Best Answer

The team that became the Devils originated as the Kansas City Scouts. The Scouts played only briefly in Kansas City before moving to Denver and being named the Colorado Rockies. The Rockies were sold to new owners after a few years and were moved to the New Jersey area and renamed the Devils.
