To go along with his Stanley Cups and Conn Smythe awards, Roy accumulated 151 postseason wins, significantly trumping Brodeur's 113.įun fact: If Patrick Roy made it to the Stanley Cup Finals, he was never denied Cup victory.
See the above section to understand who has the advantage in the postseason. Martin Brodeur vs Patrick Roy Playoff Success The extra Cup certainly is a nice advantage, but it's the fact he racked up three Stanley Cup Playoffs MVP nods that's extremely impressive. Overall, Roy's Stanley Cup success as both a teammate and individual surpass Brodeur's own exploits. He also was awarded the Calder Trophy in his rookie year, with a number of Hart nominations. Outside of the trophy case, Brodeur beats Roy with four Vezina Trophies to three. Roy's four Stanley Cups exceed Brodeur's three, to go along with his three Conn Smythe trophies. Roy, though, takes the win here with the trophies that matter. Once again, the list of hardware for both Brodeur and Roy is a long one. However, Brodeur's extra years gave him the boost he needed to exceed Roy in the counting numbers. He also holds the record for most regular season shutouts with 125.īoth have ridiculous stats that have gotten them on just about every all-time record list at either No. He sits atop the all-time list for goaltending wins with 691 to Roy's 551.

Here are the stats that made #NJDevils legend Martin Brodeur a first-ballot Hall of Famer /ciBBHimBIb- Sportsnet Stats June 26, 2018 Marty also has the career length advantage, playing 22 years to Roy's 19. Let's start this arguement by prefacing that Brodeur and Roy, while having some overlap, played in two completely different eras of hockey. Even in retirement, the two remain as some of the most talked-about players in NHL history. Both in the regular and postseasons, Brodeur and Roy shined and transformed the goaltending position. Picking one legend over the other is one of the toughest a hockey fan would have to make, as both experienced incredible success in their respective careers. Since Brodeur's retirement, the two are commonly pitted against one another in meticulous comparison debates around the hockey world. He also has the advantage in terms of Vezina trophies with four.When it comes to the GOAT debate among NHL goaltenders, there are really only two relevant names you need to know: Martin Brodeur and Patrick Roy. Brodeur currently holds 13 NHL records for goaltenders, and was also the youngest goalie to reach 300, 400, 500, and 600 wins.
However, despite these facts, it can be argued that Brodeur is the better goaltender. Roy's Avalanche defeated Brodeur's Devils four games to three in the 2001 Final. Roy also took the only Stanley Cup in which the two goaltenders faced each other. His win percentage of 61 percent is also better then Brodeur's 55 percent. Roy has the Stanley Cup and Conn Smythe lead, but he also has the NHL record for most playoff wins with 151. On the other side, Roy has the upper-hand on Brodeur when it matters most. The lifetime Devils star has averaged 36 wins per season in his career, meaning his lifetime total would be near what it is now regardless of the addition of shootouts. However, if you take Brodeur's 47 shootout wins away from his record, he still has Roy beat 609 to 551.įans must also remember that Brodeur missed the entire 2004-2005 season due to a lockout. The addition of the shootout certainly padded Brodeur's advantage in wins, especially because Roy played his entire career in the tie era. Many Roy supporters will argue that Brodeur got a majority of his wins in "the new era of hockey." Not only did the size of a goaltender's pads get bigger, but the NHL introduced the shoot-out to replace ties in the regular season.
