Nieuwendyk Stays Loyal to New Team

According to a FOX Sports Net TV report...
The "It takes some serious grapefruits to pull that stunt", in a pre-game ceremony against the New Jersey Devils at home against the Toronto Maple Leafs, the Devils reportedly offered former teammate Joe Nieuwendyk a place on the Ceremony to collect the 2002-03 Stanley Cup commemorative ring.

Nieuwendyk responded by saying "Uh-uh... new team; different attitude!" as a new member of the opposing Maple Leafs.

The Devils and Maple Leafs skated to a 2-2 tie as Toronto gave up a goal in the last seconds of the game.
