"Mr. Devil" Ken Daneyko on Hoisting Three Cups, his Awkward Final Game, and Battle with Alcoholism
No player embodied the Devils' rise from hockey wilderness to Stanley Cup greatness more than Ken Daneyko. He witnessed the franchise's humble beginnings after the move from Colorado and watched as the Devils became a model organization. His tough-nosed attitude and willingness to pulverize his own body and others led him to being beloved by New Jersey fans and having his number retired by the team. In this wide-ranging interview, Daneyko tackles his public battle with alcoholism and his uncomfortable finale which came in Game 7 of the Cup Final. Daneyko handles analysis for the Devils on MSG and discusses this young core's playoff experience and win over the Rangers. Daneyko is a throwback to a rough and tumble-era of hockey and takes us back through his stories.
