Martin Brodeur on Canada’s Goalie Crisis, The Scorpion Save & Management | ONE-TIME ALL STARS
Hockey
In Episode 9 of One Time All Stars, Cory Schneider and Brian Boyle are joined by the G.O.A.T., New Jersey Devils legend Martin Brodeur!
Marty dives right into the current state of goaltending, questioning the decline of top-tier French-Canadian netminders and explaining why he hates the modern NHL's 50/50 goalie splits. He also breaks down the lost art of the acrobatic save—including the story behind his famous "Scorpion Save" on Marian Gaborik—and explains how a training camp comment from Brendan Shanahan taught him to always be unpredictable.
Plus, Brodeur opens up about his transition to the front office and why making NHL trades is nothing like fantasy hockey. The guys also trade stories about youth sports, the magic of opening new goalie gear, and Boyle relives the slightly awkward reality of scoring his first career NHL goal against Marty.
