If Brodeur has a large influence on the goaltending infrastructure in NJ, I wonder if there's a "Gretzky in Phoenix" effect where it's like "just teach what I did" and nobody can do what he did.I wish he didn’t work in the organization. I also fear he’s the next GM for the team, whether that’s in 2 years from now or 10 years from now. So Fitz better get it together for next year.
I’m not sure I like that quote. I’ve really shredded the goalie coach here (who HE hired and brought in, by the way) and I still think he sucks, but I was just posting last night that the goalie decisions with this team seem like they’ve been off for quite some time and I’ve wondered if they’re coming from above. It’s weird Kahkonen didn’t get to start after a shutout. This team has had a problem with running goalies into the ground for several years now. Even if the goalie sucks.
I’m not sure if that quote particularly is indicative of it or not though.
Like, Lundqvist is extremely knowledgable, great on tv, and might even know or thing or two roster-wise, but he would be the worst goalie coach, or the worst person to be involved with the hires. "Sit as far back as you can always on your knees and just get to everything" would not be good advice for a normal goaltender.
