Stepping into a true starter role for the first time in the league at age 28, Dominik Hasek entered the limelight in 1993, a time in which Patrick Roy was cementing himself as an NHL great and Martin Brodeur was already the next up-and-coming star goalie. Hasek wasn’t supposed to be in the starter’s net — a Grant Fuhr injury forced him into the position — but the Sabres’ goaltender forced his way into a permanent slot being the workhorse.

    The author has a Twitter account if you want to yell at him. Ironically, he’s a Devils fan.

      I’m a non-tweeter so it’s all for you!

      And of course he is, out here looking for people like me to go and say Brodeur is objectively better. Fishing for compliments.
