He goes to the Blues because the Devils didn't want him to finish the remainder of his career there? Cmon?!.. He played how many more games after the move?
And the Blues thought an over the hill Brodeur was the answer?..
No.. I don't think so. I think the Blues offered him a spot to play a few more games and mentor Elliot and Allan a bit prior to the playoffs. Why not on the Blues part? No risk.
But the Devils and Lamarello parting ways with Marty?.. Something was said/ happened that you don't come back from or Lou went too far..
Anyway... Haha!
Good for Marty Brodeur! Was the next great Franco goalie and always a class act.

I agree that it's very odd how Brodeur isn't with the Devil's post-career. For years we heard from Lou and Brodeur himself that a position was his in the Devil's organization once he retired. I can understand going to the Blues to try for one last run. But now staying in the Blues front office for the foreseeable future?
Very odd indeed.
