Martin Brodeur (born 1972) is a Canadian
ice hockeygoaltender who has played his entire 19-year
National Hockey League (NHL) career with the
New Jersey Devils. He has won three
Stanley Cup championships and has been in the playoffs every year but two. Brodeur has won two Olympic
gold medals with
Team Canada in the
2002 and
2010Winter Olympic Games, as well as several other medals with Team Canada in other international competitions. Brodeur is the NHL's all-time leader in regular season wins, losses,
shutouts, and games played, and holds numerous other league and franchise records. Brodeur won at least 35 games in every season between
1996–97 and
2007–08, and is the only goalie in NHL history with eight 40-win seasons. He is a four-time
Vezina Trophy winner, a five-time
Jennings Trophy winner, a ten-time
NHL All-Star, a
Calder Memorial Trophy winner, and one of only two NHL goaltenders to have scored goals in both the regular season and the playoffs. Brodeur uses a
hybrid style of goaltending by
standing up more than
butterfly style goalies. Brodeur's prowess in puck handling directly led the NHL to change its rules regarding when goalies were allowed to handle the puck outside of the goal crease. (more...)
