The New Jersey Devils, I believe, are the first team having more U.S. born
players(12) than Canadian born players to win the Stanley Cup. This also
indicates that there are many former college players(13) on the Devils. I have
listed, to the best of my knowledge, these players, their birthplaces, and the
schools where they played. I believe that this speaks well of the caliber of
college hockey.
