Ice Age on Our Marty
Brodeur has the goods to take home the Hart
Phil Coffey | NHL.com Editorial Director
For a moment, forget that Martin Brodeur is likely to leave the NHL at some point as the League's all-time leader in a number of categories. For this conversation, the past and future is irrelevant. We're talking the here and now.
This season, Brodeur has been so successful and so important to the New Jersey Devils that he gets Ice Age's nod for the Hart Trophy as the league's regular season MVP.
Already, the howls of protest are beginning in Pittsburgh, where Sidney Crosby has been nothing short of breathtaking.
More anguish is billowing from Washington, where the Capitals have every reason to tout the play of the exhilarating Alex Ovechkin.
Goaltending aficionados in Vancouver will scream out for Roberto Luongo, who has satisfied many of the same requirements for MVP that Brodeur has accomplished this season.
Cries also rising in protest from many NHL outposts. But they will fall on deaf ears here.
Brodeur has the Ice Age vote
