It certainly was not lost on the New Jersey goaltending great as the tried to tie Patrick Roy, his childhood idol, with all time with his 551st win. | Also see: Is Brodeur The Greatest? |
Not only did Brodeur have a chance to do it in Montreal, where Roy reigned supreme for years, but he had a chance to do it with Roy in attendance.
Brodeur seized the moment and led his Devils' to a 3-1 victory.
Brodeur will now have a chance to become the winningest goalie in NHL history when the Devils host Chicago on Tuesday - St. Patrick's Day, of all days.
Isn't it ironic . . . don't you think? That Martin Brodeur is such a little devil!
