Early life

Stevens was born in Kitchener, Ontario; his father owned a paper products company, and was also a semi-professional Canadian football player. The City of Kitchener (ˈkɪtʃɨnɚ is a City in southwestern Ontario, Canada. A semi-professional athlete is one who is paid to play and thus is not an Amateur, but for whom Sport is not a full-time occupation generally because the In accordance with the Manual of Style (see) Canadian English is used throughout this article (see Canadian_English#Spelling) [3] Scott was the middle child of three brothers.

He and his brothers often played hockey in the house, ruining the furniture repeatedly. [7] He earned a spot on the Kitchener Junior B team. In fact, Stevens gave up an opportunity to tour Czechoslovakia with the Kitchener midget team in order to play Junior B hockey. Czechoslovakia may also refer to what is now the Czech Republic and Slovakia. [8] His play impressed scouts, and he was taken ninth overall by his hometown Kitchener Rangers in the 1981 Ontario Hockey League draft. The Kitchener Rangers are a Junior ice hockey team in the Ontario Hockey League that have called Kitchener Ontario, Canada their home since [3]

The 1981-82 Kitchener Rangers were a team loaded with several future NHL players; the defensive corps included Dave Shaw and Al MacInnis, Wendell Young was the team’s starting goaltender, and the top scoring line on the team featured Jeff Larmer, Brian Bellows, and Grant Martin. David Shaw (born May 25, 1964 in St Thomas Ontario) is a retired former professional Ice hockey player who played 769 National Hockey Allan "Al" MacInnis (born July 11 1963 is a former hockey defenceman who played 23 seasons in the National Hockey League for the Calgary Wendell Young (born August 1, 1963 in Halifax Nova Scotia) is a retired Canadian Professional Ice hockey Goaltender.

The Memorial Cup is the championship trophy of the Canadian Hockey League (CHL In addition, both played in the OHL All-Star Game. [10] Rangers coach Joe Crozier commented on Scott, "He’s come a long way this year. Joe Crozier (b February 19, 1929, in Winnipeg, Manitoba) is a former professional Ice hockey defenceman and . . He’s strong, tough, handles the puck well and has tremendous hockey sense. "[10] Stevens would go on to lead all rookie defencemen in scoring, and he was named the second best defensive defenceman and second best body-checker in a poll of OHL coaches. [3]

Early years in Washington

Stevens was taken fifth overall in the 1982 NHL Entry Draft by the Washington Capitals. The 1982 NHL Entry Draft was held at the Montreal Forum in Montreal Quebec. For the BAA team see Washington Capitols. For the ABA team see Washington Caps. Due to injuries to other players during training camp, Stevens made the team at 18 years old, and never played a game in the minor leagues. [11] He made an immediate impact, scoring on his first shot in his first NHL game. [3] Due to his commitment to the Capitals, he was unable to join Team Canada for the World Junior Championships, even though he had attended their training camp. The International Ice Hockey Federation World Under 20 Championship (colloquially known as the World Junior Hockey Championship WJHC) is an annual event organized by the [3] Although he only scored 25 points in his debut season, he made the All-Rookie Team. In addition, he led all rookie defencemen in penalty minutes. He finished third in the voting for the Calder Memorial Trophy, awarded to the league's Rookie of the Year. The Calder Memorial Trophy is an annual award given "to the player selected as the most proficient in his first year of competition in the National Hockey League [3] In fact, Stevens' early career was marked by high penalty minutes, and he led the Capitals in PIMs five times over his tenure with the team, eventually setting the team record for most career penalty minutes by a defenceman. [3]

Stevens' debut with the Capitals coincided with the team's first playoff appearance as a franchise. [12] During Stevens' first few seasons, the team emphasized a defense-first mindset for all of its players. Nowhere was this more obvious than the 1983-84 season, when Rod Langway won his second James Norris Memorial Trophy as best defenceman, Al Jensen and Pat Riggin combined to win the William Jennings Trophy for fewest goals allowed, and Doug Jarvis won the Frank J. Selke Trophy for best defensive forward; Bryan Murray was given the Jack Adams Award for best coach, as well. The 1983–84 NHL season was the 67th season of the National Hockey League.

Brian Engblom (b January 28, 1955 in Winnipeg, Manitoba) is a former Canadian Professional Ice hockey defenceman [14] In addition, Murray helped calm the fiery young Stevens, who would learn to fight less and play harder. [14] Stevens spoke fondly of his time with the Capitals years later, saying:

“ We had a great bunch of guys and we worked hard. We were great defensively. We might have been at times a little challenged scoring and we might have been a bit challenged in the goal at times. . . But there are no regrets. ”

—Scott Stevens, [14]

Stevens was not without offensive ability, however. In the 1984-85 season, he set a team record for defencemen by scoring 16 power play goals,[11] and tied a team record for goals by a defenceman with 21. The 1984–85 NHL season was the 68th season of the National Hockey League. Powerplay is a sporting term used in various games In Ice hockey, a team is said to be on a power play when at least one opposing player is serving [3] Stevens led all Washington defencemen in scoring three times. [15] In fact, his style led Murray to briefly considering moving Stevens to winger. Winger in hockey is a forward position of a player whose primary zone of play on the ice is along the outer playing area [11] During the 1987-88 season, Stevens finished second on the team in scoring with 12 goals and 60 assists for 72 points. The 1987–88 NHL season was the 71st season of the National Hockey League. [16] He ended up finishing second behind Ray Bourque in the voting for the Norris Trophy. Raymond Jean "Ray" Bourque (born December 28 1960 in Saint-Laurent, Quebec, now a district of Montreal) is a retired professional Ice hockey The James Norris Memorial Trophy is awarded annually to the National Hockey League 's top " defense player who demonstrates throughout the season the greatest all-round [3] Over eight seasons with the Caps, Stevens netted 98 goals and 429 points in 601 games. [11] Stevens also played in two All-Star Games in 1985 and 1989. The National Hockey League All-Star Game (Match des Étoiles de la Ligue Nationale de Hockey is an exhibition Ice hockey game that traditionally marks the midway The 1984–85 NHL season was the 68th season of the National Hockey League. The 1988–89 NHL season was the 72nd season of the National Hockey League. [17]

Controversy in St. Louis

After eight seasons in Washington, Stevens felt it was time to move on. [14] The St. Louis Blues courted Stevens, and offered him a four-year deal worth $5. The St Louis Blues are a professional Ice hockey team based in St 145 million. Since Stevens was a restricted free agent, Washington had the option to match the offer sheet; they declined, however, and received five first-round picks as compensation. In the National Hockey League, an offer sheet is a contract offered to a restricted Free agent by a team other than the one for which he played during the prior season [3][11]

The Devils were awarded Scott Stevens as compensation after the Blues signed away Brendan Shanahan (pictured).

Stevens' signing had far-reaching ramifications on player contracts in the NHL. At the time, the deal made Stevens the highest-paid defenceman in the league. [14] In addition, the deal included a $1. 4 million signing bonus. [3] Several defencemen considered superior players to Stevens, including Ray Bourque and Chris Chelios, were not making that kind of money, and Capitals defenceman Kevin Hatcher held out until he received a contract similar to that of Stevens. Raymond Jean "Ray" Bourque (born December 28 1960 in Saint-Laurent, Quebec, now a district of Montreal) is a retired professional Ice hockey Chris Chelios (born Christos Kostas Tselios on January 25 1962 in Chicago, Illinois) is an American professional Ice hockey Kevin Hatcher (b 9 September 1966, Detroit Michigan) is a retired American Professional Ice hockey defenseman who [14] General managers worried that these players would begin demanding bigger contracts. The players did in fact ask for more money, and it was this escalation that was one of the factors in the 1994-95 NHL lockout several seasons later. The 1994–95 NHL lockout came after a year of NHL hockey that was played without a Collective bargaining agreement. [3][11]

On the ice, Stevens was named captain of the Blues. [11] He scored 5 goals and added 44 assists for 49 points, good enough for fifth on a team led by Brett Hull and Adam Oates. Brett Andrew Hull (born August 9, 1964 in Belleville, Ontario and raised in Chicago, Winnipeg and Vancouver) is a Adam Oates (born August 27 1962 in Weston, Ontario) is a retired professional Ice hockey and lacrosse player [18] Stevens made the Campbell Conference All-Star Team as well. [17] Unfortunately, the Blues were eliminated in the second round of the playoffs. [19]

Stevens would not get an opportunity to continue his success in St. Louis, however. In the offseason following the 1990-91 NHL season, the Blues signed Brendan Shanahan from the New Jersey Devils. The 1990–91 NHL season was the 74th regular season of the National Hockey League. Brendan Frederick Shanahan (born 23 January 1969 in Mimico, Ontario) is a Canadian professional Ice hockey right wing The New Jersey Devils are a professional Ice hockey team based in Newark New Jersey. [14] Much like Stevens the year before, Shanahan was a restricted free agent, and thus the Devils were entitled to compensation. The teams could not agree on what the compensation was; the Blues offered goalie Curtis Joseph, forward Rod Brind'Amour, and two draft picks, while the Devils wanted Stevens. Curtis Shayne Joseph (born April 29 1967 in Keswick Ontario, Canada as Curtis Munro) is a professional Ice hockey Goaltender, currently Rod Jean Brind'Amour (born August 9, 1970 in Ottawa, Ontario) is a Canadian professional Ice hockey forward and team [14] The case went to arbitration, and a judge ruled that Stevens was to be awarded to the Devils in September of 1991. [20][3]

Initially, Stevens refused to report to the Devils for training camp. The Devils were already worried, after captain Kirk Muller walked out of camp. Kirk Christopher Muller (born Feb 8, 1966 in Kingston, ON, Canada) is a retired Professional Ice hockey centre [21] Stevens and his wife had made plans to settle in St. Louis, and Stevens wanted to end his career with the Blues. [20][21] In addition, Stevens was concerned about the apparent lack of unity in the organization, citing Muller's walkout as proof. [20] Several Devils players were upset over the feeling that Stevens was being forced upon the team; some players, including Ken Daneyko, wanted more money, while other players wanted general manager Lou Lamoriello to trade Stevens. Ken Daneyko (born April 17, 1964 in Edmonton, Alberta) is a retired Ice hockey defenceman who played his entire career Louis "Lou" Lamoriello (born October 21, 1942) is the CEO, President, and General manager of the New Jersey Devils [21] Stevens would eventually report to the Devils three weeks later. [22]

Stevens finished his first season in New Jersey fifth on the team in scoring[23], good enough for a spot on the Second All-Star Team. [5] He earned a spot on the All-Star roster for the second consecutive season; he would go on to miss only one All-Star game for the remainder of his career as a Devil. [17] In the offseason, Stevens replaced Bruce Driver as team captain, a title he would hold until his retirement. Bruce Driver (born April 29, 1962 in Toronto, Ontario) is a former Professional Ice hockey defenceman who played 15 seasons [15]

After another season leading all Devils defencemen in scoring,[24] Stevens stepped up his offensive game in 1993-94. The 1992–93 NHL season was the 76th regular season of the National Hockey League. The 1993–94 NHL season was the 77th regular season of the National Hockey League. He posted 18 goals and 60 assists totaling 78 points, good enough for the team lead. [15]. He won the NHL Plus-Minus Award, finishing with +53; only Vladimir Konstantinov has led the league with a higher plus/minus rating since Stevens' win. The NHL Plus-Minus Award is a trophy awarded annually by the National Hockey League to the Ice hockey "player having played a minimum of 60 games who leads Vladimir Konstantinov (Владимир Константинов born March 19, 1967, in Murmansk, USSR) is a former professional hockey [3][25] In addition, under his leadership, the Devils made it all the way to the Conference Finals against their arch-rivals, the New York Rangers, where they fell in double overtime of Game 7 thanks to Stephane Matteau. The New York Rangers are a professional Ice hockey team based in New York, New York, United States. Stéphane Matteau (born September 2 1969 in Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec) is a former National Hockey League player [15][26] Stevens came up short in his bid for the Norris Trophy as well, finishing as runner-up to Ray Bourque; the four-vote difference was the closest in Norris Trophy voting history.

After the 1993-94 season, Stevens was a potential free agent. Officials from the St. Louis Blues discussed a return to the team with Stevens, and he signed an offer sheet worth $17 million over four years with the team on July 4, 1994. [27] Five days later, the Devils matched the offer, and thus Stevens remained in New Jersey. However, unbeknownst to the Devils, Stevens had already heard from St. Louis management before the free agency period began, which was illegal under NHL policy. After a five year investigation, the league fined the Blues $1. 5 million USD, and awarded the Devils two St. Louis first-round draft picks. [3][27] Devils general manager Lou Lamoriello felt the punishment was not enough; he wanted five first-round draft picks plus damages. Louis "Lou" Lamoriello (born October 21, 1942) is the CEO, President, and General manager of the New Jersey Devils Despite the investigation, there was no evidence that Stevens was aware of any wrongdoing. [27]

Despite the heartbreak of 1994, Stevens and the Devils would not be denied in 1995. The 1994–95 NHL season was the 78th Regular season of the National Hockey League. After the season was delayed due to an owners' lockout, the Devils were off to a slow start, winning only 9 of their first 24 games. The 1994–95 NHL lockout came after a year of NHL hockey that was played without a Collective bargaining agreement. [28] However, the Devils managed to hold their own in the Eastern Conference, and finished in the fifth playoff spot. [28] After playoff victories over the Boston Bruins, Pittsburgh Penguins, and Philadelphia Flyers, the Devils faced the Detroit Red Wings in the Stanley Cup Finals. The Boston Bruins are a professional Ice hockey team based in Boston Massachusetts. The Pittsburgh Penguins are a professional Ice hockey team based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The Philadelphia Flyers are a professional Ice hockey team based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Detroit Red Wings are a professional Ice hockey team based in Detroit Michigan, and current Stanley Cup champions [28] The Devils shocked the hockey world by sweeping the Presidents' Trophy-winning Wings for the franchise's first hockey championship. The Presidents' Trophy is an award presented by the National Hockey League (NHL to the team which finishes with the most points in the league during the regular [28] Stevens' reputation as a hard hitter was reinforced in Game 2, where he leveled Vyacheslav Kozlov with a body check that knocked Kozlov out of the game temporarily;[29] it was later determined that Kozlov suffered a concussion. Vyacheslav "Slava" Anatolevich Kozlov (Вячеслав Анатольевич Козлов born May 3, 1972 in Voskresensk, U [30] Stevens then famously turned to Wings forward Dino Ciccarelli, who was upset about the check, and said "You're next!"[31]

1996-1999

The Devils expected to defend their Stanley Cup title the following season. Dino Ciccarelli (born February 8, 1960 in Sarnia, Ontario) is a Canadian former professional hockey player who played 19 seasons in The 1995–96 NHL season was the 79th Regular season of the National Hockey League. Unfortunately for them, they became the first team in 26 years to win a Stanley Cup and fail to make the playoffs the following year. [32] Stevens voiced the team's disappointment, saying "After winning the Cup, you expect to definitely be in the playoffs the next year. . . Maybe it was just a wakeup call to get back on track. "[33]

Stevens started the 1996-97 season on a bit of a sour note, as he was suspended for one game following a high-sticking penalty against Igor Larionov during the first game of the season in which he drew blood. The 1996–97 NHL season was the 80th Regular season of the National Hockey League. Igor Nikolayevich Larionov (Игорь Николаевич Ларионов born December 3, 1960 in Voskresensk, Soviet Union now [3] The team, however, returned to a solid style of play, and finished the season atop the Atlantic Division, though they would be eliminated in the playoffs once again by the arch-rival Rangers. The NHL 's Atlantic Division was formed in 1993 as part of the Eastern Conference in a league realignment the predecessor of which was the Patrick Division [34] Stevens finished second on the team among defencemen in scoring behind Scott Niedermayer. Scott Niedermayer (born August 31, 1973) is a Canadian [35]

"For the most part, it seems to go with the guy who's got a lot of points. . . I don't think about it as much as I used to. I've been asked to play a certain role here, which doesn't help in that area. But I feel that gives the team a chance to win every night. That's the satisfaction I get. "
Scott Stevens, on not winning the Norris Trophy[36]

Stevens' leadership continued into the next season. The 1997–98 NHL season was the 81st Regular season of the National Hockey League. He signed a contract extension with the Devils, stating at the time that he wanted to finish his career in New Jersey. [1] Stevens was especially important to the Devils' defensive corps, as longtime Devil Ken Daneyko was undergoing rehabilitation for alcoholism. Alcoholism is a term with multiple and sometimes conflicting definitions [1] However, he suffered a hip pointer injury against the Tampa Bay Lightning, and missed several games. A hip pointer is a Contusion (bruise on the Pelvis caused by a direct blow to an Iliac crest. The Tampa Bay Lightning is a professional ice hockey team based in Tampa Florida. [3] Stevens once again had a good defensive season, although his lack of scoring kept him out of consideration for the Norris Trophy. [36] The Devils finished as the top seed in the Eastern Conference, but were eliminated in the first round by the Ottawa Senators. The Eastern Conference (Conférence de l'Est is one of two conferences in the National Hockey League (NHL used to divide teams The Ottawa Senators (Les Sénateurs d'Ottawa are a professional Ice hockey team based in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada [37]

For the 1998-99 season, the Devils made several changes, the biggest of which was hiring Robbie Ftorek as coach to replace Jacques Lemaire. The 1998–99 NHL season was the 82nd regular season of the National Hockey League. Robert Brian Ftorek (born January 2, 1952 in Needham Massachusetts) is a former NHL player and coach Jacques Gerard Lemaire (born September 7, 1945 in Lasalle, Quebec) is a former Ice hockey forward and current coach of [38] The team continued its focus on defence, as the solid corps of Stevens, Daneyko, and Niedermayer finished with plus-minuses of +29, +27, and +26, respectively. Unfortunately, the team was once again eliminated in the first round of the playoffs, this time by the Pittsburgh Penguins. The Pittsburgh Penguins are a professional Ice hockey team based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. [38]

The 1999-2000 Devils focused more on offense, a fact reinforced by their 251 goals scored, good enough for second in the league. The New Jersey Devils 1999–2000 season saw the Devils win their second Stanley Cup championship. [39] With four players scoring over 50 points, including rookie Scott Gomez's team leading 51 assists, Stevens' 29 points were only good enough for tenth on the team, and third among defencemen behind Niedermayer and Brian Rafalski.

Just as in 1995, they met their rivals, the Philadelphia Flyers, in the Eastern Conference Finals. The Philadelphia Flyers are a professional Ice hockey team based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. After getting behind in the series three games to one, the Devils managed to win games five and six, setting the stage for game seven in Philadelphia.

The Devils were keen to repeat as Stanley Cup champions at the start of the 2000-01 NHL season. The 2000–01 NHL season was the 84th Regular season of the National Hockey League. Led by Patrik Elias' 96 points, a franchise record, and Alexander Mogilny's team-leading 43 goals, the team finished first in the conference. Patrik Eliáš ( English Patrik Elias) (born April 13, 1976 in Třebíč, Czechoslovakia) is a Czech Professional Alexander Gennadevitch Mogilny (Александр Геннадиевич Могильный Aleksandr Gennadijevič Mogil'nyj) born on February 18, 1969 [47] After defeating Carolina, Toronto, and Pittsburgh in the playoffs, the Devils once again made the Finals, this time against the Colorado Avalanche.

The Colorado Avalanche are a professional Ice hockey team based in Denver Colorado, United States Despite being up three games to two, however, the Devils could not finish off the Avalanche, and lost the series in seven games. [47] Stevens was once again denied the Norris Trophy, as he finished third in the voting. [3]

Stevens finished the next season with his lowest scoring total in his career[48], though he did become the youngest player ever to reach the 1,500 games played total. The New Jersey Devils 2001–02 season saw the Devils attempt to make up for the 4–3 Stanley Cup finals loss to the Colorado Avalanche the previous [3] The Devils, however, fell in the first round of the playoffs to the Hurricanes, who went on to lose to Detroit in the Stanley Cup finals. [49]

Stevens and the Devils once again had success in 2002-03, finishing first in the division. [50] In addition, Stevens was named as captain of the Eastern Conference All-Star team for the first time[51], and finished the season with the fewest penalty minutes over a full season in his career. [48] The Devils made their way through the playoffs, knocking off Boston, Tampa Bay, and Ottawa, to face the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim in the Finals. The Boston Bruins are a professional Ice hockey team based in Boston Massachusetts. The Tampa Bay Lightning is a professional ice hockey team based in Tampa Florida. The Ottawa Senators (Les Sénateurs d'Ottawa are a professional Ice hockey team based in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada The Anaheim Ducks are a professional Ice hockey team based in Anaheim California, USA. [50] The Devils and Stevens had a minor scare in Game 3 of the semifinals against Tampa Bay, when he took a Pavel Kubina slapshot off the side of his head and was forced to leave the game. Pavel Kubina (born April 15, 1977, in Čeladná, Czechoslovakia) is a professional Ice hockey defenceman, currently playing Although there was uncertainty whether Stevens would return for Game 4, Stevens in fact returned, and did not miss a game throughout the remainder of the playoffs. [31] In Game 2 of the Finals, he set the record for most playoff games by a defenceman, breaking the record by his former coach, Larry Robinson. [52] As he had done in so many previous playoff series, Stevens created a defining moment with a check, laying out Ducks star forward Paul Kariya in Game Six. Paul Tetsuhiko Kariya (born October 16, 1974 in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada) is a professional Ice hockey player However, Kariya came back shortly thereafter and scored en route to a Ducks victory, forcing a seventh game. [50] The Devils blanked the Ducks in Game Seven, 3-0, to win their third Stanley Cup in nine years. Stevens' appearance in Game Seven tied Patrick Roy's record for appearances in Game Sevens, with 13. Patrick Jacques Roy (ʁwa (born October 5 1965 in Sainte-Foy, Quebec, Canada is a retired Ice hockey goaltender [53] Despite the play of Stevens, Martin Brodeur, Jamie Langenbrunner, and Jeff Friesen, the Conn Smythe Trophy went to Ducks goaltender Jean-Sebastien Giguere; some speculated that there were too many worthy Devils candidates, resulting in a split vote among sportswriters. Jean-Sébastien "Jiggy" Giguère (born May 16 1977 in Montreal, Quebec, Canada) is a French Canadian Professional [54]

The 2003-04 NHL season would prove to be the last for Stevens. The 2003–04 NHL season was the 87th Regular season of the National Hockey League. Before ending the season, he surpassed former teammate Larry Murphy as the NHL's all-time leader in games played by a defenceman, when he appeared in his 1,616th game in November. [3] Unfortunately, he missed several games in January with the flu, and while he was out, he was diagnosed with post-concussion syndrome. Post-concussion syndrome, also known as postconcussive syndrome or PCS, is a set of symptoms that a person may experience for weeks months or occasionally years Despite missing the second half of the season, he was still voted in as a starter for the Eastern Conference All-Star team. [3] Scott Niedermayer filled in as captain in Stevens' absence, but the loss of Stevens, as well as Daneyko, who had retired before the season, was too much of a loss on the defensive corps, and the Devils fell to the Flyers in the first round of the playoffs. [55] In the off-season, Stevens recovered and continued to work out, and expected to return to the Devils for the 2004-05 NHL season. The 2004–05 NHL season was the 88th Regular season of the National Hockey League (NHL [56] However, the owners' lockout shut out the entire season, and Stevens retired on September 6, 2005. The 2004–05 NHL lockout resulted in the cancellation of what would have been the 88th season of the National Hockey League (NHL [3]

Stevens left a lasting legacy on the NHL. Referred to as "Mr. Devil"[1], Stevens was the longest reigning captain in Devils history. [58] Later on in his career, he mentored the younger Devils defencemen like Colin White and Brian Rafalski, who was Stevens' defensive linemate. John Colin White (born December 12, 1977) is a professional Ice hockey player with the New Jersey Devils of the National Hockey League Brian Rafalski (born September 28, 1973, in Dearborn, Michigan) is an American professional Ice hockey player who plays [59] Longtime teammate Scott Niedermayer said of Stevens, he was "not the most vocal guy around", but he would talk to players when it was necessary. Scott Niedermayer (born August 31, 1973) is a Canadian [59] Stevens was honored by the Devils by becoming the first player in team history to have his number retired by the team; his #4 was raised to the rafters on February 3, 2006. [57]

Stevens was also remembered as a hard hitter, leveling players who crossed open ice with their heads down. Among the victims of Stevens' body checks were Slava Kozlov, Eric Lindros, Paul Kariya, Shane Willis, and Ron Francis, with whom Stevens was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2007. Vyacheslav "Slava" Anatolevich Kozlov (Вячеслав Анатольевич Козлов born May 3, 1972 in Voskresensk, U Eric Bryan Lindros (born 28 February 1973 in London, Ontario, Canada) is a retired professional Ice hockey player Paul Tetsuhiko Kariya (born October 16, 1974 in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada) is a professional Ice hockey player Shane Willis (born 13 June 1977 in Edmonton, Alberta) is a Canadian Ice hockey right winger in the National Hockey League. Ronald "Ron" Michael Francis Jr (born March 1 1963 in Sault Ste [60] Some players have accused Stevens of playing cheap. After his check on Willis, Carolina Hurricanes goaltender Arturs Irbe said Stevens was "trying to kill [Willis] or put him out of the playoffs"; Stevens responded, "What kind of respect do I get?. The Carolina Hurricanes are a professional Ice hockey team based in Raleigh, North Carolina. Artūrs Irbe (born February 2, 1967) is a former Latvian professional Hockey Goaltender in the National Hockey League who . . Just because I'm a physical player, it's O. K. to come at me and do what you want? Hey, it's a hockey game. It's not figure skating. You know what? I can take a hit and I can give a hit. I don't care who it is. No one gets a free ride out there. I don't get a free ride, and no one gets a free ride from me. "[60] On the other hand, Kozlov did not blame Stevens for his hit, and said he was a clean player. [7] Despite his penchant for hits, Stevens finished his career with only four elbowing penalties in the regular season. [15] He was often credited with changing the momentum of a game not with a goal, but with a hard check. [61][7] He was named the fifth most fearsome player in NHL history by the Sporting News in 2001. Sporting News (previously The Sporting News, and known colloquially as TSN) is an American -based Sports [62] Dion Phaneuf is often compared to Stevens, and says he idolizes Stevens' style of play. Dion Phaneuf (born April 10, 1985 in Edmonton, Alberta) is a professional Canadian Ice hockey defenceman [63]

Personal life

Stevens met his wife, Donna, while he was playing junior hockey with Kitchener. [4] The couple have three children; Kaitlin, Ryan and Kara. [64] Scott is a fan of the outdoors, and spent his summers away from hockey at Lake Catchacoma.
