In 1974, the National Hockey League finished an eight-year expansion with the addition of teams in the Kansas City and Washington, D.C. areas. The Kansas City team was originally named the Mohawks, which would signify a combination of the Missouri and Kansas areas. However, the Chicago Blackhawks objected, and so the team was instead named the Scouts, after a statue in the city. On October 9, 1974, the Kansas City Scouts took to the ice for the first time in Toronto, Canada, and lost 6-2 to the Toronto Maple Leafs. Due to a rodeo being held in Kemper Arena, the team's normal home ice, the Scouts were forced to wait 9 games before making their home debut. Although they lost that game to the Blackhawks 4-3, they won the next night by beating fellow expansion team Washington Capitals 5-4. Unfortunately, the Scouts failed to make the playoffs in either of their two seasons, and managed to win just 27 games out of a possible 160. For the second season, the team managed to sell only 2,000 of 8,000 season tickets. The Scouts' lack of success on the ice, coupled with financial problems (the team was almost $1 million in debt by the 1975-1976 season) forced them to move to Denver as the Colorado Rockies after only two years.

Logo of the Colorado Rockies (1976-1982)The Rockies started off better than the Scouts had, winning their first game 4-2 over the Maple Leafs (ironically the team that had beaten the Scouts in their debut). The team picked up momentum, and looked to possibly make the playoffs. However, things collapsed in February, and they finished the 1976-77 season with a record of 20-46-14. The next season marked a high point of sorts for the team; despite finishing with a worse record than the year before, they managed to make the playoffs. Unfortunately, they were summarily finished by the Philadelphia Flyers, losing the series two games to none.
Prior to the 1978-79 NHL season, hints of a Rockies move began to arise. Owner Jack Vickers sold the team to Arthur Imperatore. Imperatore announced that he wished to move the team to the New Jersey Meadowlands. However, the NHL vetoed the move, saying the team would have to remain in Denver until the Meadowlands Arena was finished with construction. In 1979 the team hired Don Cherry as coach, and traded for Maple Leafs forward Lanny McDonald. Neither move was enough to prevent the Rockies from posting the worst record in the NHL.

1982-1983 New Jersey Devils Official Team PhotoThe team was officially renamed the New Jersey Devils on June 30, 1982. Over 10,000 people voted in a contest held by local newspapers, and selected the Devils, a name influenced by the legend of the Jersey Devil, an ominous cryptozoological creature supposed to inhabit the Pine Barrens, although that region is in South Jersey, which was Philadelphia Flyers territory, rather than that of the New York Rangers or Islanders before the Devils arrived, and remains so today.
The team's first game ended in a 3-3 tie to the Pittsburgh Penguins; team captain Don Lever scored the first goal in franchise history. Their first win came at the expense of their new Hudson River rivals, the New York Rangers, as the Devils won at home 3-2. [4] Despite high points during their first season, the team finished with a 17-49-14 record, continuing a tradition of struggling teams that started in Kansas City and continued in Colorado.

Meanwhile, the Devils had begun building a nucleus of young players. John MacLean, Kirk Muller, and Pat Verbeek all complemented the veteran leadership of Resch. The Devils’ record improved each season between 1984 and 1988. Part of the reason for the improvement was yet another front-office shakeup, when Lou Lamoriello was hired as team president in April of 1987. Lamoriello named himself general manager shortly before the 1987-88 season, a move that made little sense at the time. Although Lamoriello was a coach at Providence College, he had no managerial experience, and was not well-known outside the American college hockey community.

The following season, the Devils once again fell below .500, and missed the playoffs. However, after the season, Lamoriello made several player changes, the most notable being the signing of two Soviet players, Viacheslav Fetisov and Sergei Starikov, the first Soviet stars to play in the NHL. Interestingly enough, the Devils had drafted Fetisov years earlier in the 1983 NHL Entry Draft, but the Soviet government would not allow Fetisov to defect to America. The Devils later followed by signing Fetisov’s defensive partner, Alexi Kasatonov. All the while, the team continued to show improvement, but were eliminated in the first round of the playoffs.

New Jersey Devils Stanley Cup Tickets
Between 1990 and 1993, the Devils made the playoffs each year, only to bow out in the first round each time. In 1994, the Devils started gaining respectability in NHL circles. A team headlined by defensemen Scott Stevens and Scott Niedermayer; Claude Lemieux, Bobby Holik, Valeri Zelepukin, Stephane Richer and John MacLean on offense; and goaltenders Martin Brodeur and Chris Terreri steamrolled through the regular season, finishing with the league's second-best record and the franchise's first 100-point season. The Devils took the New York Rangers, the only team with a better record during the regular season, to seven games in the Eastern Conference Finals before losing the seventh game in double overtime. The Rangers went on to win the Stanley Cup.

New Jersey Devils Hockey Playoffs Tickets
Throughout the 1990's, Lou Lamoriello's Devils perfected the system of the neutral zone trap, an effective yet decidedly boring style of hockey which frustrated opposing teams with a clogged neutral zone. This style of hockey had been imported by Devils head coach and defensive guru Jacques Lemaire - a key player on the defensive-oriented Montreal Canadiens team during the 1970's. During the 1990's, the Devils gained a reputation for clutching and grabbing, clogging up the neutral zone and slowing down a once exciting and fast paced game. Many say that this system which culminated in a 1995 Stanley Cup win was one of the worst moments in NHL history for it sanctified a horribly boring style of hockey as the standard for the rest of the league to follow. In 2005, the NHL instituted a series of offensive-minded rule changes in order to mitigate the effects of the neutral zone trap - these included curtailing goalie movement behind the net, limiting forecheckers' ability to clutch oncoming forwards and eliminating the two-line offside pass.

New Jersey Devils tickets
Recently New Jersey State Assemblyman Craig Stanley, who is a Baptist deacon, announced that he planned on introducing a resolution to have the Devils change their name because of its religious undertone. However, Devils officials including Lamoriello said that there would be no name change. Despite the logo and mascot implying that the Devils are modeled after the Christian representation of the Devil, the team's name comes from the legendary Jersey Devil. In July 2005 it was announced that head coach Pat Burns would not return for the 2005-2006 season after being diagnosed with cancer for the second time in little more than a year. Larry Robinson, the Devils' coach from March 23, 2000, to January 28, 2002, returned as head coach in the 2005-2006 season.
