Regular season

  • January 22, 1987 – A snowstorm brutally hit New Jersey as the Devils were scheduled to play the Calgary Flames at the Meadowlands. Only 334 fans showed up, making that game the "334 Club" game. To this day, it is the lowest-attended game in modern NHL history, not counting the 2020 NHL return to play playoffs. The Devils went on to win the game 7–5.[https://www.nhl.com/news/new-jersey-devils-played-in-front-of-334-fans-due-to-horrible-weather/c-651845 Historic storm produced history for Devils in '87] NHL.com.
