Devils even Eastern Conference Finals with 3-2 win

Just when everything was going so well for Martin Brodeur on Wednesday night, a bad bounce of epic proportions went against the future Hall of Famer.

With the New Jersey Devils up a goal in the second period, Brodeur moved out to challenge a shot from Rangers defenseman Marc Staal. The puck caromed off the Devils’ Bryce Salvador, then the backboards, then off the leg and arm of Brodeur and into the net to tie the game 1-1.

“You have to shake it off,” Brodeur said, “but I definitely rolled my eyes.”

Brodeur didn’t let scoring on himself get to him. He made 23 saves as the Devils responded from a Game 1 loss in the Eastern Conference Finals and rallied for a 3-2 victory in Game 2 against the Rangers at Madison Square Garden.
