Brodeur Ties Record With 551st Win Against Habs


Martin Brodeur and the New Jersey Devils won 3-1 over the Montreal Canadiens at The Bell Center. With Patrick Roy in attendence, Brodeur tied the record for most career wins by an NHL goalie with 551. Now it's on to New Jersey who next face the Chicago Blackhawks on St. Patrick's Day, Tuesday, March 17th. Brodeur's quest to become the best all time goaltender continues and you can find updates at Martin Brodeur, a Squidoo website I've made in tribute to Brodeur and his many accomplishments.

Brodeur is also looking to become surpass legendary goalie Terry Sawchuk's once impossible 103 career shutouts. He has 2 shutouts already since he returned from missing 50-games as he recovered from a serious elbow injury he got in the 10th game of this season. It looks like Marty was chomping at the bit to get back into the net for the Devils who are threatening for the overall league lead.
