Brodeur has only missed three games since early November - and played the Olympics during that time.  So why are we so skittish about wearing out Huet?



Because Brodeur is a different goalie, he's an iron man who's used to playing 70 plus games, he's done this his whole career. Huet is in his first real NHL starting role, and his career high is 41 games. Not all goalies are capable of playing 70+ games without getting worn out, infact most European goalies need time to get condition for the heavy load of an NHL season from what I've seen over the years.

Started watching about mid way through the 2nd period and the way Brodeur is playing makes it very difficult for the Habs to score.  No doubt about it he is a Habs killer.  Is the penalty of obstruction not being called anymore?  I noticed at least 2 occasions where a Jersey player prevented an Habs player from getting the puck along the boards by blocking his progress. The Habs player did not have possession of the puck.   Is that not a penalty or am I wrong.  This seems to be a big part of the Devils system and allows them to play the trap perfectly.
Sad night, the Laffs are leading Philly 4-1 going into the 3rd. 




This is going to be the big question come playoff time. Obstructions, clutching and grabbing, will they call those? Or are they going to keep calling the meaningless little hooks?
