Steve Bernier: Past News Updates ( u25b2 View most recent update )
Bernier established himself as one of the Devils' top checking forwards, notching 15 points in 47 contests. Along with linemates Stephen Gionta and Ryan Carter, he regularly skated against some of the opposition's top lines and likely will fill a similar role this season. His offensive upside is limited because he receives little power play ice time.
Bernier joined the Devils last fall on a tryout basis, but signed with the big club after the All-Star break where he proceeded to grab a goal and five assists in 32 games.
