Description: CONTINENTAL AIRLINES ARENAContinental Airlines Arena, originally known as the Brendan Byrne Arena, was a multi-purpose indoor venue located in the Meadowlands Sports Complex in East Rutherford, New Jersey. Opened in 1981, the arena was a state-of-the-art facility for its time and served as a centerpiece for professional sports in the New York metropolitan area. It became the home of the New Jersey Devils of the NHL and the New Jersey Nets of the NBA, hosting some of the most memorable moments in both franchises' histories.For the Devils, who moved into the arena in 1982, Continental Airlines Arena became synonymous with their rise to NHL prominence. The team won three Stanley Cups (1995, 2000, and 2003) during their time there, led by legendary players such as Martin Brodeur, one of the greatest goaltenders in hockey history, Scott Stevens, a hard-hitting defenseman and team captain, and Scott Niedermayer, a smooth-skating, offensive defenseman. The Devils’ defensive, disciplined style of play, perfected under head coach Jacques Lemaire, made them one of the NHL’s most dominant teams in the late 1990s and early 2000s.The New Jersey Nets also had significant moments in the arena, particularly during the early 2000s when they reached back-to-back NBA Finals in 2002 and 2003. The team was led by superstar point guard Jason Kidd, whose exceptional playmaking and leadership transformed the franchise into an Eastern Conference powerhouse. Other notable players from this era included Vince Carter, known for his electrifying dunks, and Kenyon Martin, a rugged forward who was instrumental in their Finals runs.The arena also hosted numerous concerts and events, making it a versatile venue beyond sports. By 2007, both the Devils and Nets had relocated to newer facilities, and the arena eventually ceased operations in 2015. However, for fans, Continental Airlines Arena remains a site of cherished memories, representing an era when New Jersey's sports teams reached the pinnacle of success.Unused 4" x 6" continental size chrome postcard.
