Between the Pipes

A foray in goaltending, athletics and development

Brodeur delivers a stack of pancakes on Boychuk

You don't see the pad stack much anymore and if it is delivered it is usually by Brodeur.  Here in this mid-game penalty shot opportunity, Brodeur decides to rub some maple syrup in the Bruin's Boychuk's nose.  In the same way that a player will try to make a goalie look foolish in these situations, I'm happy for Brodeur's nod to the ol'school to mix things up and make Boyo's head hang in shame for getting tasked.
