Martin Brodeur Games Quotations

Losing a game like tonight is a killer. These are four-point games. We have six games left against these guys. Who knows, those points might determine a playoff spot.

If they had 30 Martin Brodeurs out there, that rule wouldn't be there; nobody would have voted for it, ... There are just too many teams that didn't have these goalies that were ready to make sure the guys that were affecting the games weren't able to do it anymore.

He is Mr. New Jersey. Scotty was a great player who was known around the league, and established in All-Star games and this and that. Dano is pure New Jersey.

You kind of wonder what's next. Lou's going to come in, and we don't know for how long. We're going to take it day by day. You can't dwell on the situation. We play so many games in such a short time, sometimes you want to take a step back and evaluate what's going on. But you just can't afford to.

We got back to the old Devils that everyone wanted to change in hockey. People said they didn't want these types of games anymore. Now we are doing it again, and I'm just hopeful we'll do it again when it counts.

You have to manage your ups and downs in a series to be successful. We've been able to pull through in situations where our backs were against the wall a little bit, but we took advantage of some lucky breaks. That's the way games go, if you work hard good things will happen.

These were big games for us. It's nice to see us dominate them.

It was far-fetched to think about the title. We just went about our business. It took us all these games in a row to put us in this position.

It's mind boggling. You're thinking about it and you are shaking your head saying, 'How did we do this?' We don't say there are 11 games left, let's win them all. We needed a lot of help from everybody but we still needed to win 11 games. I think it's amazing.

It's like preseason now. I guess maybe a memo was sent down to call games tighter again.

It went our way for three games. It could go the other way for three games, also.

I played 25 minutes and 35 minutes in two games. I shouldn't be tired. I'm tired of getting scored on.

It was tough to get up for teams from the West. This will put a lot of interest back in the game.

The doctor looked at it after the game and he thought it didn't look too bad, but we'll see what happens. My skate got caught and I twisted it. I heard it twist and I couldn't get up. All my body weight fell on it. I had to be really hurt to leave the game - we were still in the game at that point.

Losing a game is not a big deal, except you've got to make sure that you move on and get the next one.
