When older New Jersey Devils fans hear the name Tom Kurvers, most of them smile. Kurvers was the player the Devils traded to the Toronto Maple Leafs in one of the most lopsided trades in the history of the league. He was also someone who had a lot of really fun moments with the Devils in his short time with the franchise.

Before that trade became part of his legacy, Kurvers was an incredibly talented prospect that turned into a pretty good NHL player.
