By MSG.com  | | Scott Stevens led the Devils to three Stanley Cups (AP) | EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) -For once, Scott Stevens wasn't the toughest guy on the ice. "I think this is the first time I've ever felt intimidated on this ice surface," the three-time Stanley Cup-winning defenseman told a sold-out crowd Friday night before the New Jersey Devils made him the first player in franchise history to have his number retired. Stevens' No. 4 was raised to the rafters of Continental Airlines Arena before New Jersey's game against the Carolina Hurricanes. The ceremony lasted a little over 30 minutes, or nearly an hour shorter than a similar gala honoring former New York Rangers great Mark Messier at Madison Square Garden last month.
