Martin Brodeur has been named the Blues assistant general manager, further cementing him as a local team legend.
Well, not really, but it gives Brodeur a chance to transition into hockey management, where he doesn’t have much of a background, outside of a few months this year with St. Louis. His deal is for three years, the team announced.
Brodeur, 43, returned to the NHL this season for seven games with the Blues after the Devils opted to not re-sign the future Hall of Fame netminder.
Via the St. Louis Post-Dispatch:
"I really enjoyed it, but we had a conversation that I'd like to do more," Brodeur told the Post-Dispatch recently, prior to accepting the new position.
