Yeo letting Brodeur decide starting goalies
The St. Louis Blues goaltenders have been stellar since Mike Yeo took over behind the bench, but that could be thanks to a certain goalie coach.
On the day Ken Hitchcock was relieved of his coaching duties in St. Louis, the club also made assistant general manager Martin Brodeur one of the team's new goalie coaches and the move appears to be paying dividends, with Brodeur calling the shots between the pipes.
Interesting that Yeo said Brodeur making the call in deciding which goalie plays when. Yeo said he's listening to Brodeur on this. #stlblues

The results have been incredible:
| Goalie | Wins | G.A.A | SV% | SO |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Carter Hutton | 2 | 0.00 | 1.000 | 2 |
| Jake Allen | 4 | 1.40 | .953 | 1 |
In all, the Blues have gone 6-1-0 since the change and appear to be turning things around just in time for the playoff push.
