Martin Brodeur

The Devils' first-ballot Hall of Famer is in his hometown today ..... not to beat the crap out of the Canadiens but to promote hockey equipment.

Brodeur spoke, and Pat Hickey listened.

On Scott Cullen's TSN blog:

Ring ... ring ... ring: "Hello, Lou! We've got this guy named Jaroslav Halak ..."

More likely dance partners: Chicago or Edmonton.
