Report: Doug Armstrong may offer Martin Brodeur a front office job

Ohio

Martin Brodeur is currently enjoying his one-week leave of absence and is debating his future in the NHL and with the St. Louis Blues. It seems like Brodeur has a couple of options: Remain as the third netminder with the Blues or mutually terminate his contract with the Blues and try to find work somewhere else. The second option has seemed like the most likely scenario considering the 42-year-old is wasting away the final moments of his career in the press box.

It turns out there might be a third option few people have considered. A report from TSN suggests that Doug Armstrong might offer Brodeur a front office role. There’s no indication on what kind of job that would be outside of the vague “managerial” term, but it’s an interesting possibility.

Would Brodeur accept a job? Maybe, but it’s likely it’d only be a short-term position. It’s pretty difficult to imagine Brodeur working in any front office other than New Jersey.
