[Brodeur]

Its going to be VERY weird seeing Marty in a different uniform.

For sure, but I hope he does well. Chances that he'd start at the Islanders this Saturday?

 

[NJDevs26]

Pretty high if he is indeed going to be #1 there.

 

[Richer's Ghost]

So St. Louis we meet again.

 

[Cheddabombs]

Mixed feelings. Happy for him of course, he still has a passion for the game and it's great he can keep playing. But selfishly, it's going to look too weird

 

[Chessarmy]

Obviously I'm rooting for him to do well, he's my favorite player to ever wear a Devils uniform and the best goaltender of all time in my opinion. Its going to be sad, in a way - to see him playing for another team, but Marty wanted a better end to his career and he has every right to give it one last shot.

 

[New Jersey Devils]

$700k plus bonuses.

 

[Oneiro]

Hope they win the cup. And I hope he shuts us all up.

Best of luck to him.

 

[liquid1988]

Woot! Good for him! Even if he is out of his prime, he has a GREAT team in front of him to pick up the slack unlike some other teams I can think of..

 

[Sarge18]

Leave it to the Isles to be in the midst of their best start in history as I try to get tickets for Saturday.

 

[Better Call Sal]

Go Marty!!

 

[New Jersey Devils]

Happy he's in the West too, it would have sucked to see him on a team in our conference.

Maybe I'll pick up a Brodeur Blues t-shirt if they make them.

 

[Sir Fenwick Corsi]

I never imagined Marty playing for a different team but now that it's here, it's all good. This does nothing to tarnish his legacy or his time with NJ. They moved on and he still wanted to play. More power to him. I still stand by my statement that he took way too much **** for NJ's poor results these last few years, so I'm really rooting for him. I hope he does really well as St. Louis has a solid team.

If any player deserves to go out a winner, it's him.

 

[JimEIV]

I refuse to acknowledge this.

 

[New Jersey Devils]

Hitch just said Marty is going to start Thursday vs the Preds.

 

[Japam]

Hitch just said Marty is going to start Thursday vs the Preds.

I'll have to stream this game.

 

[Richer's Ghost]

Marty should make it known he'll pay the person scoring the GWG the $10k difference to help him hit 700.

Bonus! Martin Brodeur will earn $10,000 for every OTL, $20,000 for every win. http://*******/1wl8Bjd @Sportsnet

 

[RNCDevil]

Weeelp, looks like I'm a part-time Blues fan.

 

[Devilsgrl35]

Hope he does well and sticks around long enough to get to 700. Good luck Marty!

 

[Uli Hiemer]

The Devils being so horrible has made me numb to everything....

Best of luck to Brodeur. Hope the Blues win the Cup!

 

[Zippy316]

What if he gets traded back to the Devils when Elliott comes back. Then the Devils let him finish his quest for 700?

 

[MattEvan]

This is depressing, as we had a actual need and role for him here.

 

[HBK27]

For sure, but I hope he does well. Chances that he'd start at the Islanders this Saturday?

Oh crap...might have to make the trip out to LI if that's the case...would love to see Marty play one more time.

 

[HBK27]

This is depressing, as we had a actual need and role for him here.

And with the season quickly spiraling into the abyss, watching Marty chase 700 wins would've actually been a bright spot.

 

[Benedict Parisechuk]

He can do whatever he wants. It won't change his legacy here. Will be weird to see what happens when Elliot comes back though.
