Devils, Avalanche Mourn Claude Lemieux's Death

The Devils and Avalanche are united by more than old scars and old series - they are now mourning Claude Lemieux, one of the most unmistakable names of his era. That kind of news hits differently in two locker rooms that still remember exactly what he meant, and how he played when the games got mean. The story points back to a player who left a real imprint on both franchises, and those memories do not fade quietly in this league.
