Carter Hart was just spectacular for the most part in just his first full season for the Flyers. Harttacular posted a 24-13-3 record, with a 2.42 GAA (8th best in the league), and a .914 Save Percentage. What more could one expect from a 21-year-old in just his first full season in the NHL. At home he was lights out accumulating a 20-3-2 record, 1.63 GAA, and a .943 Save Percentage. Simply put, Hart proved he was the franchise Goaltender the Flyers have needed since President Reagan was in office. There is one more thing, his season was so good it was comparable to a Goaltending legend in Martin Brodeur.

Brodeur’s first season was a really good one in 1993-94. He finished the year 27-11-8 in 47 games played. Moreover, Brodeur posted a 2.40 GAA, with a .915 Save Percentage. Hart as previously stated posted a 24-13-3 record in 43 games played, with a 2.42 GAA, and .914 Save Percentage. This is just insane that the Flyers could terrorize their division for once with a franchise netminder, much like Brodeur terrorized the Flyers and the Atlantic Division for years.
