    NEWARK, N.J. -- Martin Brodeur has been the masked face of the New Jersey Devils for 20 years. But on the eve of the NHL trade deadline, both the goalie and the only team he has played for are contemplating an uncertain future. "I dont know," Brodeur said about the possibility of being traded following a 20-save effort in a 4-3 victory over the Detroit Red Wings on Tuesday night that could have marked his final game with New Jersey. "I had some good conversations with Lou (Devils president and general manager Lou Lamoriello) about what I want to do for the rest of the year and maybe next year. From there you know its up to him to make the decision that he wants. He knows exactly where I stand." Stephen Gionta scored the tiebreaking goal with under 37 seconds left to lift New Jersey to victory. Adam Henrique, Marek Zidlicky, and Travis Zajac also had goals for the Devils (27-23-13), who closed within one point of Detroit (28-21-12). "Thats a game we cant lose," Devils coach Pete DeBoer said. "I would have taken (a win any way). Winning in regulation was huge." Johan Franzen, Brendan Smith and Todd Bertuzzi scored for the Red Wings against Brodeur, who has been the subject of trade rumours leading up to Wednesdays deadline. "Well see whats going to happen," said Brodeur, who has a no-trade clause and stated he wasnt asked to waive it. Gionta put the Devils ahead for good when he tipped Mark Faynes point shot past Jimmy Howard for the winning goal. "Its always nice scoring goals, especially one that can help out the team in a big way," Gionta said. Howard finished with 25 saves. "Its not what we wanted to see happen here," Howard said. "To let one slip away is frustrating." Zajac snapped a 2-2 tie with his 10th of the season 6:30 into the third period. Ryane Clowe forced a turnover in the defensive zone with a hit, and Zajac and Jaromir Jagr quickly moved the puck up ice. But the lead lasted for only 3:13 when Bertuzzi tied it with a power-play goal. Henrique opened the scoring 27 seconds into the game when his shot pinballed in off of the sprawled Howard. Franzen tied it for Detroit 11 minutes later with his 13th goal during a power play. Franzen stole the puck from forward Dainius Zubrus in the left circle and manoeuvred along the goal line before snapping a quick shot past Brodeur. Detroit went ahead 2-1 on Smiths second of the season 7:03 into the second period, but Zidlicky got New Jersey even on a power play 42 seconds into the third. The Red Wings were 2 for 4 on the advantage. New Jersey went 1 for 3. Devils fans chanted Brodeurs name during the national anthem and throughout the game. "It was great," Brodeur said. "I didnt expect that. I think (reporters) did a good job to kind of create maybe a sellout for the Devils. But definitely it was nice that the fans reacted like that. "I havent played since Jan. 7 here in this building. Its been a while so I was happy to get back in here and play well enough to win." The 41-year-old goalie is the NHLs career leader in wins, minutes played, games played, losses and shutouts. He has been awarded the Vezina Trophy as the leagues top goalie four times and is a three-time Stanley Cup champion while playing his entire career with the Devils. "I use consummate pro. "You never see any breaks," DeBoer said of Brodeur, who is in the final year of a two-year, $9 million contract, and has lost playing time to Cory Schneider. "I hope they dont trade him," said Babcock, who coached Brodeur on the 2010 Canadian Olympic team that won gold. "A decorated athlete like him ... I hope he stays a New Jersey Devil." NOTES: The teams will complete their three-game season series on March 7 in Detroit. ... Devils alumni will play a select group of Russian legends in a charity game on Wednesday at Prudential Center to raise funds for a New Jersey high school hockey player who sustained a broken neck in a game on Jan. 4. ... Jagrs assist on Zajacs goal gave him 1,041 in his career, passing Hall of Famer Marcel Dionne for ninth on the NHL career list. Authentic Matt Nieto Jersey .

Authentic John Wensink Jersey .com) - Wayne Simmonds, Scott Laughton and Jakub Voracek each posted a goal and an assist as the Philadelphia Flyers thumped the Carolina Hurricanes, 5-1, on Saturday.In the second of our data analytics series on the summer of sport - in partnership with HPE - cricket statistician, Benedict Bermange, looks at the impact a ground can have on a player or a teams performance as we head into the second Investec Test at Emirates Old Trafford… And so Englands Test series against Pakistan moves north to Manchester, which in 1884 became just the fourth ground to host Test cricket. And, true to form, that first scheduled day of Test cricket at the ground - Thursday 10 July - was totally rained off. Master the Data Deluge Learn why the worlds top 10 most valuable brands drive decisions with HPE big data solutions That was the first of a record 29 days to have been totally lost to rain at the venue, a clear seven ahead of the next best, Dunedin and Sydney.Mancunians must have been delighted in 2009 when Cardiff became the 100th Test venue - no longer do they hold the crown as the wettest England home Test venue as Cardiff receives an annual average of 1061 millimetres of rainfall compared to 810mm at Manchester. London only has 594mm annually. Given variations like the weather, temperature, and altitude at certain grounds, do some players prefer certain venues?England captain Alastair Cook will be thankful that there is no Test scheduled at Trent Bridge this summer, having only scored 306 runs in his nine Tests there, averaging 21.85. However, he does have his solitary Test wicket at the venue!Joe Root has enjoyed much more success at Nottingham, scoring 13 more than Cook despite playing in six fewer matches. Surprisingly, Root has struggled at his home venue of Headingley, with an average of just 25.28 in his four Tests.Steven Finn will be eager to return to Edgbaston for the third Test against Pakistan, the scene of his eight wickets in the win over Australia last year, contributing to a career average of 20.92 in Tests at the Midlands ground.Finn wont be relishing his trip to The Oval for the fourth Test quite as much, though, having taken only four wickets in his two previous Tests there, at an average of 45.50.The Oval is also the ground where Englands two premier strike bowlers, James Anderson and Stuart Broad, have their worst Test figures at home.Anderson has taken 35 Test wickets there at an average of 33.51; Broad takes his wickets at a slightly less costly rate with 25 wickets at an average of 32.44. In contrast, Mohammad Amir took six wickets at 16.83 on his last visit to The Oval in 2010.One classic example of a player performing better on a certain ground than others is Sky Sports own Nasser Hussain. In his 96 Tests he averaged 37.18 overall - not bad considerring he had to face some of the all-time great bowlers.ddddddddddddooking at Hussains ground-by-ground record at home, it is no real surprise that he had his best record at Lords - traditionally a very fine batting pitch.  However, he also performed very well at Nottingham and Leeds, traditionally grounds which have favoured bowlers.What really stands out is how poorly he performed at The Oval and, in particular, at Manchester - where his highest score in seven innings was just 16. Other than just the psychological feeling at some grounds rather than others, there is no real evidence to show why he performed so differently around the country.Of course, some players have had famous love affairs with certain grounds. Brian Lara set his two world records of 375 and 400 not out at the Antigua Recreation Ground - renowned as possibly the most batsman-friendly pitch in the world.But it is Sri Lankas Mahela Jayawardene who has the most Test runs on any ground.  He scored 2,921 runs at an average of 74.89 at the Sinhalese Sports Club Ground in Colombo. He is second on the list as well at Galle, with 2382.At English grounds, Graham Goochs 2,015 at Lords leads the way, with Cook on 1657 at the same ground.With the ball, another Sri Lankan occupies the top three places - Muttiah Muralitharan taking 166 wickets at the SSC, 117 at Kandy and 111 at Galle.Since 2000 in Test cricket in England, seam bowling has dominated, but at some grounds more than others.The northern grounds of Leeds (85 per cent) and Nottingham (82 per cent) have seen the highest percentage of wickets taken by seam bowlers. By contrast, the traditional end-of-season venue of The Oval is down at 75 per cent - level with Manchester, traditionally seen as perhaps the best wicket in the country for Test cricket. Interestingly, over this recent time period, spinners have had a better average than seamers at Edgbaston.If you are searching for a home banker, then look no further than a Test match played in May. For instance, of the 33 home Tests starting in that month, England have won 24, drawn six and lost just three. Those losses were to Australia in 1921, Pakistan in 2001 and New Zealand in 2015. One of those victories came at Chester-le-Street - the northernmost of all Test grounds at only 2,429 miles from the North Pole. Perhaps tellingly, England have won all six of their Tests played at the Riverside ground. This is the most consecutive wins by any home side from the inauguration of a Test Ground.Test cricket is played around the world in different climates and conditions.
