Stationed in Section 114, along with my friend who became a STH for 10-11. My sister got 1/2 season tickets after Kovy signed! Now she can enjoy that Kovy jersey often. woohoo!
Is we have Kovy?

Long time reader, first time poster...I thought this was the night.
I'm so proud to be a Devil, to be from NJ, and to have Brodeur. My uncle, die-hard Ranger fan, just texted me, "Best ever, really, and that comes from a Rangers fan." Best Christmas present there!

this was only important enough for a sidebar headline on ESPN's front page and hockey page. On the hockey page Scott Burnside chats are still up.http://sports.espn.g...ameId=291221016
Associated Press
PITTSBURGH -- Martin Brodeur broke the NHL record with his 104th career shutout, and maybe the only surprise was how easily it came against the Stanley Cup champion Pittsburgh Penguins.
Marvelous Marty
Brodeur needed to make only a few difficult saves while breaking Terry Sawchuk's shutout record
Just another easy, gimme 35 save shutout for Marty.
Your unconditional rejection of violence makes you smugly think of yourselves as noble, as enlightened, but in reality it is nothing less than abject moral capitulation to evil. Unconditional rejection of self-defense, because you think its a supposed surrender to violence, leaves you no resort but begging for mercy or offering appeasement.

From ESPN's latest power rankings:
"If anyone still thinks Martin Brodeur shouldn't be the starter for Team Canada in the Olympics, please stop watching the game."

My humble take on Marty's record:
Brodeur clutches history, traps NHL shutout record at 104
Can't even recall how many of those shutouts I've watched. What a legend. Our kids' kids will still talk about him. Well, if the NHL's still around then.

Great writeup! I love the stats too, it is amazing to see 34 shutouts of Marty's are against the local rivals. I realize they play the most but that shows he consistently shows up to win. Brodeur seems to be averaging a 10% shutout game percentage against them.

It was on Yahoo's NHL page before the game even ended practically. Since Jester took over the NHL page there it has been my homepage. It is nice to see a Devils friendly sports site for a change.

Nice article.
Now that pretty much all the records have fallen a lot of the hoopla that came along with it will subside. The part that sucks about it is that the next time Marty takes center stage like this it will likely be when he is about to hang up his skates.
People can try to discredit him all they want. The numbers speak for themselves. He was very fortunate to get drafted by this organization but when you look at the run of excellence the Devils have ushered these past 16 years there is one constant through it all. Martin Brodeur.
When you can do something at the highest level of your profession with as much consistency and success as he has its pretty special. In my mind he is the best to ever play goal. I've watched to many of his games to think otherwise. Now lets go to work on that Conn Smythe.

It is a shame that he was robbed of the only piece of hardware he is really missing....when they gave the Conn Smythe to that sniffling crybaby Giguere. (can't hold not having a Hart trophy against a goaltender) Marty had 3 shutouts in the FINALS for crying out loud! Ridiculous robbery....MARTY'S BETTER! One of the best chants I have ever heard/been a part of. Continental was absolutely electric that night, and for that Game 7 alone that dump of an arena will always hold a special place in my fan heart!
