Brodeur was good but not the legend that his 3 Stanley Cup titles and GAA numbers make him to be... It is no coincidence that he never won another cup without Daneyko, Stevens and Niedermayer, that defence was the real reason of his success. The number of shots at his net was so low compared to Belfour, Hasek and Roy. I would take this 3 over him in a beat, yes Belfour too, he was a little bit crazy but once he got his head straight he was probably the best goalie in the NHL at Clutch time in those 2 seasons that the Stars went to the finals. Especially in 2000 when the Stars were injury plagued and he carried the team to the finals, and the year before his battle with Hasek was stuff of legends, both guys game 6 perfomances was fantastic.
Brodeur, I saw him having good games but I never felt that he was the reason for the Devils success, Cujo eliminating Dallas and Colorado in 1997 and 1998 impressed me more than Brodeur in his entire career. Brodeur is not even a top 10 goalie of all time in my opinion.
