Legendary goaltender Martin Brodeur dropped the puck at the ceremonial faceoff for Saturday's game between the Washington Capitals and New Jersey Devils, and it wasn't the captains who participated.
On this occasion, All-Star goaltenders Braden Holtby and Cory Schneider were chosen to take part, and all three appeared to enjoy the moment.
