THE CELEBRATION STARTS, THE NEW JERSEY DEVILS FOR THE THIRD TIME IN THEIR HISTORY HAVE WON THE STANLEY CUP, THE DEVILS THREE, THE DUCKS NOTHING, DEVILS, STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!!!!! Man I love Gary Thorne
This 2003 was the finals the year I was born but since I was born December 31st 2003 it was not the season but whatever it’s cool to see what hockey was like when I first was born and now in 2020 I’m a huge hockey fan and I fell in love with hockey in 2011 in the Canucks playoff run and since 2017 I really became a real fan!
We’re watching this years final and my dad told me about how he went to this game and during the end of one of the commercial breaks the camera started panning showing the crowd and sure enough my dad was in the shot! Thank you for uploading this so me and my dad could both see this together!
Proper trip down memory lane I'm English and remember staying up till 4am watching this can't beat a game 7 Stanley cup final as a Devils fan I was so excited to watch this
@@countof3everybodyOD The final score was Devils 3, Mighty Ducks 0. The Devils won their 3rd Stanley Cup in 2003, while the Ducks would have to wait until 2007 to win their first Stanley Cup.
Thank you so much to whoever posted this. I was stationed in Korea and did not get to see this because I had to go to the field. I did not find out what happened until we came back. 19 years and well worth the wait. Thank you.

1:22:36 The single loudest moment in hockey history. Freisen blew the roof off completely. This was the moment that said “the Devils are winning the Stanley Cup”. Only 18,000 people and it sounded like there were 80,000.
💯 agree. On the other broadcast, JD keeps talking about the building shaking like crazy. It was deafening in there. One of my favorite moments to have attended
1:33:10 Great class act by the Devils to cheer for Gigeure winning the Conn Smythe trophy. Like Clement points out, it's too bad so many of the fans didn't show the same respect.
Because Marty got screwed he set the record for shutouts in a playoff run and head to head vs jiggy shut him out in 3 of the 4 Devil wins.. I agree the fans shouldn't have done it but that MVP should have went to a devil guarantee it ducks win that game 7 the MVP wouldn't have went to a devil on a losing team Marty got robbed
@@japantuning88 but Broduer was incredible that whole playoff run and I just always feel to the victors go the spoils (not that Broduer winning the Conn Smythe would've been unwarranted at all).
Piss off. Read what I wrote above. Yeah, it's easier for the players to cheer the opposing oversized padded goalie coming out of the weak ass west. Don't judge our fans,need were pissed, and Marty actually was the one, by raising the figurative cup in his empty hands, the refocused us. Marty is a HOFer who never got the respect he deserved, so this, on his 3rd shutout of the michelan man's team, solidified it for us. Not to mention Friended had 10 friggin goals, and 5 in the finals. He equally deserved it more
i've been watching hockey for a long time and this may be the greatest defense i've ever seen, and yeah a lot of people bitched about these devils and said they had a slow, boring style of play that slowed down and ruined hockey but if you are a true fan you can appreciate how incredible they really were, i mean the 2002-03 devils obviously had no true superstars not on offense anyways but made up for it by being way more than the sum of their parts, by being perfectly discipled, well oiled defensive machine that almost never made mistakes, as far as defense goes this was like the 85 bears of the NHL i mean the ducks could barely get the puck out of their own zone and were lucky to even get a shot off let alone score, which in this game of course they didn't, hockey is truly a system game where a single player can rarely carry a team unless your talking a gretzky, orr or lemieux, or today a connor mcdavid, but mostly its a true team sport and this group def personified team hockey.
@@betsyduane3461 I can't say I was. 88 when they beat the islandefs I was at that cinching game, that was one of my first years. You need to go to games before it's truly appreciated.
I really feel like Marty got robbed of the Conn Smythe that year. He broke records and was a wall, and well his team won. No disrespect to Giguere though, he had an incredible run.
Brodeur was robbed in each Devils cup win in my opinion as they don't get close to winning any of the 3 without him. Only one I didn't complain about much was Lemieux in 95 because he practically scored at will, and in nearly always a clutch situation.
The key is who was more valuable. You could argue(albeit maybe not very well) that the Devil's would have won without Brodeur doing what he did in those playoffs, however Anaheim probably doesn't even get out of the first round let alone to the finals without Giguere performing the way he did in those playoffs.
I grew up in South Jersey which is Flyers County...my family and I were always Devils fans. This was a big one for me because I was a sophomore in high school and I wore my Stevens jersey the next day to piss off my friends who were cheering for the Ducks because they didnt want us to win. Ill never forget this one!
How awesome was it that all 3 of those former Dallas Stars; Jamie Langenbrunner, Joe Nieuwendyk and Grant Marshall came over to join the Devils to win another Stanley cup!
My only "sigh" being a Devils fan is the fact Marty didn't win a Conn Smythe, and this was the year to do it. Giguere was great but Marty was at the end of the day, better. He finished the game with a shutout lol, not to mention a cup. I was only 12 during this season and it was the best time I've had as a hockey fan haha
@@ArsenalBall76just to clarify: Brodeur had a record setting 7 shutouts that playoff year, including THREE (3) in the Finals. Those 3 in the SCF alone tied a 58-year record at the time (McCool in 1945), and in a game 7 to boot. Giguere wasn't undeserving of the Conn Smythe, but Marty was making history & writing the records book.
Perhaps this quote that sums up Scott Nidermayer career. “What you worry about that Scott Nidermayer Guy from New Jersey draft he’s going to be nothing he’s a bum he is on the wrong side of Canada trust me there’s is absolutely no way that this trade will haunt the leafs in the future.” Had the devils never got Scott its ALLLL will be different. The devils was amazing winning three Stanley’s. As for Scott 4 cups and multiple awards in his career. 1:31:30…..in 2007 they became teammates and won with Anaheim
Because Giguere was simply a little bit better that year, even though his team ultimately didn't win? He went 15-6 with a 94.5 save percentage, compared to Brodeur with a 16-8 record and a 93.2 save percentage. Anaheim also won 4-0 in games against the defending Cup champions and President Trophy winners Red Wings in the first round, much thanks to his play. In the Conference finals against Minnesota, he also had three straight shutouts, and they won 4-0 in games again. They ran out of gas in game 7 of the Cup finals though, and it finally showed that New Jersey was the better team, but that was an incredible runner up performance.
@@patriik0 As true as that is.. extreme deference is giving the MVP to the winning team by default unless it is so incredibly obvious to give it to a losing player. Also remember that the MVP is supposed to be for the entire playoffs, not just first 3 rounds. The stats between Giguere and Brodeur were close enough to merit Marty getting the MVP this time. He also broke the NHL record for most shutouts in a playoff campaign, and 3 in the finals. I'm not at the level to say it was a robbery to give to Gigs, but just feel it was wrong. It's akin to giving the NFL MVP to the losing quarterback. Just doesn't feel right.
Because Brodeur didn't carry the devils to the final. The trap lead by Stevens and Neidermayer did. Giguere on the other hand was the reason the Ducks even got out of the 1st round.
Arlette! She’s been with the Devils for a long time now. She sings the national anthem at most games and in 2000 and 2003 she did a lot of songs specifically recorded for the cup runs. This cover was one of those songs!
Giguere was 90% equipment. Watching him it's an absolute farce. It's beyond Garth Snow level. Seeing how awkward every movement of his is because he's literally wearing a sofa suit. I have never seen a goalie have to move around less than he did. He basically took up 92% of the net at all times and had to lurch here and there to cover up whatever areas his equipment wasnt blocking at the time. You look at that Ducks team and the names being mentioned...Jason Krog. Dan Bylsma, Marc Chouinard, Chistov, Kurt Sauer. Steve Thomas and Oates at 40 and nowhere near the players they used to be trying to squeeze one last gasp out of their careers. 2003 Ducks were a strange team and one that had no business winning a Cup. Not a bad team...just and odd one. Every game their strategy was get outplayed and outshot 42-18, no pucks get through the michelin man and we win 1-0 on some fluke bs goal in the 3rd OT.
That was a lack of reality for that commentator to say that. Our guy just got his 3rd shutout vs JSG's illegal ass pads and our other just got his 10th goal and 5th of the finals. Typical bettman
SEVEN SHUTOUTS THREE IN THE FINALS I still hate that snarky comment about us booing the michelan man and his puffy pads. Douche needed to understand that we were in the midst of celebrating, and our franchise hall of fame goalie just had his 3rd shutout of the finals. We were upset, that needs to be understood. It was Marty's, and it was taken from him, and from our celebration. So sorry, but not sorry
I thought the Ducks would be on top. I was hoping for that all the time back then. The worst year in my life, I think. The early 2000s look like the '90s a bit, which is the best decade in my life...I miss that epoch. The ubiquitous internet access has killed everything.
Do you have any idea what a joke the west was that year? Marty might have had 10 shutouts over there. As it was...he had 3 on the finals and the took it from him, and equally from Friesen who had 10 damn goals and 5 in the finals including a series winner in the semis.
Without Guegaire, those Ducks dont get to WCF, let alone game 7 of the Finals. Im a Colorado fan,& this was only 2 yrs after we beat you in game 7. But I was pulling hard for NJ in '03..& Guegerie to win Conn Smythe, cuz he definitely deserved it. Broduer is 1 of the All time greats-another Conn Smyth wouldnt matter that much for his legacy. But it means more to Gueguire-he wasnt an All time great. But that playoff run he was.
@@jasonsmith5226 How can Giguère deserve it but not Marty who had far better stats in the playoffs that year, and he won the series? Broduer never won the Conn Smythe, he was robbed.
He also had a much better supporting cast-NJ was a powerhouse. Anaheim was just an ordinary team, whos goalie stole games,& even series. I even heard Broduer say Guguire deserved it. Maybe he was just being classy. But thats the 1 time in my hockey watching life-started 1995-where I thought somebody on the losing team deserved it.Peter Forsberg in 2002 was the other time I thought it was possible.Missed the whole season, came back,& led the playoffs in scoring-despite the Avs not even making the Finals. But after the Avs lost 7-0 in game 7, (& 2-0 in game 6)-that ship sailed. But I dont remember too much controversy over Gugierre back then. But NHL fans from back then,know what Brodeur was all about. Other than Roy-theres no goalie in the last 25 yrs-Id take over Broduer. That includes Hasek,& Belfour-who made life miserable on my Avs.
Not to mention, with legal and normal sized goalie pads and not vs the soft ass west that year. Marty might have had 8 shutouts had we had JSG's road that year. The west was PATHETIC
Man let me tell u something I had a chance too see a eastern hockey team twice visiting both sides mom and dad parent's both grandpa on my dad's side lived in New Jersey Devil and then my mom's daddy liked the famous hated New York Islanders but we couldn't get the car started had major problem one of mygrandfather was going too call a taxi but you know I never got too see a hockey game ever @!!!!!!both sides of my moms and dads parent's are dead
Biggest travesty was Marty not getting the Conn Smythe. I remember being so pissed when Geiguerre won it. Marty had 3 shutouts in the finals. That alone should’ve won him that crown.

Not a bad team...just and odd one. Every game their strategy was get outplayed and outshot 42-18, no pucks get through the michelin man and we win 1-0 on some fluke bs goal in the 3rd OT.
Do you have Senators vs Devils game 4 of the 2003 Conference Finals?
I will try to check on this if I ever get the opportunity :-)
I don't really remember if I ever watch anything at all cause I'm starting too loose my memories
Gary Thorne should come back to announce NHL for ESPN

Whats the song they play when they win
It's my life. By bon Jovi
May I would of giving anything in the world too see this series
Never seen any playoff games from this year of the cup finals or the entire. Year
Devils clapping for giguere winning mvp showing more class than the fans that was a hard hit of honesty.
That was a lack of reality for that commentator to say that. Our guy just got his 3rd shutout vs JSG's illegal ass pads and our other just got his 10th goal and 5th of the finals. Typical bettman
Early 2000s Devils were the 🐐 defensive team. Only teams in the same tier are the late 90s early 2000s Stars and maybe the 2012-2014 Kings.
SEVEN SHUTOUTS
THREE IN THE FINALS
I still hate that snarky comment about us booing the michelan man and his puffy pads. Douche needed to understand that we were in the midst of celebrating, and our franchise hall of fame goalie just had his 3rd shutout of the finals. We were upset, that needs to be understood. It was Marty's, and it was taken from him, and from our celebration. So sorry, but not sorry
I was born like a month before this
18 years ago
Meanwhile, their Nets counterpart almost had the 2003 Championship as well.
Too bad the Spurs were too strong and the Nets blew it in game 6.
Sergei Brylin skated the blades off his skates.
I can’t wait to see Nico, Jack, Luke, Dougie, Timo, Dawson, Bratt do this
Jeff Friesen I always like him :P he always love to do empty goals :P
ahh brothery love at 22:38
I thought the Ducks would be on top.
I was hoping for that all the time back then. The worst year in my life, I think. The early 2000s look like the '90s a bit, which is the best decade in my life...I miss that epoch. The ubiquitous internet access has killed everything.
56:10 wake me up inside
"Hockey immortality is on the line tonight.." Nah, look at the Devils today. Lmao.
That’s pretty classless of NJ fans for booing Giguere. The man was unstoppable in the playoffs, so well deserved
Do you have any idea what a joke the west was that year? Marty might have had 10 shutouts over there. As it was...he had 3 on the finals and the took it from him, and equally from Friesen who had 10 damn goals and 5 in the finals including a series winner in the semis.
Marty had a better series and playoffs and more shutouts, and a shutout in game 7 and that bloated blimp got the Conn Smythe Trophy
Without Guegaire, those Ducks dont get to WCF, let alone game 7 of the Finals. Im a Colorado fan,& this was only 2 yrs after we beat you in game 7. But I was pulling hard for NJ in '03..& Guegerie to win Conn Smythe, cuz he definitely deserved it. Broduer is 1 of the All time greats-another Conn Smyth wouldnt matter that much for his legacy. But it means more to Gueguire-he wasnt an All time great. But that playoff run he was.
@@jasonsmith5226 How can Giguère deserve it but not Marty who had far better stats in the playoffs that year, and he won the series? Broduer never won the Conn Smythe, he was robbed.
He also had a much better supporting cast-NJ was a powerhouse. Anaheim was just an ordinary team, whos goalie stole games,& even series. I even heard Broduer say Guguire deserved it. Maybe he was just being classy. But thats the 1 time in my hockey watching life-started 1995-where I thought somebody on the losing team deserved it.Peter Forsberg in 2002 was the other time I thought it was possible.Missed the whole season, came back,& led the playoffs in scoring-despite the Avs not even making the Finals. But after the Avs lost 7-0 in game 7, (& 2-0 in game 6)-that ship sailed. But I dont remember too much controversy over Gugierre back then. But NHL fans from back then,know what Brodeur was all about. Other than Roy-theres no goalie in the last 25 yrs-Id take over Broduer. That includes Hasek,& Belfour-who made life miserable on my Avs.
Not to mention, with legal and normal sized goalie pads and not vs the soft ass west that year. Marty might have had 8 shutouts had we had JSG's road that year. The west was PATHETIC
Rob and Scott Neidermeyer would win the cup together with the Ducks in 07.
Why are they playing Star Wars music during the cup raise, that is insane 😂😂
Man i miss the ice
Devils fans booing Giguere, really?
You needed to be there and understand the franchises history with Bettman, and to rip into our celebration by not giving the HOF goalie his due
I can't believe I've never watched this
The year i was born lol
The celebration music was so cheesy throughout haha bon jovi and Star Wars
it’s almost like bon jovi is a new jersey icon. this comment was way more corny
If only the nets won the finals we would have had the devil and nets win in the same year oh well
Man let me tell u something I had a chance too see a eastern hockey team twice visiting both sides mom and dad parent's both grandpa on my dad's side lived in New Jersey Devil and then my mom's daddy liked the famous hated New York Islanders but we couldn't get the car started had major problem one of mygrandfather was going too call a taxi but you know I never got too see a hockey game ever @!!!!!!both sides of my moms and dads parent's are dead
Fun fact: last time when home team wore white and road time went colored.
Coming soon....
Biggest travesty was Marty not getting the Conn Smythe. I remember being so pissed when Geiguerre won it. Marty had 3 shutouts in the finals. That alone should’ve won him that crown.
03 never more
