Oh Dawn, if you were here, I’d kiss you like this. Thanks for all your support through the years even though you don’t like my team much.
Most career wins, breaking Patrick Roy’s record of 551.
Most playoff shutout 24.
Most minutes played, breaking Patrick Roy’s record of 60,235 minutes.
Most games played, surpassing Patrick Roy’s record of 1029.
Most regular-season shutouts, breaking Terry Sawchuck’s record of 103.
He’s now also played a play-off game in every decade of his career as a teenager to his forties.
And if anyone saw the interview on Sunday, he was unfortunate enough to have Pierre McGuire wish him “Happy Birthday, mon ami.” YUCK –A-ROO! Short of Pierre kissing him and sitting on his lap during the interview, Pierre was more than his usual sycophantic self. I not only wanted a bath, I threw up in my mouth a little bit. But as classy as Martin is, he took it in stride, smiled and got the hell out of there before Pierre could slime him anymore!
So a day late, but not any less enthusiastic, A BIG WUYS – WE KNOW YOU ARE NOT! – HAPPY 40th BIRTHDAY MARTIN BRODEUR!
WE LOVE YOU!

And Happy Birthday to Moooooooooose! Back up goalie or not, you are still awesome and I love you!! (Moose’s birthday was on Saturday, turned 39).!!!
Good posts today WUYS!
I’ve never been a Devils fan (except for this series!), but I have ALWAYS respected Marty!!! He is one of the Greatest to ever play the game & it’s awesome to see him play as well now as he always has!! Welcome to the 40 Club, Marty. Beat those Philthy Flyers like, as Mike Lange would say, “a rented mule”!!!!
