Associated Press--NEWARK, N.J. -- Martin Brodeur stands alone among NHL goaltenders.
Marty's Milestones
Brodeur posted his 552nd win and passed childhood idol and Hall of Famer Patrick Roy for the most career victories in league history. He made 30 saves in the New Jersey Devils' 3-2 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks on Tuesday night.
The victory came in Brodeur's 987th game in a 15-year career played entirely with the Devils.
During that tenure, the likable Brodeur has led the Devils to three Stanley Cups and won four Vezina Trophies as the league's top goaltender.

More importantly for Bruins fans, the New Jersey win pulls the Devils within four points of the Bruins in the Eastern Conference.
The updated standings:
1) Boston - 99 points (11 games remaining)
2) New Jersey - 95 points (13 games remaining)
3) Washington - 94 points (10 games remaining)
