See the puck. Be the puck.
In fact, I’d say he has a future in coaching ahead of him given his grasp of how to win hockey games:
“I try to give these guys a chance to win. I’ve done that in the first three games. At the end of the day, it’s hard to win games when you don’t score many goals. I try to be perfect but the other guy is a little more perfect than me.”
Luckily for the Devils, Brodeur knows how to literally do it all himself. If they can catch Jonathan Quick out of position, there’s a drop pass play in the book somewhere that allows Marty to nab the goose egg, the game winner and above all else, the glory.
Chris Cuthbert has a flair for the dramatic.
The first time I read the headline, I swear I thought it said “Brodeur may have future in cooking…”
I’m not going to tell you he doesn’t because I don’t want to pidgeonhole him.
When you described that drop pass play, I could have sworn you were talking about this:

Brodeur could pull that off, right?
There was a moment after Quick had been pulled where I could see that coming. It would have been amazing.
If there is someone reading this who DIDN’T want Brodeur to score with the net empty, you’re either a liar or someone who hates fun and probably kittens.
