Looking over Schneider's stats I can't remember if I have ever seen a goalie with a 1.98 G.A.A who after 9 games has only 1 win,
Schneider is 1-5-3 with a 1.98 G.A.A and a .918 Sv% you've got to think the Devils are not very good but then you look at Marty's stats
7-3-2 with 2.06 G.A.A and a .915 sv% is it just luck of the draw or do the Devils simply play better for Brodeur?
Hello, 911? It's an emergency, my teddy bear's been kidnapped!
[pause] Hello? Hello?

Timely saves is also to consider.
And we all know that Brodeur is sitting way above anybody else in the win column, so he definitly knows how to win. |

Same scenario as Dubnyk in Edmonton. The team knows that Brodeur is gonna let in the odd bad goal but wont have a complete stinker on a regular basis. Allows for more creative playmaking. From what I remember Brodeur is one of if not the best goalies at stickhandling the puck. Don't know if that's still true but it might be part of it.

I haven't watched the Devils enough to really know for sure... in the one game I saw with them (3-2 OT loss to VAN), Schneider was very good in a losing cause, and the team didn't play that well in front of him. I can only imagine that, with stats like that, there have been lots of games like that.
Looking at his stats, in the 9 games he's played, NJD have scored 10 goals total, so barely more than 1 GPG. They have also been shut out 4 times while Schneider is in net. Thats pretty brutal support for any goalie.
Its quite possible that NJ does feel more comfortable playing in front of Brodeur - he's only been their starting goalie since I was in high school  . NJ also sucked tremendously in the beginning of the season, its possible that they're getting better now. I'm sure he'll be fine. |
