Playoff Towel archive?

Does anyone know of a site that has pics of all the Devils playoff towels through the years? I just dug out an old one of mine (for a little good luck voodoo) but I can't remember what year it's from. I'm pretty sure it was the NJ-Pittsburgh first round series from '93. (and describing it as a "towel" is being generous. It's more like a handkerchief)

Can't confirm the years (except for last one), but ebay has a ton of pics of towels ppl have for sale

For about 5 or so years in the early-mid 00s they gave out pom poms or thunder sticks and occasionally towels, more so the pom pom/thunder stick route

I have a number ranging from the late 90s to present hanging throughout my house

Mine is like this one, but in red. I'm positive now it's from '93 versis Pittsburgh. Pens won in 5 games. I went to the only game NJ won.

Mine all sit in a closet.

Only reason I keep them is they may be useful in my "Devil's themed room/basement" one day. I have a historical collection of Devil's items that's pretty impressive, right down to first ever preseason game ticket, first NHL regular season game ticket, program etc....

I collect and treat them as good luck! Usually it seems to work

Every game this year where I didn't get a towel they lost.

This might be a good place to ask. Does anyone have an extra from round 1 this year? I was at games 4 and 6. Lost the game 4 towel in the celebration after Henriques OT winner against the Rags. Chucked the game 6 towel during the celebration of Zajac's winner in OT. Anyone have an extra?

The "towels" from 2001 were the absolute worst. I still have a couple and they are closer to rough sandpaper and stretchy material than anything close to resembling cotton.

I really wish they gave out towels for the last cup in '03. Watching those highlights and seeing thunder sticks just doesn't look right to me.

They actually did hand out towels (well cloth towels). No one used them though. I'll dig mine up and post a picture.
