I covered last year's playoffs and every chance I got posted a picture of Devils goalie Martin Brodeur with a puck in the net behind him. It's not that I hate him or anything — well, maybe it is — but I thought I'd continue the tradition over there of posting my favorite pictures of him.
That just makes a person feel good, doesn't it?
Not that you were wondering, but Vinny Lecavalier scored on him twice last night in the Bolts' 3-1 in the season opener. GO BOLTS!
All right, now, just so you guys know, I'm not meaning to be a complete ass here. Just thought it would be funny. I have loads of respect for Brodeur as a goaltender, but he's always been a Lightning killer and so it just brings me so much joy when my Bolts can get a puck by him.
woooo go lightning!
ReplyDeletelecavalier 2 goals, st louis 3 assists and prospal 1 goal 1 assist...great start.
I like seeing Brodeur get thumped too. Nice win and nice way to start the season.
ReplyDeleteBrodeur can lose 6-0 one night and get a shootout the next game.
ReplyDeleteForgot to say that last night I tried all of the new jersey's at a local store.
ReplyDeleteSeeing them and wearing them are two different things. I think that only 3-4 teams stand out of the crowd.
Surprisingly, the canucks jersey is superb. The other one that got my attention were the Devils one. A great red and black combo.
The blues are very good, but the dissapointment came from the Flames. What a donwgrade. That blue patch just is out of place.
Tampa is right there as a good jersey. Ottawa is a practice jersey, and the form of the logo is no help either.
Buffalo is a disaster, as we all know. And if you want a great jersey, go to the no-brainer route and buy a Detroit one. Beautiful.
broduer sucks, hasek is where its at.
ReplyDeleteBrodeur has had such a fantastic career and as a Flyers fan that kills me - and has frequently killed my team. That being said, he's starting to look just a little more human. I first noticed it towards the end of last year and while I mean no disrespect to the Lightning - who played very well last night - I think the beginng of the fall might be at hand for the mighty Brodeur. A first ballot HOFer for sure, I definitely won't lose any sleep if he and the Devils struggle!
ReplyDeleteI abdolutley love it when my hurricanes pull him out of the net.. hes been pulled from a game 3 times in the past 2 seasons for us =]
ReplyDelete[including a 7-2 win last season]
Still love him though!
he was great for my fantasy team last year.
ReplyDeletei also had Luongo AND Mason
how sick was that?
Brodeur isn't Daren Puppa...but he's still pretty good
ReplyDeleteI guess there weren't very many pictures to post last year ;)
ReplyDeleteGo Marty!
i feel your pain chris... i'm a flyers fan... he doesn't like to kill any other team as much as he enjoys killing the flyers.
ReplyDeleteAs a Devils fan, I actually take this as a compliment. I'd love to have a well-read blog and be able to post photos every time Jagr misses the net, Gomez gets knocked on his arse, Gagne gets flattened, or Crosby cries after failing to draw a penalty.
ReplyDeleteHere's hoping you have very few Marty photos to post this year!
