Patrik Elias had himself a night against the Rangers, factoring in on all six Devils goals with 2 goals and 4 assists. His highlight moment came on New Jersey’s fifth tally, when he kicked the puck right onto Jamie Langenbrunner’s stick for a gorgeous setup in the slot. Elias’ Game 1 performance set the tone for the Devils’ eventual sweep of the Rangers in the 2006 playoffs. He still holds the franchise record for career assists in both the regular season and the playoffs.
