Very bizarre, by the looks of things it was a hyper-extension. No contact was made by anything on his arm/elbow area,but it occured during a save where he had his glove hand extended.

After 56 straight Brodeur starts, Kevin Weekes gets some action in. Jeff Frazee has been recalled from Trenton.

This ensures that Roy will still be the all-time wins leader when he gets his number retired in Montreal on the 22nd.

Apparently it got hit with a puck earlier in the game

Surgery Thursday and speculation is three to four months.

Wow.

Start the rumours of every available goalie to the Devils.

This is incredible. We all heard that there'd be change coming today... didn't expect this one.

No Brodeur = no playoffs for the Devils. Can they fit Khabibulin? That might be their only hope.

This throws everything into question... all those records he was going to easily attain this year... he's not getting any younger, could this injury be chronic, or career threatening? His starting job with the Canadian Olympic team in 2010... I think this will seal it for Luongo for sure.

Looking at the numbers, they would have LTIR space for Khabibulin, but not indefintiely. A better option via trade financially would be Dwayne Roloson.

4 names stick out for me as vets who are in the final year of their contract, have a significant cap hit, and might be available:

Khabibulin (CHI): $6.75m
Fernandez (BOS): $4.75m
Gerber (OTT): $3.7m
Roloson (EDM): $3m

Or they see what Jeff Frazee is made of.

Combine this with DiPietro's injury and the Rags might start panicking about Lundqvist's health soon enough.

Financially, yeah. Not if they want to make the playoffs. Kind of like Gerber.

Would Loo be willing to part with Legace given that they traded for Mason? I forget how long he's out for.

Hedberg or Lehtonen?

Will this injury prove what we've figured all along: the Devils are nothing but a below average, likely non-playoff team without their goalie? If the Devs stick to their system and Weeks only faces 20 shots a night, they might not need to add a goalie at all.

I guess whatever your season predictions were, you can add 2 wins for the Habs and add 2 losses for the Leafs.

Martin on IR, joining a whole litany of Devils in the training room, including Brodeur of course.

Not looking good for NJ at this point. Any more injuries and they may be duking it out with the Isles for last place in the Atlantic.

I would have a snappy comment, if the Isles could make this close to true. They can't even catch a decimated team. :s
