Brody is back

Martin Brodeur returns from elbow surgery and 4-month rehab, tonight to face the Avalanche. I'm pulling for him, as he only needs 9 or so wins to pass Patrick Roy on the all-time list. It's a bit of a bummer for back-up Scott Clemmenson. He proved to be NHL ready, and now goes back to the AHL. I thought he would at least be a backup, but this way he at least gets to play. The Devils now know that they have a capable goalie for the future. As Brodeur won't play forever, or will he?  This injury is a bit of a question mark as Brodeur has never had a major injury, much less not play practically every game, of every season. The rehab might actually bring him back stronger, and rested going into the playoffs, for once. Look out for the Devils if Brodeur returns to form.
