that is quite possibly the greatest save in the video-recorded history of hockey. one reason is because brodeur takes lemieux's bait, but still saves it on the other side of the net. as a goalie myself, i know that that is an impressive feat. charbel2477's comment clearly demonstrates that he has never been in goal before. i would say that many of hasek's saves were luck, but that brodeur save was not. he (miraculously) read it the whole way.
Shows the difference between pre and post lockout with the way Niedermayer is trying to can open Lemieux's hands

My favorite part is when Lemieux taps Marty with his stick at the end as to say good job. That shows class and respect. Love it!

Only because he's French. Any other goalie he wouldn't bother.

He waited forever for Brodeur to get up... just so he could give him the props.
