The Utica Comets, the AHL affiliate of the New Jersey Devils, signed goaltender Jeremy Brodeur — the son of Devils legend Martin Brodeur — to a two-way AHL contract on Thursday.
The elder Brodeur, a Hockey Hall of Famer considered one of the best goaltenders in NHL history, currently serves as the Devils’ executive vice president of hockey operations.
He helped New Jersey win three Stanley Cups during his 22-year NHL career and holds the league records for goaltending wins (691), shutouts (125) and games played (1,266).
Jeremy Brodeur, 26, played in the East Coast Hockey League and the United Kingdom’s Elite Ice Hockey League last season. He has made four appearances in the AHL, with a 2.98 goals-against average and a .922 save percentage at that level.
