Brodeur closing in on record as Devils meet Coyotes

Mar 12, 2009 - 4:41 AM Phoenix (28-33-6) at New Jersey (43-20-3), 7:00 pm EDT

NEWARK, New Jersey (Ticker) -- Martin Brodeur will look to inch closer to the all-time wins record when the New Jersey host the Phoenix Coyotes on Thursday.

Brodeur made 35 saves and captain Jamie Langenbrunner recorded a goal and an assist as the

Devils on Tuesday skated to a 3-2 victory over the Calgary Flames.

With the victory, Brodeur moved within two of tying Hall of Famer Patrick Roy (551) for first place on the all-time list. He could have a chance to match the mark in his hometown of Montreal on Saturday.

"It's still alive, we still have that chance," Brodeur said. "I've done all that (ticket-buying). The people I care about, I'll buy tickets for (on Saturday). Not that I don't care about the other ones, but when you get older, you smarten up about these things."

The Coyotes are coming off Tuesday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Detroit Red Wings. Martin Hanzal and captain Shane Doan scored for Phoenix, which has dropped three straight games and six of its last seven (1-5-1).
