Well McMullen was how many seasons ago, three or four? So maybe it’s not defunct, but I figured we would see one a year cause we definitely have enough people to fill that criteria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess honoring a local rival’s GM wouldn’t be a great look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHIP72 Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Zajac doesn’t deserve to have his jersey retired, but he’s been a solid player for a long, long time. If the Devils restart their Ring of Honor, he would definitely deserve to be inducted into that group.Zajac IMO is actually a 1990s/2000s type of Devils player, but unlike the great, very good, and good players who played on those past Devils teams who were surrounded by many other quality players, Zajac hasn’t had much around him quality player-wise in recent years. Unlike many Devils players of recent years, Zajac could have played on those very good, past Devils teams and been a useful piece of puzzle in helping them win.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes on Kakko, but time will tell on that and maybe not just the first five minutes of their careers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And after that - i was going to self-irony about the inscription(ny rangers have red-white letters on uniform) on chest - this inscription is on me becouse i wanted hang up zajac`s number in posts before(like titan said) - the joke contradicts me in my disbelief and returns to the beginning. i don`t like to explain joke, my lenguage in joke and in explain was bad, sorry for all of that. it`s a reason to finish with that.

Neb00rs Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 I'm not sure how I feel about retiring Zajac's jersey. Like CR said, he's been a loyal Devil, and the last of the Devils committed to the LL credo. He's been a great player for our franchise too. But, I'll wait to see what the Devils accomplish in his last few seasons with the team. What's more pressing to me is the captaincy. Everyone seems to be ready to hand it to Hall. But I'm of the unpopular opinion it should go to Zajac next, should Greene leave after this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no point in putting it on Zajac who is only a year younger than Greene. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no point in putting it on Zajac who is only a year younger than Greene. I'd love for Hall to earn the "C", he's the guy you want to be it in your heart of hearts. But the fact is, in hockey, the captaincy is special and it means more than just being vocal in the locker room. You gotta not only be a leader on the ice and off, but, in my opinion, you have to own your community as well. I haven't seen that from Hall. Hall hasn't even stated that he wants to stay here yet. It's possible by the time he re-signs that he gets there but for now, yeah, I'll go with the guy who is approaching 1000 games with the team and has been a team leader for many of those years - and has always fully bought in to what it means to be a Devil. Zajac most likely won't have his number retired but a good way to honor him would be with the "C" in his final year(s) with the team.
