The New Jersey Devils paid the ultimate tribute to their all-time leading scorer Saturday night.
Patrik Elias watched as his No. 26 ascended to the rafters at the Prudential Center following a lengthy pregame ceremony.
Elias helped the Devils win the Stanley Cup in 2000 and 2003. He's the franchise leader in goals, assists, points, game-winning goals, power-play goals, hat tricks, and shots on goal.
