Leetch is not a neccesarily a lock yet. I mean Mike Vernon has won the Smyth but I would not call him a lock yet. Stevens DEFINITELY is. He's done much more than Leetcy could ever dream of. Stevens one of two players to play this long and be a + every year. The other one, Larry Robinson. Stevens' leadership for all the teams he has played for is obviously noted, as Leetch's was terribly questioned. Don't tell me Stevens didn't produce in his career. The guy has one less point than Leetch so far, and has kept up his defensive responsibilities. We all know Leetch is great playing defense. I believe in The Sporting News this week as Stevens the toughest guy in the history of the NHL, beating out Gordie Howe. This coming from a writer that is primarily a Ranger Fan. Leetch isn't anywehre to be found in that category.

Brian Leetch...Scott Stevens...Who's going to the Hall of Fame? Uh huh, thought so




Their both First Ballot Hall of Famers, so what is your point?

I hope you are not hinting that Stevens will be a Hall of Famer, and Leetch is not, because that would just be plain out silly.

Cant we all just get along, LOL, but seriously, ill admit defeat, cuz we lost o a very good Rangers team yesterday, even thouhg we all know that if those fights weren't broken up by those pussies in black and whote, the Deivls would have knocked the snot outta the Rangers players and the rest of the Devils team would have been more fired up. But regardless, i give Guy Hebert a lot of credit he played a good game yesterday and won. Thats it, end of story. Spider even though we r both huge Devils fans, let it go man. it was bound to happen sooner or later. Don't worry, next year they'll just start a new streak al over again. hehe. oh and one more thing, I guarantee, if Stevens and Leetch retired right now, Stevens would get into the hall before Leetch.

You're unbelievable. Stevens is DEFINITELY a shoe in for a first ballot no question. Arguably the best All-round defeseman for the last 20 years. Others up there of course are Bourque and others, but Leetch is a joke.

Bob you should just give up. Even your fellow Devil fans think you are a tool.

You saying Brian Leetch is a joke, only makes you look even more foolish.

I dont know why you have such a hard on for Stevens, you make him out to be better than Bobby Orr, hes a solid Career Defensmen, hes a Hall of Fame Defensemen.

You can argue all day who's better. The fact is they are two TOTALLY different types of Defensemen. Leetch will not be confused for the Greastest Defensive player of all time, but on the other hand he is one of the Greatest Offensive Defensmen ever to play the game. Stevens is a Great Defensive Defensmen, but he cant put the puck in the ocean.

As a Ranger fan I absolutely HATE Scott Stevens, but I respect what he can do, and what he has done for his team, apparently Bob you cant take your Devil glasses off for 2 minututes, because you have to call Brian Leetch a joke, when I guarantee if he played 12 years for your team, you would be praising him.

Well I guess it is because offensive numbers have went down concentrating on actually playing D, not like Leetch who wants the points. Defensively, I'd rather Lyle Odelein than leetcy.

Bob give it up -- you just proved you are A BLIND devil fan --- and Neidmayer is better than leetch right? Oh and the best D-man in the league right now is Prongerhere are my list of top. (if I was starting a team so I'll give ya 6)
Pronger/Blake
Leetch/Lidstrom
Bourque/Stevens

Look I am A NYR fan, but even a biger hockey fan so I can judge all teams talent and talk about it with out NYR glasses. Now when you can take off your NJD colored glasses and talk hockey please do so. What is next? Bobby Holik is better than Messier?

uh oh Raven, he got you! He called you Raisin! I dont think you can come back from that one.

And Pronger and Blake wouldnt work because neither has worn a Devils uniform, and neither is the name of Spiderbob's Dream Man, Scott Stevens.

I think you got two big skating defenseman, but are not exactly speed demons. A Kariya, Niedermayer could probably beat them

“I'd rather Lyle Odelein than leetcy.”

First of all get his name right.

Secondly, this qualifies as one of the most asinine statements I’ve ever seen on this board.

There isn’t one GM in the NHL that wouldn’t trade Odelein for Leetch straight up. I know you said defensively, but that's an ignorant statement, even from a Devil's fan.
