in Newark and Trenton could get their sh!t together.......lol nvm.
